Starhopper (w/ flying COPV)

Description
The infamous test article for SpaceX's next generation rocket - Starship.

With this roughly Kerbal-scaled version of Starhopper, you can recreate the latest 150m hop with ease! (It's actually capable of SSTO with around 3,700m/s dV ASL, but don't tell Elon)

This version even features Starhopper's 2nd stage, an overly excited COPV that just couldn't get enough time off the ground.


Action Groups:

1 - Toggle Engine
2 - Launch COPV


Feature list:

- Roughly 66% (kerbalized) scale
- Functioning RCS ports
- Accurate controls (engine gimbal, RCS)
- 3,770m/s of delta-V (ASL)
- Crush cores on the landing legs
- The front fell off
- Flying COPVs

Yes, you need the Making History DLC for the big 5m tanks. You can see the DLC requirements on the right here on this page

Is there a DLC or mod that I'm missing, because when I try to load it it tells me that there is a missing part that was a structural/fuel tank I think.

The "crush cores" on the legs just have really high impact tolerances compared to the tanks, thats it

are the crush cores of the landing legs functional? and if yes how?

I'd just like to make the point that it is NOT normal for the front to fall off.

Rofl, the attention to detail with the COPV.

Hoppy would've flown with 3 raptors had it not blown over and lost its nose cone

No, Starhopper flew with only one Raptor installed. Starship will have 3 of them
