The BFR Starship. 2017-2018 Version (full set)

What is the BFR Starship:

The Big Falcon Rocket (officially shortened to BFR) is a privately funded, fully reusable launch vehicle and spacecraft system in development by SpaceX. It is a two-stage-to-orbit launch vehicle, classed as super-heavy-lift since the payload capacity to Earth orbit is cited as being at least 100,000 kg (220,000 lb). In November 2018 the second stage and ship was renamed to Starship, while the first stage was renamed "Super Heavy." The overall space vehicle architecture includes both launch vehicle and spacecraft, as well as ground infrastructure for rapid launch and relaunch, and unusually for historic spacecraft systems, propellant transfer in space. The first orbital flight will occur no earlier than 2020, with a flight around the Moon slated for 2023.

SpaceX has been developing the technologies needed for a super heavy-lift launch vehicle for many years, with the design characteristics and nomenclature undergoing several revisions over time. Before 2016, the SpaceX large vehicle concept was referred to as the Mars Colonial Transporter (MCT). In 2016, Musk presented a specific design concept for a much larger 12-meter-diameter rocket called the ITS launch vehicle. In September 2017, the design was unveiled for the smaller 9 m (30 ft)-diameter vehicle—one that SpaceX believed would be more feasible to successfully fund and build—which was given the code name BFR.

The launch vehicle design is dependent on the concurrent development work by SpaceX on the Raptor rocket engine, burning cryogenic liquid oxygen (LOX) and liquid methane propellants, which will be used for both stages of the BFR launch vehicle. Development of Raptor began in 2012, leading to engine testing which began in 2016, flight testing in July 2019, and a full-up orbital flight test as early as 2020.

The BFR system is intended to completely replace SpaceX's existing space transportation hardware (the Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy launch vehicles and the Dragon spacecraft), initially aiming at the Earth-orbit launch market, but explicitly adding substantial capability to support long-duration spaceflight in the cislunar and Mars transport flight environments.

This Craft has over 900 parts, so please note that the amount of risk downloading the craft may cause lag to your device. Once the craft has downloaded in your device I do not take any responsibility of your device being damaged or harmed due to the amount of parts of the craft.

In the BFR Video, you may have noticed that there are no Fins on the bottom part of the booster, but I’ve added it in this upload to add for accurate looks. Yet I forgot to added in the video of the interior inside the BFR, but I will show it here :P

Note:
-There are no parachutes in the craft so try your best to land the Rocket...

-BFR cannot have carry heavy payloads, this is due to the craft being a closed fuselage.

-There are no solar arrays added into the Shuttle Craft itself, this is due to how SpaceX designed the solar arrays being to complex to be added in.

-If the craft glitches out and tries destroying itself, simply restarting the game will stop that from happening. If it keeps destroying itself, then restart the the entire game, and join back into the game and launch the rocket from the current location your playing on, (change locations if it keeps destroying itself) best location to launch the BFR is currently anywhere, although recommend on Yeager / Wright Airports for a better surface.

-Smaller device are recommended to use lower graphics, but tho you can chose to go higher by your own preferences.

-The BFR has over 900 parts, so meaning by for smaller devices e.g iPads, mini’s, pro’s, and air’s, that goes along with Android devices, the quality settings of your game platforms has to be low/medium graphics settings, to run for a better resolution results on your current device, that you’ve downloaded this model on your current game platform. If your Android devices has the capability of carrying 200+ parts on high quality, then you are good to go.

Guide to Use of Rocket / Craft:
When launching from the pad (Note that you must press stage 1 to be released form the pad or els emergency cutters will happen) put throttle up to 60% or to 70%, this will decrease its speed of course but it will instead increase its stability to fly and track of your trajectory. After reaching 55,000 / 70,000 ft you may then increase the throttle to full (100%). Then after reaching 100,000 ft you may then de-attach the main booster and deactivate the 1st group. After de-attaching you may then await to fall back down to 40,000 and try to maintain a speed of 300-400mph, and whatever happens / passes 40,000ft is up to you of where to land.

Controls

Stage 1: Separation of Launch pad
Stage 2: Separation of main booster
Stage 3: Fuel / Docking (lights will indicate)
Stage 4: Crane hook activation
Stage 5: Magnet / hook activation
Stage 6:_
Stage 7:

Stage 8:
_

Overall hope you enjoy using the craft with satisfaction and care...May you have god speed to the your endeavour.

Please take at your own risk

    Well, now that we've got some more 'final' details about starship, might as well update it to the current version.

    There’s no need for that :P
    it’s not a competition to what we build and share, to what and how we design in the world is never a failure @Starmang10
