What is Aero Heating Production? Is this the official re-entry heating slider? Edited November 21, 2015 by lextacy

Haven't tested but I guess it adjusts how much heating is produced by friction with the air, so yes what you said is correct (I think) although it is not only for reentry, going fast enough anywhere oin the atmosphere will kill you :p

Just an idea to test this out. Slide it to max, then stick a stayputnik on a hammer and launch it, it should explode at some point, if it does not simply add a decoupler and another hammer with fins then launch at an angle. Jot down the time that things go explody. Then slide it all the way back and repeat. Or just wait for someone smarter than me to come along :p

I will try this out on a pod. Ill even do quick loads and make it easier.
