Features:
-Differential engine throttling to steer the rocket on the first 3 stages, instead of gimballing
-L3 Lunar Complex (Block G + Block D + LK + LOK)
-LK includes interior
-About 100 t to LEO
-Realistic engine Isp
-Realistic sperical fuel tanks, with correct capacities
The N1 super heavy lift launch vehicle was designed by Sergei Korolev and his team to send cosmonauts to the Moon and beyond, ideally before the United States. It had a lifting capability of 95 t to low Earth orbit. The L3 Lunar Complex would land a single cosmonaut on the Lunar Surface for up to a day.
Unfortunately, after repeated failures of the N1 rocket, and the US Apollo landings, the Soviet crewed Lunar programs were canceled altogether.
Block A:
30 NK-15
Kerosene/LOX
45 MN
Block B: 8 NK-15V
Kerosene/LOX
12 MN
Block V
4 NK-21
Kerosene/LOX
1.6 MN
I am unsure of the N1's official colour, as there are photos of it painted green, grey, or white. I ultimately chose white.

Yeah I’m using the stock system, that might be it. Thanks for the advice!

@ZeusSpaceAgency are you using it in the stock system? I haven’t tried using it in the stock system but I would think it reaches orbit on probably the second stage. I think the solution to the flickering would be to just shut off the engines and then turn them on when again making a maneuver.

It looks awesome and works well, it’s just that the engines on most of the stages keep flickering and I can’t time warp.

Nice ride. And the whole mission is here. Great 3D work. I will need more practice.
'Bravo' is the word for sure. -

Bravo, thanks, I had to learn to wait after the first tap. Set me into an orbit of 1100x94 with a very interesting flight profile,very logical one, if not the planned profile, I almost took control thinking it would not gravity turn, but thought a moon direct attempt maybe then I saw it by 16km . So what Happeneds if the kid take that l beast on a Droonaverse system? Will they get put in a similar orbit with the tons of fuel inwhat wasn’t needed? My only request or warnings to others, touching either of AG5&7 , the unlabelled ones, will ruin you moon run one of them barely, the other instantly as the Flight Abort . Maybe it is mischievousness in you . 😏

@mrspock15 I don't know if you're gonna read this but I'm having trouble docking, it just won't dock, there is just an invisible barrier between the docking ports
