Wobbly Rockets


Recommended Posts

So since the implementation of the new aerodynamics the wobbly rockets have once again become part of the game. Is it at all possible to build a tall rocket that doesn't wobble wildly?

Welll, you could mount small fins halfway up and then strut everything nicely. You could start using the good old stitching technique again.

Also have you considered getting the Kerbal Joint Reinforcement mod, it can do wonders in that area.

Yes actually, dialling back on engine gimbal helps a lot to reduce rocket wobble, so will strutting your craft across the more flexible parts such as decouplers.

The joint reinforcement mod did make a huge difference, thanks!

EDIT: How do you change the discussion to "ANSWERED"?
