Indigo - Light Cargo SSTO (1.1.1/2 Only)

[zdkroot]

You specified Kerbals "in chairs" - does that mean I can climb two kerbals into a cargo bay and close it and fly the ship under probe control?

Yeah the right click info is the best. Good to know about the oval shape. What about struts inside a cargo bay, attaching to the frame at the corners? Their drag is applied to the root part not the connecting part right? I think I saw a post about that somewhere. Thanks for your input! I've seen your ships, they're pretty awesome.

And I never replied to @Cupcake... ... your ship is awesome man! I love the look of the clipped cooler/rapier and the fuel pods on the side. Basically no control surfaces at all haha. How does it fly? Great work.

Look closer dear chap, the wings are the control surfaces. Hence it flies very nice nicely indeed if I say so myself.

They'd still cause drag and will possibly make the craft fall apart. Afraid the only way to get the design working properly in 1.1.3 is to replace all the Kerbals with probe cores.

Heh folks, I've decided to scrap the original Indigo and transfer it's name to the Violet. Sorry in advance for any confusion and I hope this video will help ease any anxiety you have about the change.

Hmm. Very cool.
The Indigo vaguely comes across to me as the baby brother of astrobond's B.O.B. (Bunch of Bananas) ship.
