Stayputnik Mk. 2/Box

The Stayputnik Mk. 2 is an unmanned Command Module that runs on Electricity. It seems to be based upon the main body of the USSR satellite, Sputnik, hence the name.

Usage

Generally placed at the top of the rocket, the Stayputnik Mk. 2 provides full command module functionality. Due to the extremely low internal torque, rockets using a stayputnik tend to require vectored thrust or RCS.

The Stayputnik Mk. 2 features a tiny size node on bottom only. Until the release of the Probodobodyne OKTO2 in version 0.19 it was the lightest command pod.

Description

Our most popular satellite core, Stayputnik is a simple lightweight sphere constructed of aluminum with lots of surface area for attaching things. The Mk2 model includes an underside mounting bracket.
