Hi, I searched long on internet for info about the engine TR-106 with insufficient results. I'll be glad if you could show me some article with information like: dimensions, weight , thrust, Isp etc. I plan in fact to use the TR-106 to power my Shuttle-B add-on (under development) Thank you...

Hi orbiter fans, I started to develop the idea of Shuttle-B. It is not a NASA project, but was a possible alternative to Ares-V rocket. as you can see from one of the picture I already have a mesh for the External Tank with engine pod. Although I didn't start any DLL coding. Thanks, I hope...

just a curiosity. How many degrees of inclination must the SSMEs have such that the STS will maintain equilibrium? I mean inclination with respect to the longitudinal axis of the Orbiter (front-aft axis) thanks, santy

I have been recently looking at the Russian future space programs and "Parom" together with "Kliper" appears to be very important. I might think of developing a "Parom" for orbiter.

Hi everyone, i have an idea of something that could be useful. I experienced great difficulties in putting the DeltaGliderEx into low earth orbit when launching horizontally with own DGEx engines. I saw the JupiterIII add-on by andyMc: Jupiter III-X and i realized that this would be a good...

Hi people does somebody have a link with descriptions and data about the launchers Soyuz 2-3 and soyuz 3, which will probably be used to launch the kliper spacecraft?

If someone is looking for a project, here is something that could be interesting http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skylon this plane uses the engine SABRE: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SABRE

Hi everyone, I am trying to make fairings, and i used anim8or for the very first time. After many tries i made a cylinder with conical shape in front. I cutted longitudinally the mesh in order to obtain a side of the future fairing, But i don't know how to give thickness to the it. I tried to...

Hi everyone, I am finally at the point of making the autopilot for my INT-21. Since i am not exactly the most experienced add-on developer around :rofl: i wanted to ask suggestions. Just which flight parameters would you take into account if you want to obtain a certain apoApsis ? Thank in...

I tried to use a small ship as a payload for Atlantis (shuttle fleet 4.0.0) everything works fine with the attachment. But it is impossible to grapple the payload with RMS. I know that i have to define a proper attachemnt in the payload config file to be able to use it with RMS, but i do not...

Hi guys, Do you know how to retrieve the Apogee and perigee height (from earth surface) ??? Thanks Maybe this evening the INT-21 (my first add-on) will be released :cheers:

Hi everybody, I am almost at the end of the development of my first add-on. It is a saturn INT-21. A heavy lifter used only once in reality to send the skylab station in orbit. Although before the realease I need the permission to post this add-on to public. Basically i used meshes from NASSP...

I am now close to the completion of my 1st add-on and I am in a quite interesting problem. When i go for the 1st staging, i delete the mesh of the 1st stage and the center of gravity stays back in its original position (does not move ahead to the 2nd stage CG). I tried to move the CG using...

I everyone, I am experiencing a problem when using add-ons built on Spacecraft3. Basically i cannot turn or move the robotic arm of the "Resolve" , and cannot perform any operation which requires to press L-Shift + somthing. Could it be, because i am using Windows Vista? or Because my Keyboard...

Hi to all orbiteers, :dance: Does someone know how to assign to the numpad keys, a function that performs engine gimballing? Thanks a lot

Hi, I would like to ask how to shift the center of gravity when i add an additional mesh. I explain: I add a first mesh representing the first stage of a rocket and the CG is automatically determined by orbiter. When i add the second stage mesh on the top of the first Orbiter does not update...

Hi guys i am developing my first Add-On and i found a quite interesting, yet annoying problem. Maybe is typical for beginners :) Anyway the problem is that whenever i am closing my scenario file using CTRL+Q i get a crash to desktop with related windows error. I can run the scenario but...

Hello everybody, Does somebody know, how to switch off the 3D cockpit of the add-on Hermes ESA by Brainstorm? I tried pressing F8 but it does not work thanks

Is it, in your opinion, possible to code orbiter add-ons using visual C++ 6.0? will it work? I know that you orbiter developers usually use VS2005 or even 2008. But since i am a computer science student and just a beginner in orbiter add-ons, i would like to know which are the most used and...
