The '''O-10 MonoPropellant Engine''' is the first stock [[reaction engine]] which does use [[monopropellant]] but works like a [[liquid fuel engine]]. So the engine is [[throttle]]able and doesn't react on the lateral movement commands for the normal [[RCS]] system. It does not show the fuel meter beside the staging icon.

The O-10 MonoPropellant Engine is the first stock reaction engine which does use monopropellant but works like a liquid fuel engine. So the engine is throttleable and doesn't react on the lateral movement commands for the normal RCS. It does not show the fuel meter beside the staging icon.

The specific impulse is identical to the LV-1R Liquid Fuel Engine which can be placed radially too. Because monopropellant does not require plumbing to transfer the fuel from the tank to the engines, it is possible to place that engine on any part.

Because this part doesn't work like RCS the infinite fuel option needs to be activated in the Debug Toolbar to have infinite fuel.
