Thank-you! This\'ll be fun.

DS1 undergoing trials in LKO. A most excellent use of the scaffolds. Party on. Oh BTW, I noticed that although they don\'t have drag, with a design like mine the centre of mass must still be offset because that cow wouldn\'t do anything under heavy rocket thrust even in orbit except what it wanted. : Typical probe.

Bloody \'eck. My poor computer! How can I not...

Ohhh HA! I\'d seen that.. for some reason it never registered upstairs as worth paying attention to. Thanking joo!

Which flare part are you guys using?

Um. ..

Wat. Camera? Nova? What did I miss?

That was my thought. You wouldn\'t clone the clones, you\'d make multiples of the original.

They have a launchpad and assembly building yet the rest of the planet appears deserted and wild! Petro-chemical refinement processes, metallurgy, etc. I don\'t care why there only ever seem to be 3!

That\'s awesome! Close enough to look like a Soyuz, but the dimensions are fudged just enough to be Kerbalian. (ie. based on Earth stuff). Do want.

I\'m not looking for the \'rip someone off\' angle here, if that\'s what it sounded like. - Otherwise you\'d already have some of my money. Am I remembering correctly that one could donate any amount before release and be counted as owning on the old system? Are the same rules planned to be in effect for the new one?

It\'s very Planet Of The Apes, Nova. What I want to know though is do you purposfully wait around for the system to be in the correct alignment to get full-face lighting on Kerbal? If no, what in the heck are you doing out there that takes so long?

I only saw this done once. I was most impressed. I\'d considered it before, but didn\'t think the payoff would really be worth the technical input. I guess I was wrong about that one.

With that many feet on the last one, if it had tipped over there would have been ...issues for you at KSC. 8) Cool designs, though.

More boosters! ..means you need more fuel. Which means you need more boosters and fuel to carry the fuel. And so on. Keep it simple. Make sure everything is bolted on tight, too.

Can I ask a question about this? Are pre-release 'donations' a smaller value than the expected retail price upon release?

Not like that class will teach you anything useful anyway..

Uh. What?

One of the cooler designs I\'ve seen! That\'s pretty awesome.

Bahaha. Athlon64 + 2gB RAM + winXP. I dont think I even meet minimum reqs.

Interesting. I\'ve done several orbits at between 700>1500m (with and without warp) and havn\'t experienced any crashes. I usually get down low and go around atleast once to try to pick a general spot to aim for.

Or a Mun-sized viagra? I think you\'d need more than the standard amount of RCS. I\'ve tried bringing a really light lander down using just 4. I don\'t think it\'s possible with so few even for something that\'s little more than the capsule, tiny tank and rocket so assumably a larger spaceplane would scale accordingly. I foresee every available surface covered with RCS nozzles. and half your tanks being compressed gas.

Ahaha. Mine chugs like a frat boy at anything lower than 1000m as it struggles to load the new terrain at orbital velocities.

Oh, happens to me frequently. :-[
