Mike-NZ Posted August 21, 2015 Author Share Posted August 21, 2015 Ok. If i find something that works ill put the config on dropbox to maybe go into a version of the mod.I found ModuleLiftingSurface in the config but no aerosurface. Same thing?- - - Updated - - -Com Col are out of align. Thats why it pitches up really hard and is unpredictable at times. http://i.imgur.com/JmeHDas.png- - - Updated - - -I got it flyin Pretty good. Moved back the col and gave some brick flight attributes. Still needs some work. Still pulls 8 g turns if not careful but its a start. Com is low. It needs to be higher. http://i.imgur.com/yCJqvDp.pngGood job. Thanks for giving the aero a go, tou seem to have figured it out. I can focus on other things while you sort that out.Module aero surface is same as module control surface but more advanced I believe.Lifting surface for body and wingsSee how complex the tail config is lol. That took some thinking and modeling...I will apply your work to mod if you think its good enough- - - Updated - - -Yeah I lowered com to be under col so heavy part stays below lift part to prevent rolls. Just my way of thinking. Ksp maybe dont work that way. Dunno Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fly the shuttle and give me some feedback if you want. If the Col is above the com the aero gets a little wonky. I took a look at the tail config. Oh lord. The tail needs some adjusting. Im gonna have some fun lol.- - - Updated - - -https://www.dropbox.com/s/dlblj8uw69l7sv9/Parts.zip?dl=0 Edited August 21, 2015 by XxDARKWOLF67Xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike-NZ Posted August 21, 2015 Author Share Posted August 21, 2015 Tail is structured just right to have all the features. Conyrol surface, both speed brakes rotating different ways, aeto etc. You can of course change aero but change other things and it will be strange to operate. The 'internal fuel tank' is at models COM. When it drains the engines become the heavy part so weight is shifted there.Set it up so when its empty or near empty the com is at its optimum position.During ascent it will be front heavy but it doesnt matter.- - - Updated - - -Its friday 3.30pm here so still at work. But weekend ahead. Should get lots done hopefully Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also re balanced the control surfaces for the brick flight.. Im really happy with it. https://www.dropbox.com/s/dlblj8uw69l7sv9/Parts.zip?dl=0 I think its update worthy. But thats for you to decide. I think i got the hang of this. Its alot easier than it looks. But i still have alot to learn!

frostsid Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Frostsid. Would you pls remove my name from the video? I did nothing compared to Mike and all of my work is long time rendered invalid, nothing left because all of the changes made till this day. 110% of the cred should go to Mike Hey Jeast, sorry for the late answer.My intention was, aside from promoting this mod, to show my appreciation for the people working on it. And I remember back in the beginning that you were a big part on this. So that was the reason to include your name. But if you don't want it I respect that and I'll remove it as soon as possible.
