Nice one. But the floatation collar got added tp the command module after splashdown by rescue crew. You might want to hide it with pistons inside the command module.
That lunar lander looks great is it too big, or why is the cargo bay oval?
@Exospaceman A Falcon9 is a pretty cheap rocket out of the box. I would assume cleaning and checking the whole system costs more than a new booster. Though I would love to be proven wrong
Most rockets have really nice user manuals.
Just stick to engine parameters (MarioG has wonderfull ones), dry mass, wet mass (for each stage), dimensions, no gyroscope/RCS if there is none, no mass tinkering (might be ok with structs. Those can become way to heavy) visuals and correct functionality are both important. I don't care if it is easy to fly, but it must have completed the mission at least once before uploading.
@KraZIvan @PlanesofJundroo I took mine down. With the new updates my RCS stopped working correct, the boosters had some faults and the legs didn't deploy anymore.
That will take some time to fix
@Lizardman06 I think it still was an excellent livestream. The amount of telemetry delivered was astonishing.
(they even displayed the temps and fuel mass)
You never fail to amaze me. This update is gorgeous

empty most of the fuel. I stayed with the given size, thrust and liftoff mass. Then it should work. And landing gear. Lots of landing gear

Looks like the Fairing Base disconnects from rocket when activated
