Usage

The Rockomax 24-77 is used to provide thrust to a rocket. It is great for small probe landers because it has a great thrust to weight ratio.While it can be radially attached without a cubic octagonal strut and can be used to fit landing legs, it has the downside of being less powerful and efficient than the Rockomax 48-7S. It is slightly lighter, being 0.01 tons lighter than the 48-7S.

Description

Tiny engine! But very useful, good for craft where larger radial engines won't fit. Although, you may need more of them to lift larger payloads.
