dissen91191 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 As some of you might know if you saw my previous post i built a new shuttle called the Polaris and this is its first time reaching orbit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-CMMJQC0ps&feature=g-all-c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kosmo-not Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 You put the external tank on backwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AncientAstronaut Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 You think you could set your recorder so it doesn't record your cursor and use cinematic cuts instead of moving the camera around and using one shot during a night launch with a low frame rate? It's hard to watch when it's like this -- no offense. And techno music is just painful.One final FYI: the shuttle pitched into orbit "heads 'down'".

CobraA1 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 (edited) Nice vid.And techno music is just painful.Normally, I'd agree, but this seems to work fine. The music has distinct phases, and takes me on an auditory journey. I like music that does that. It sounds like a song Approaching Nirvana would make.EDIT: Went into iTunes. It's "2nd Flight" by Approaching Nirvana in their album Lapse In Time. Kinda figured it was Approaching Nirvana, sounded like their music .

TG_bigboss Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 How dare you make that external fuel tank orbit the earth causing more space debris! =P nice shuttle man! its hard getting the center of gravity right without any help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nibb31 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 The tank is upside down ! And the real shuttle would fly the gravity turn on its back so as to compensate for the extra weight of the ET. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quadro7f Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Nice model, mate, but try to jettison external tank before orbital circulation burn, so it could burn and crush intro terrain. Kerbin is much smaller than earth, and leaving space junk is very dangerous for future flights (especially on ecliptical plane). =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dissen91191 Posted September 9, 2012 Author Share Posted September 9, 2012 I know the tank is upside down i made it that way on purpose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
