This part is used for the tail of a plane usually, but as of right now, this part only adds to the craft's mass and thus drag. So it becomes purely cosmetic in most cases. Some use it for connecting 1.25m diameter engines (such as the [[LV-T30 Liquid Fuel Engine]]) radially on a fuel tank when the attachment node is rotated to face downwards, where engines are placed.

The Tail Connector is a part with only one node connector meant to attach to the tail of an aircraft. Its purposes are aerodynamic.

Description

A simple aerodynamic tail for aircraft. Designed to fit onto all standard 1m attachments, this part is the embodiment of our "Let's Fly", line of parts.

WinterOwl Aircraft Emporium

Usage

Engines mounted on multiple connectors

This part is used for the tail of a plane usually, but as of right now, this part only adds to the craft's mass and thus drag. So it becomes purely cosmetic in most cases. Some use it for connecting 1.25m diameter engines (such as the LV-T30 Liquid Fuel Engine) radially on a fuel tank when the attachment node is rotated to face downwards, where engines are placed.
