The Place-Anywhere 7 Linear RCS Port is a RCS thruster used for craft rotation and translation, especially in space, and is fuelled by monopropellant. The Linear RCS Port has twice the thrust as the RV-105 RCS Thruster Block but is only capable of thrusting in one direction.
Currently, it has "PhysicsSignificance = 1", making it a massless part with drag added to its parent.
Usage
This thruster thrusts in only one direction. To translate a craft, at least one thruster on each of the x, y, and z axes are required. It is useful for balancing RCS on a single axis.
