Template:Partbox/SolarPanel The Gigantor XL Solar Array is a deployable solar panel. It is the most powerful electrical energy source in KSP at this time, though in some situations the OX-STAT offers better power per unit mass.

Description

The single largest solar array available for purchase, the Gigantor XL offers tremendous generation potential from a compact initial package.

Probodobodyne Inc.

Usage

  • One panel creates enough energy to keep one ion engine at maximum thrust, under the premise that it is able to orient itself perfectly to the sun.
  • The size of the panels, and their look, make them perfect for using on space stations. Now space stations just need some use for that much electrical power.

Changes

At or before 0.19.1
  • Mass reverted to 0.35.
0.18.2
  • (Undocumented) Power increased from 14/s to 18/s. Mass decreased from 0.35 to 0.14.
0.18
  • Initial Release
