Oops, you'll also need both of these config in the Config/Vessels/Velcro folder. Note: Overwrite the previous SLSPyriosBOOSTER2.cfg with this one here. I forgot to adjust it's empty mass to match the other booster (which probably explains the slight roll I was getting on liftoff.)

Hey Gattis et al., Here's a preliminary set of configs for the Pyrios RP-1/LOX Advanced Boosters. I also created a scenario with a 150mT probe (special config included called SLSprobe) to test this to a 200 km circular orbit. Basically, I computed the internal volume of the boosters, assumed...

Hey gattis, those boosters look great! The No-Joy lift off is the main thrust. Think you forgot to covert from lbf to newtons. It should be 16MN. You have 3.6MN, which clearly ain't enough to lift this beastie! I've been tinkering with a config for the new boosters, to adjust from the ATK...

OK, that's seems to have mostly taken care of it. I did have to modify the name of 2 meshes, however. In the main Meshes folder, slspayloadfair1.msh and slspayloadfair2.msh each had a typo in the name .... slspayloadf*l*air1.msh. Deleted that extraneous "l", and all the scenarios that I have...

Hi John, It looks like the fairings with CARGO in the title are missing from the meshes. For example, in the SLS130_CREWEUS.scn, it lists several such fairings, ie: PAYLOAD SLA1 slsCARGOorionfair1 slsCARGOorionfair1 Pretty sure this is why the cargo flights won't load, but nothing shows in...

Just out of curiosity, do you have the fairing meshes with the **CARGO** inserted into the name kicking about? I may have missed the download with them, but in the 1.1 download, most of the 105t and 130t scenarios call for these panels, which are missing in the meshes folder.

For the Rockdyne/Dynetic dual F-1B, this link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturn_C-3#Pyrios states that the booster would use the same attachment points as the 5-segment SRB of Block I and IB, and be 5.5m in diameter. So that's what? About a 50% increase in diameter from the SRBs? A bit bigger...

Well, there's also the Pyrios by Rocketdyne/Dynetics, which would be a booster with two F-1B motors, and ATK's upgraded SRBs on the proposed possibly Advanced Booster contender list. It's still all way in the future, nothing has been locked down for Block II. Personally, I like Pyrios ... Two...

Plus, in addition to what Castor said, if those other required add-ons are from a different author, including them (or worse, only the bits of them you need) in your own add-on effectively is plagarism. There are exceptions, of course, where an author gives permission to include their add-on in...

It's interesting, the first 3 parts of the video series come across very much as a lament for the naivety and idealism of the mid-20th century scientists regarding AI. I wouldn't call it cynical to look at the internet or smartphones and say to yourself "Really? Is this all?" I would call it...

Hi all, I have a weird problem I can't quite wrap my brain around. So, I mostly run Orbiter on my mid-range Win 7 64 desktop with great success, but occasionally my laptop is all I have handy. Years ago, when the laptop had Vista installed, I had Orbiter 06 and (at the time) the RC for what...

I'd set your inital LOI burn so that your orbit is in sync over the base when it's time for the LM to begin its ascent. This way, you'll do no plane change burns with the CM at all. The only plane change needed can be performed by the LM after seperation. Should save you some juice for TEI. As...

Condolences to Voyager's friends and family. Blue skies and godspeed

Those were my thoughts as well, Ark. The main advantage of such a system are: 1) ability to travel to optimal global launch position for desired inclination; and 2) perhaps see lower facility costs by not requiring a fixed dedicated vertical launch complex. I also don't see how such a system...

Prime OFMM-9 and backup for OFMM-16, please. Just for a bit of clarity, the "TX" vessel is http://orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=421 by kulch, correct? Anyone know how she flies in 2010P1?

Looking good, man!

Years and years playing trombone, from middle school through college. Was in a little dizieland jazz group for a while, but haven't seriously played in 5 or 6 years now. Other than that, I play some tin whistle, and every now and again I bust out my Irish pipes, mostly to drive my parents and...

Hey Garyw, I'm one of those fools who kinda missed the Roll Call but would like in on the project. (Actually, I saw the post, but figured it was a necropost regarding OFMM Mk1 and didn't bother reading it right away. Mea culpa!) I can fly whatever might be needed, and my schedule is pretty...

:cheers: Cheers on all accounts, save one ... you need to fire Cleveland. Roll Tide? Seriously?!?!:lol:
