Hope that helps

Wow, I didn't realise how much interest there was in this project!

You've given me plenty of useful stuff, thanks a lot. Now I should probably get back to those textures...

Hey guys guess what i found. It a cockpit of the LK lander.

That would of been the front view of the astronaut.

Thats behind him.

There is a lot of interesting information on the Soviet Lunar programs here:

Wow great link, im going to put that in my favorites.

this could do a little,for the launch complex http://www.russianspaceweb.com/baikonur_energia_history.html

 

[ryan]

The links just keep on coming, the guys who are modelling this are going to go crazy, or maybe there already are (propably).

 

[razgriz31m]

haha. you're right, but it's better than guessing.

 

[razgriz31m]

@unussapiens, is all paint schemes included?

 

[razgriz31m]

so i guess release will be tomorrow??

 

[ryan]

I guess it would, ive noticed that the people modelling this N1 havnt posted here much, i wonder whys that, there probaply to busy.

 

[razgriz31m]

maybe they want us surprised? haha

 

[ryan]

Maybe

 

[razgriz31m]

I'm just quite thinkin' small time are alloted for this project, i think only the n1 is finished not the launch complex and trains

N1 rocket has 4 failure mission and none of them are successful.
The result is bankrupt.

 

[ryan]

I dont know why the Russians used trains instead of rollout things, flipping over the rocket looks tough.

Launch history

• February 21, 1969: Due unexpected high-frequency oscillations in the gas generator, one of the pipes broke apart and a fire started. This fire reached the engine control system which at the 68.7 s of flight sent the command to shutdown the engines[1]. The rocket exploded at 12,200 m altitude, 69 seconds after liftoff
• July 3, 1969: At liftoff a loose bolt was ingested into a fuel pump, which failed. After detecting the inoperative fuel pump, the automatic engine control shut off 29 of 30 engines, which caused the rocket to stall. The rocket exploded 23 seconds after shutting off the engines, destroying the rocket and launch tower in the biggest explosion in the history of rocketry.[2]
• June 24, 1971: Vehicle serial number 6L — experienced an uncontrolled roll immediately after liftoff beyond the capability of the control system to compensate; the vehicle was destroyed 51 seconds after liftoff at 1 km altitude.
• November 23, 1972: Vehicle serial number 7L — the engines ran for 106.93 seconds after which Pogo oscillation of the first stage caused engine cutoff at 40 km altitude; a programmed shutdown of some of the engines to prevent over-stressing of the structure led to an explosion of engine number 4. The vehicle disintegrated.

There the kind of problems the US had with the Saturn V they didnt know how close they were.

hey stop giving trash infos, we already gave them to the developers thousands of times.

@ryan: since the baikonur complex has a former train station, maybe they used the trains instead of building rollouts to lessen the expenses.

look at him, he's like talking from the past:lol: !!!
