Thanks a lot Nathan. But excuse me for being stupid (I searched and googled...) where would I drop this?

I could send you a stock "Space Shuttle" for which I use this awesome mod to control one main engine and one "tank engine" otherwise it keeps toppling over. Manually that works, automatically (Center of Thrust) it doesn't... It might indeed be a drag problem as the situation becomes worse when the Shuttle turns into gravity (and exposes more surface to the airstream...)

While Mike is busy working on the ISS, would any of the other Shuttle pilots please tell me if and how you got it working with RSS? It looks so out of place on Kerbin.

Hi all, I love the visuals and size of this mod. But I hated trying to get RO to work and it seems too complicated for my simple brain... Is there any "easy install" mod that would scale the performance (not necessarily the size) of KSP Stock parts correctly in relation to RSS Distances and Gravity? I don't need fancy rocket mechanics like RO does, just something that gives stock fuel and engines enough power to deal with the RSS.

It can always be an error on my end but I did fresh install + RO + RSS and THEN copied the Shuttle parts on top... filtering by NASA the SRB cones where visible (yet listed as non-RO) whereas the SRB stack themself wasn't even anywhere in the parts list. If someone else got it working with RO + RSS please let me know... then I will review my install process again.

Got a problem with RO/RSS... I used CKAN to update a fresh KSP install with RO and RSS + all dependencies. Then I added the 1.7.3 Space Shuttle and the RO.zip adaption. Seems the SRBs are somehow not supported for RO and don't load...?

Just saying thanks for this mod. I found a Stock Parts Shuttle before but at 180 Parts for just the Orbiter it is not really usable. Your build example with just a few extra parts makes for a very reasonable count.

Hi all, I have a Space Shuttle done from Stock Parts which I'd really like to use. Yes, I know there's the Component Space Shuttle that looks awesome, but it kinda looks TOO real life for me. The Stock Parts Shuttle has 180 Parts after the Booster and Tank is gone. A lot of that is in the wings. From what I understand there's UbioWelding continued Plugin supposed to work for 1.04, but it won't work for the wings?

Is it possible to use tje latest version without ModManager.dll? I swear it killed my stock install (parts gone missing). As for fuel/engines, I'm now better at conserving, but the OMS increase seems about right to work 400k orbits so please kerp it Bit OT: can someone recommend an ISS parts mod to go with this (constructing ISS...)?

BTW, possible issue: The "heat effect red shine" stays active even at landing speeds and altitude?

Great job on updating the first page and the packaging of Shuttle + Extra Modules. Many thanks! It does seem that 1.7.3 has more of a tendency to nose back (i.e. tank flipping over Shuttle) than 1.7.2 - or is that my imagination? Anyone happens to have advice on fuel saving? I barely managed to make a circular 90K orbit, extend a payload to 150K and then land again. If I had to meet the "Kir" or do some docking I'd be out of fuel... - payload of 8t certainly isn't too high?

Wow, thanks for the quick and perfect answer. I didn't find this thread since my other settings all remain. Yes, must have been caused by unplugging a joystick.

Okay, sorry for the confusion... I found the 1.7 with the two update packs ten or more pages back in this thread, and now things are good... Might indeed be better to but some info on first page... Great mod. Especially since it's a third of the part count from the other Shuttle I had before... and the added functionality is awesome.

Hi, Latest Windows Version here from GOG.com I keep getting the popup at start that KSP wants to send game progress data to the developers. Trying to deactivate this under Settings/General seems to have no effect. My settings.cfg says: CALL_HOME = False DONT_SEND_IP = False SEND_PROGRESS_DATA = False Yet I keep getting that popup, and it's becoming annoying... regards

Hmm, no one else got any problems with the nose RCS?

Hi all, Great mod here. I'm pretty new to KSP, mostly interested in the flying and manouvering, less into building. So this Space Shuttle is perfect. I like the idea of limited power (Fuel Cell). One thing I'm having an issue with is that the Nose RCS doesn't seem to do much. Yes, it's activated. The separate part has a clearly visible jet of propulsion, but the complete crew cabin with thrusters doesn't really show any "white vapor" and most of all it's not doing it's job in Orbit... I only get impulse from the tail end thrusters. It makes the entire Shuttle unusuable which is a shame...
