Project Docking Adapter Pack

[dave1705]

Hi! As promised earlier, I am making an Adapter Pack Add-on with various docking standards. Now, these are in mind:

IDS-APAS95(IDA)
IDS-CBM
IDS-DG
IDS-SSVP
DG-APAS95
APAS95-CBM

IDS:International Docking Standard APAS95: Shuttle-style SSVP: Soyuz-style CBM: Common Berthing Mechanism DG: Delta-glider

These adapters are mostly derived from International Docking Adapter.

That's not all. I'm considering adding more, so those are open to suggestion. I want to add much as possible(or at least my time allow)! :lol:
Among plans are some extra features like: animations, grapple fixtures for robotic arms, payload for DGIV, etc.

Here is the progress, I made so far:

IDS-APAS95

|.

IDS-CBM

|.

DG-APAS95

|.

PS: Post freely any idea related to this concept.

How about APAS to the Apollo Docking Mechanism? For Shuttle-Skylab missions?

If I could only propose one, I think I'd ask for a APAS-95 to HL-10 adapter, though CBM to HL-10 would be neat.

Good idea! I look into, how can it be done.

You mean HL-20? I didn't find any info about HL-20 docking system, it's only concept vehicle.
The add-on doesn't have a docking mechanism, only a white plate. I can only add a separate docking ring to the existing IDS. It's a slightly bigger than this plate. That's all I would do.

Dave, go get this and use the textures, you may also find my docking adapter CBM-ILIDS [ame="http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=6076"]H-10-K Enterprises Crew Return Vehicle v10[/ame]
Use what you like throw the rest away. Cheers

Oh, I appreciate your help, but the link doesn't work for me.

This is an awesome project. It's perfect for people who need a specific or standard docking port to attach to their addon, instead of having to butcher another MSH for it. Mille Gratzi!

Thanks DaveS for giving the correct link... I also corrected my post.
