Auxiliary Parts and Engines

For you to be able to fully utilize the heavy Mk3 Hangar, we provide several auxiliary parts and engines, specifically designed for heavy payloads:

##Aux Parts

Surface-attachable Tail Extender allows to place the aft control surfaces further from the center of mass.

Surface Tail

The Airbrake creates drag when activated. If it is placed properly, this additional drag slows a plane and stabilizes its flight.

The Turboshaft Generator is a highly efficient electric generator that uses the same principle as a turbojet engine (and the same fuel+air mixture), but is optimized to produce torque for a dynamo instead of thrust. Be warned, though, that you need electricity to spin it up in the first place.

##Engines

We provide four radial engines for the Mk3 Hangar for in-space and atmospheric uses:

Radial S.A.B.R.E. Engine is the latest development in the field of twin-cycle rocket engines. In space it is a conventional rocket engine, but in the atmosphere it uses compressed and cooled (almost liquefied) air instead of a generic liquid oxidizer.

Heavy Duty Radial Rocket Engine (HDRRE) is a compact, yet powerful, double engine whose purpose is safe landing on non-atmospheric worlds and moons.

Radial SABRE and HDRRE

Krent700 is a powerful high-bypass turbofan engine that is very efficient at subsonic speeds and works best at moderate altitude of 8000-10000m ASL.

Hover Fan is a light, highly efficient, electric, double-propeller design for hovercrafts and other atmospheric VTOLs. It consumes a lot of energy quickly, so to use it for any considerable length of time will require a powerful generator, such as the Turboshaft Generator.

Or you can order a smaller version and build a light and agile quadrocopter for sightseeing.
