Floating fuel tanks.. bit of an issue here.

[Motokid600]

As of today im having trouble with reentry. As my craft hits the atmosphere the navball starts vibrating very quickly. My velocity plumits long before I hit the thick air and I get no effects. The craft will then fall as if it has its parachutes open on Jool. VERY slow. And just now.. I couldn't fall at all. This instance was a spent fuel tank I was trying to deorbit. Just started tumbling in place 23km up. Soo.. idk what going on here. This is new as of today. Only changes I made was adding KW sound effects to StretchySRB. My main culprits are that mod and maybe FAR. Anyone else ever experience this?

My mods.

FYI there was no control surfaces on either craft so.. I don't think THAT bug is the issue. But.. wow... 73 views.. No ones seen this before?

You're running into a bug with older versions of FAR. Update to version 0.12.5.2.

Scott Manley ran into an issue similar to this, he had to update FAR to fix it.
