  1. I got two of my somewhat marginal fuel shuttles into orbit last night with 0.21.1 - they have very minimal torque and small RCS thrusters, and the second stage gives less than 1 G (K?) so it's an exciting ride to orbit. So, not too much wrong here from my perspective.

    I first read this book, by the late Maxwell W. Hunter II, in 1970. He passed a while back and I wondered if I could still get a copy of his book, and found that a revised edition has been placed online.

    This is simple enough for the average reader without insulting the intelligence of those who have some technical background.

    Enjoy, and I'd love to hear what you think of it.

  3. Problem is that you are using two degrees of freedom to control three degrees of motion.

    What I would really like is the ability to touch a spot on a part and touch a spot on another part and have them move together until the spots are adjacent.

    I'll have a look at the deadbeef stuff when I am out from this firewall and can see dropbox.
