TheHengeProphet Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Interesting graphical issue under the engine there, in the beginning of the first video.[edit]Also, that\'s a very strong engine you have there; you clipped the tip of it at just over 44 m/s. Your cockpit also hit the hitch in the terrain there at around 35 m/s.[/edit] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slew Posted January 28, 2012 Author Share Posted January 28, 2012 i know the small 'flying' return capsules tend to have a parragliding parachute, to produce lift and compensate for the poor wing lift. is this possible to make in KSP yet, or do parrachutes only reduce kinetic energy in the direction of travel?I actually plan on having such a parachute, but semininja is right, it can only apply drag.One question...drag chute? Been trying to get the radial mounted chute to connect to the vanguard and it won\'t. Although doesn\'t the game engine eject the parachute the second your on the ground anyway?In the absence of aerodynamic lift, this is probably going to be the main function of the parachute.It might also be useful for water landings.Also, that\'s a very strong engine you have there; you clipped the tip of it at just over 44 m/s. Your cockpit also hit the hitch in the terrain there at around 35 m/s.All the parts have extremely high crashTolerance for testing.I may lower the values later, but I don\'t want to make the plane too difficult to land.

NovaSilisko Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Love the plane. First thought watching it, though: 'It\'s like a fat Vanguard with toast on the bottom' =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XSP-Xenon Space Programm Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Love the plane. First thought watching it, though: 'It\'s like a fat Vanguard with toast on the bottom' =PI think the fat one is better than your tall Vanguard, but it is okayoO(for the moment ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lefayad1991 Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 so...anything? i mean, i know that part makers don\'t like to be rushed so i haven\'t commented on this thread as of late BUT I AM JIZZING IN MY PANTS with anticipation...how much longer man?

MC3craze Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I really can\'t wait. Are you going to include a launcher craft file? So people can try your Ausplane without fumbling about with different rockets.Seems like a good idea to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normak Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 The Ausplane looks terrific, but I am wondering if it is possible to attach anything to the nose of the craft. It would be handy later on, considering the developmental push for space stations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicok Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Very nice Design ! Thx !However, the shuttle is nearly uncontrolable above 80m/s under 5\'000m. Do you have some advices to handle it ? (despite the current atmospherix model) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kryten Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 It\'s pitching up, at least in my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC3craze Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 It\'s pitching up, at least in my experience.That\'s odd, I usually see pitching down due to low velocity.But I fly planes with joysticks usually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sochmer Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 even for me... it\'s always pitching up with SAS and RSC activated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicok Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 What\'s happening? Is it pitching down?It\'s pitching up. until near 90° up. But i\'m confident in Slew, \'cause the problem is almost certainly the atmospheric model. I can\'t believe a wing build lift at 40+° attack angle, evan a Kerbal one =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
