Never used airbrakes really, because I've thus far stuck to rockets and only dabble a bit with aircraft (my ssto is just that; it goes to orbit and comes back cuz it's out of fuel). However, I'm going back to Eve, and this time I wanna do it without needing to drill and refuel. I also refuse to send a one-Kerbal ship anywhere, so it's going to be larger than it needs to be. I'll go with understatement and say that atmospheric entry on Eve is tough. Big ships tend to flip. Been working on my lander (shield placement and whatnot), but I wanna try to make use of airbrakes. Was messing around and noticed that once the controls are engaged, the individual panel will extend when needed to adjust course. I had no idea (as I said, I haven't used them). I thought you deployed them and they twisted and turned to adjust course. So, is this the proper way to use them? Just engage the controls and let them work? Guess I could just test it and see, but I'm testing a lot of different landers, and it's taking up a ton of time. Thanks.
