[BG] TEMPEST robotic arm unit

Description
The idea is inspired by the robotic arm on the KRAKEN industries rover. It's designed to be installed on the ES-101 TEMPEST spaceplane, but feel free to use it on your own craft.

How to install on the TEMPEST
1. Load the TEMPEST at first.
2. Open craft list, select this, click "merge".
3. Attach this to the connecting point.
4. Remove the ore tanks.
5. Ensure that autostrut of all robotic parts are deactivated, otherwise it won't function properly.

For now it's purely manual, there's no key binding and programming and I'm actually not good at that. The movement speeds of all parts are greatly limited for better stability.

I might want to try building a small station with this device instead of normal RCS docking…it’s kinda challenging.

Stock + Breaking Ground DLC, 11 parts, 1 tonne. Root part is the F-12 rotation servo.

It only requires the base game + Breaking Ground DLC

That‘s totally understandable as docking by RCS is faster in most cases and you have more controlability.
