Duna Kuriosity Landing

[Alfondoo]

Hey folks,

My first video on youtube so sorry for the scrappy editing. I thought you guys would enjoy this, even if it's not the best replica it's definitely pretty close.

Nearly flipped the rover right at the end but thankfully I managed to keep it together for a safe landing.

Mods used (that I remember):

B9

Novapunch V2

Procedural Fairings

KAS

Here's a few shots to accompany the video:

I had a lot of trouble with KAS. Whenever I tried to start the winch it would switch craft to the rover and cut the engines on the crane. In the end I figured out that I needed to start the winch before re-entry and retract it back to a locked position, selecting the probe core in the crane for control afterwards.

I cut a lot of the boring footage from the video - selecting "control from here" and fiddling with the staging etc.

What are peoples thoughts on the video? Should I do more? Got a few Eve-ian aircraft en-route at the moment, one of which should be a return craft *fingers crossed*.
