2-22-07: Version 1.0 released!
DeltaGlider XR1 strapped onto an under-rated SRB, ready for launch from KSC. Autopilot boosts you up to 24km and Mach 3.8, perfect to start your SCRAM engines, saving your precious main engine fuel for a longer trip.
This booster reduces the main fuel needed for launch from KSC to 300x300 orbit by 50% verses a horizontal takeoff.Â
Add on needs Vinka's Multistage2 (included)
and Doug Beachy's DeltaGlider XR1 (RC2 or newer recommended) from:

What's new in v1.0:
* SRB Guidance program updated so the SRB separation is cleaner and looks cooler.
* XR1 RC2 was released, which fixes the no fuel bug. Upgrade to RC2 or newer if you haven't already.
* Vinka helped find a work-around to the multistage2 CTD so the patched dll is no longer needed. Please delete Modules\multistage2_mod1.dll and Config\Multistage\multistage2_mod1.cfg and the old scenario file if you are upgrading.
* Documents moved from "Doc" to "add-on docs\XR1 with SRB". Please delete old docs if you are upgrading.
Reviews and feedback are appreciated!
