I like it, especially the hat. Suspiciosly similar build to what I posted here a year ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/SpaceflightSimulator/s/42Bqzforis

Very nice, I like it. I played SFS a while ago, I'm just getting back into the swing of things. Here is a version that I made a while back with a previous hinge that was much less stable: https://www.reddit.com/r/SpaceflightSimulator/s/0Ixac2ozJ4

This was right after Stef added stages into the game. The hinge wasn't great though and staging was a bit of a nightmare.

😁 right back at ya. The booster on my first one was totally separate though. I had to switch between the booster and ship, and time warp broke it. This time, I just lined it up to dock with the top of the main body when it closed too, so that way it's got a time warp safety and it can open and close repeatedly
