Using stock comms (No RT) I can't get full control using the top (probe) part of this, even landed at the KSC. If I place just the two parts that come with this mod, partial control. If I add an external antennae, still only partial control. Only if I add a stock probe core I get full control, even if I then jettison the stock core.
I'm really confused with this. I've tried it on an otherwise clean install and its still the same. I've compared the config to stock probe cores and that didn't help (Though the ModuleDataTransmitter is set to 'DIRECT', whereas the other probe cores are 'INTERNAL').
Scratch that I've fixed it - add 'vesselType = Probe' to the config and it works. I guess without this or any other command parts on board the game doesn't know how to treat it.
