Tesflight and Aerobee question

[crapstar]

Hello,

I have TestFlight installed and screen shot of my very first rocket with the Aerobee engine. My Issue is the the Aerobee never burns for 50sec. It fails  at about 10secs or 3.6km altitude every single time. I have doubled checked the fuel mixture and doesn't seem like an issue(see screenshot).

I had the EngineGUI open and the Thrust/Drag ratio keeps dropping and the engine fails with the message "No more ignitions left". Is this is bug or a feature? I tried flying the same rocket multiple times hoping the failure rate reduces but it consistently fails at same point. So confused!!

KSP: 1.2.2

RO: v11.4.1(Pre-release v2)

TestFlight-Core: v1.8.0.0

Thanks

I haven't played RO in 1.2, so  I may not be up to date, but...

Do you have MechJeb installed? If so, is it trying to throttle down at a certain dynamic pressure or acceleration? That will cause the engine to shut down and since it is not restartable, you would get that message. 

If that is the case, turn those MJ setting off and you should be good.

I'm glad I came across this thread... maybe now I can enjoy the Aerobee series for a bit longer rather than giving up and jumping up to the Bumper.
