I don't doubt that, with the amount of work that went into these things. Its just a testament to my terrible terrible flying skills that I run out of power before I can dock with the propulsion stage to use its solar panel.

No, I mean the part that lifts the red tanks into orbit, one one that looks like it only has one engine but it really has two and you have to undock it to separate it. I'll try to find a picture, in any case, Mechjeb works great, it flys them from launch to orbit and rendezvouses with other parts perfectly. Transferring out to Duna is tricky though and I usually have to advance time by about a year before everything is in position. But thats all due to my terrible flying/planning. *edit* That part thats floating off is the part Im talking about. On ships 3 and 4 I have to add a solar panel since the landers themselves are in the caseing and not lasting long enugh to link up with the red tank and it's solar panel, unless I missed something.

I got the whole mission to Duna. As for the exploding, its the 3rd vehicle that I think is my fault for staging too early. The only changes I've made is attaching a mechjeb controller to the nose cones and a solar pannel to the orbital booster since I'm not good enough to rendezvous with the propulsion mods before running out of power but they dont affect the flight at all.

I was able to make it to Duna and back, (with mechjeb's help of course) however it required manual separation of certain stages on all but the propulsion modules since using the staging system caused the ship to explode.

Ill give that a try when I get home, thanks.

So I tryed to use the Satern V. When I whent to launch it, my computer spontaniusly grew legs, leapt from the desk and threw itself out of the window. I turned to Rainbow Dash and asked what could have caused that and she suggested I lay off the LSD. That helped but I still have a problem with the Frame rate. I cant get into orbit because im correcting for issues that happend 5 to 10 seconds before I see them. Any way to up the FPS on ships with 500+ parts? Iv already tryed lowering graphics and closeing background programs.
