loch.ness Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 I have yet to get a working test flight - but its getting close. I think I would have circularized last attempt except for an odd bug I encountered and poor staging of the main tank (need to add sepatrons or kill thrust while dropping it).

loch.ness Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 I just managed a sub-orbital flight. Didn't save enough fuel for landing and didn't manage to orbit (138 ap at 19,000+m/s). Ascent was too steep, but its a bit hard to fly.There was empty space in the upper tanks and the ship itself needs a couple fixes to help with landings and re-entry. Should be able to fix it up this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonus Eventus Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 I've been working on an endgame content mod for fun. This is the test platform I made for play testing the parts. It's basically a massive over 1200t mothership without the booster stage. You're also looking at it upside down :/Javascript is disabled.

Sorry about that last post It's not just stock; I know the thread title says that it is, but there are plenty of modded creations in here. Go back a page or two and you will see a cruiser I posted that is most definitely not stock What you've got there looks pretty cool, by the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Shuttle Assist To Orbit, which basically means the jet part and rocket part of a supposedly SSTO are separated into two stages, which kills dead weight for the space craft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect stability problems due to the slightly weird design mean it won't get past the wip stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
