I will try to dock mid-air to a craft hanging to some launch stability enhancer for.... [search for some good reason to do that] SCIENCE!!!

Oops... It's my mistake: it say "sensor!grav(). I edited my post to remove the mistake.

Look interesting! What do you mean by controlling drag? Does the drag of the part increase or something like that? Also, I think you forgot to put the link for the download. You will also need to include the license(unless you want to have your link removed by a moderator). EDIT:ninja'd!

I have a little problem: I can't use the gravioly detector. When I write: print sensor!grav(). the terminal ouput this: Unrecognized term: 'sensor!grav()' What I have done wrong?

I'm not a specialist, but the cause of this might be the other force on your rocket(weight, center of pressure etc...)

It would require each member(assuming that there is 85 000 member) to pay $705.88 I would totally pay that to send a bus into orbit!

You turn into a kerbal and die because the rocket experienced some structural failure. PS: Because you used f5/f9 you can't revert the flight(yeah, I'm mean). The ability to stop playing KSP without been tempted by doing some small modification to my rocket and testing it.

1/10 I can't remember seeing you but I have the feeling I've already saw you.

When you want to insult someone you say: "You're like an ion engine on a Tylo lander: weak and useless!"

3) It did happen in the movie. I don't know why they did that, maybe to have the mass the reentry program was calculated for(remember that the apollo spacecraft was a lifting body and did, in fact, two reentry).

Is it possible to choose between having CAPCOM chatter or capsule chatter?

Can't wait for the updates. I think that my next hours will consist of updating spacex website!

I know, but I heard SAS. edit: I like how the engine is glowing!

Lift-off! hurray for spacex!

I hope they won't abort just at ignition: it the worst time to abort!

I understood: "Falcon 9 and SAS are go for launch" I play too much KSP

Not exactly. They had POGO effect but it didn't destroyed the engine because it was shutted-down early, although it was a very close call.

It just started! Let's hope for the best!

Just tough of a problem with my "more rocket" solution: those rocket will have to hover around the grasshopper and I don't know how to do that. PS: using another set of rockets to control those rocket is not a viable solution.

I had the same problem. In fact, when if you use heading(45,0) it will make you fly with heading 0 degrees(a.k.a north) 45 degrees above horizon. The if you want to go toward the 45 degree mark(0 degree above horizon) you have to use heading(0,45)

I don't see how it can be a problem Why did I read that post?! Now I will be obsessed with making a code that compensate form angled probe core at launch!

I can't even make two of my "grasshopper" to execute nicely the program at the same time, I doubt I could make it with five rocket and two different design! Maybe if I make the "grasshopper" pitch/yaw a little to compensate?(note:it's just an idea I've got while writing this, I didn't tested it and I will probably think about that later(laziness )) EDIT: It's true that I code just for the fun: I have made a code that make an sub-orbital flight(didn't want to code the circularization part). It have an auto-abort function:if the engine stop working(or if it's disconnected from the craft),it fire the LES. Sometime, I do some useful codes:the last one I did was a (very) simple one that jettisoned the LES once I reach 25 000 meters(I like to be able to do something else while mechjeb launch my rocket into orbit). By simple, I mean 2 lines of codes.

It seem that the only solution would be to use 4 more rocket for that: one for each axis. The rocket would push the grasshopper in the wanted direction. Theoretically possible,but it would required a little more coding

Is there a way to make the engines have different thrust? I could use that instead of RCS for my grasshopper like rocket
