I have indeed tested it with Real Orbit and Aerodymanic Physics mod, but I'm not sure about the Realistic Thrust mod. The placement of the forward thrusters is somewhat aligned with the center of mass and the lateral thrusters could easily function as realistic RCS, but the forward thruster is out of alignment.

It looks like this will survive Deadly Reentry and Realistic Orbits with the Speed Mod, will it work with Realistic Thrust?

Aww, Thank you! Also, @Eekeker it's a station from an old MES mod that I heavily modified, and unfortunately I cannot find the original. I may make a station like it from scratch in the future- keep an eye out!

I loved the design, ur a pro builder

What's the station grid in the back of the fourth picture? Is it on the workshop?

It seems you're correct, I had a misunderstanding of the concept. I'll fix the mistake, thanks for pointing it out

Ah, so you actually mean acceleration, not deltaV. So 10m/s/s. I got around to calculate the actual deltaV of the Hermes with ice in the H2 generator and full tanks, and it turns out to be around 6500m/s

DeltaV is a technical way of saying the rate of acceleration, I find it to be a useful stat to define how sluggish or nimble the vehicle is. In this case a it takes about 10 seconds for the Hermes to reach 100m/s of velocity.

Very nice design, low mass, functional but also with style. Great work! However I don't understand what the 10.5m/s deltaV means, surely it has better performance?

Love the look of it!

I'm glad you all like! I was definitely not expecting this to get this popular, thank you all for the support!

So many fun choices on this, I love it!

Fantastic simple little ship.

Very nice

I really like how the second screen shot has a re-entry like glow on the ship. Very cool little shuttle, subbed and upped.

Man, that's deceptively small!

I think it having a user guide in the cockpit is such a neat world building thing, nice :steamthumbsup:
