Description

The Mako, an automated orbital taxi ideal for dealing with those annoying tourists while Jeb is busy doing real rocket science. As built with a Kickback booster and Swivel second stage it can take 4 Kerbals to LKO and dock as needed with the ventral port. A Munar capable version can be created by switching to a bigger booster (Pollux is ideal) and Terrier second stage. The nose consists of an unstaged fairing with fuel cell and supplemental fuel tank for ballast and emergency use.

Recommend either Mechjeb or a second stage fairing for launch. Don’t flare too much on landing or the swivel will drag, the Terrier version is somewhat easier to fly and land.

Suggested Action groups:
2: Fuel Vent
3:Toggle Antenna
