Kerbal Repairing Solar Panels

With kas you can mount boxes of spares in your spaceships pick them up with a kerbal place them in eva and also detach them too.

Kerbal repairing solar panels.

Unpacked solar panels are very fragile and will easily break off when colliding or experiencing atmospheric drag so they must be retracted during liftoff aerobraking or atmospheric re entry. Note that as of version 1 0 the unshielded ox 4 series solar panels cannot be retracted once deployed so they are not suited for aerobraking missions. I just landed on duna for the first time and broke all of my solar panels in the process landed without any damage but had to roll to get upright. One panel creates enough energy to keep one ix 6315 dawn electric propulsion system at maximum thrust and a distance to kerbol similar to that of kerbin under the premise that it is able to orient itself perfectly to the sun.

Ok so if your here its probably too late sorry because this method is all about planning in advanced. The kis mod would help too. A probe that ran out of power. Pages in category solar panels the following 9 pages are in this category out of 9 total.

If there is any way to repair these panels even through a mod please let me know. You also have winches eva strutting and whatnot. Navigation search main article. Last edited by ottomic.

This is for stations with large tracking solar arrays not the small single ones. You could send an engineer up and bump into the solar panel and edit your save file to make your panels not broken and pretend your engineer bumped it and fixed it. Adding the solar panel radially allows a perfect orientation at all thrusting directions. Apr 8 2014 7 10pm.

The craft may need to be rolled to allow a decent enough coverage. From kerbal space program wiki. Kerbal space program general discussions topic details. Extend or retract ladders right click on ladder extend ladder retract ladder.
