The TT-38K Radial Decoupler is a Decoupler that allows for staging rockets horizontally and in parallel.

Usage

The TT-38K adds a stage to the rocket and when activated will jettison the Decoupler as well as anything attached to it, much like the TR-18A. Liquid Fuel system modules cannot be attached to a TT-38K, however you can attach TT-38K's to Liquid Fuel system modules. An easy workaround is simply attaching a Solid Rocket Booster to the TT-38K and then stacking Liquid Fuel system modules below.

Description

The TT-38K Radial Decoupler, like most other decouplers, is equipped with a (hopefully) small explosive charge, that will sever the structural linkage between itself and whatever it's connected to.

Changes

→ See also: Version History

v0.8

  • Radial decouplers now have their own module (they used to share modules with the stack decoupler)
  • Tweaked the Radial Decoupler separation. It can now eject lit SRBs safely away from the ship and not kill the crew everytime.

v0.7.3

  • Initial Release
