Movement

Shift to 100% power in order to take off

Description

The big brother of the Falcon 9, which is basically a Falcon 9 attached to other smaller version of Falcon 9, 27 merlin engines in total. The most powerful rocket in the world nowadays.

Annotations

It has a decent amount of pieces, so adding more components will make the build too heavy for all users, and it will take off even worse.

I wanted to make it separate its different phases using detachers, but these behave extremely bad during flight, so it was impossible to do in any way possible. Also, by adding a platform big enough will consume a lot of RAM and make it really laggy.

But at least it can take off, being able to climb 20 km straight from the ground.
