Description

An industrial scale rocket fuel refinery in a lander form-factor. Designed for operation in very low-gravty situations where conventional rovers fall short both in range and maneuverability. It’s also quite usable on intermediate-gravity planets like Duna.

A stock aircraft called L-49 Laboriosa. Built with 94 of the finest parts, its root part is Size1p5.Tank.03.

Built in the SPH in KSP version 1.12.3.

Notes:

  • Like its distant relative, Heavy Refueler, this is designed as strictly a utility craft. As such, it lacks any science equipment or space for extra crew. A pilot and engineer are both highly recommended.

  • Its rcs thrusters are able to provide liftoff thrust on Minmus-type bodies. This makes it very easy to get it into position.

  • Laboriosa runs 12 drills and 4 conversion processes on 2 converter modules for very fast re-fueling.

  • Fits into Cargo Vessel II for interplanetary transfer.

  • Since 1.12.3 has added a countermeasure against robotics glitches, I’ve bound ABORT to toggle the lock on all the robotics and the docking port.
