Posted a thread yesterday on my latest scratch build - a 2-stager with 4 motors in the first stage and 1 in the sustainer. Styled like the Tres, but two more motors than the Tres, hence "Plus 2" is the name. Have since worked out most issues with the design, so retracted the previous thread and restarting with this one.
The booster stage has motors in each of 3 side pods and a core. The core gap-stages to the sustainer. Note that in this 3D image the nose cones aren't shown since Rocksim doesn't have any mechanism to view nose cones on the side pods. However, these will use FlisKits NCB-20R cones...roughly BT-20 equivalents of the Tres (and Nomad) BT-55 cone.
