Vessel Dragon Fly for Titan

[gattispilot]

Got her to fly better

One issue is I am shifting the mesh up/down . Not sure if you can change the Y pos. So in external view the mesh may be above and so you have to zoom out.

Try this:

G starts the blades spinning.
3 raises the HGA
1/2 rotate the HGA

Keypad 7/9 raise/lower
+/- increase/decrease throttle
8/2 forward/lower
4/6 side travel

So to move forward increase the throttle + speed is on the HUD. the press and hold 8 and the craft will move forward. when you release the key the craft will stop moving forward

Hey John way cool and I do like the controls, easy to fly around and land. While your having a go at this it would be nice to see the one planned for Mars 2020 and have it fly the same way. I think it was just a box the a single counter rotating blade system and small landing legs.

So like this:

yes that it

Here is the Marscopter2020.

So one issue.
The camera view from below seem to be the same as the horizon one?

void MARSCOPTER2020::SelectCockpitView(int CAM) {
	switch (CAM) {
	case 0: //FRONT
		SetCameraDefaultDirection(_V(0, 0, 1));
		SetCameraOffset(_V(0, height+1, 3.121));
		oapiCameraSetCockpitDir(0, 0);
		break;
	case 1: //bottom
		SetCameraDefaultDirection(_V(0, 1, 0));
		SetCameraOffset(_V(0, height, 0));
		oapiCameraSetCockpitDir(0, 0);
		break;
	
	}
}

Looked at vs2. To see if there is a way to change the altitude. I shift the mesh

So tried adding hover to the dragonfly and when I apply the thrust it ctds.

ph_main = CreatePropellantResource(FUELMASS);
	th_hover[0] = CreateThruster(_V(5, 0, 5), _V(0, 1, 0), 100 / 4, ph_main, RCS_ISP);
	th_hover[1] = CreateThruster(_V(-5, 0, 5), _V(0, 1, 0), 100 / 4, ph_main, RCS_ISP);
	th_hover[2] = CreateThruster(_V(5, 0, -5), _V(0, 1, 0), 100 / 4, ph_main, RCS_ISP);
	th_hover[3] = CreateThruster(_V(-5, 0, -5), _V(0, 1, 0), 100 / 4, ph_main, RCS_ISP);

	
	thg_hover = CreateThrusterGroup(th_hover, 4, THGROUP_HOVER);

the scn:

df:DRAGONFLYTITAN
  HGAROT 0.5000
  HGA 0 0.0000
  STATUS Landed Mars
  POS -135.4300000 12.7400000
  HEADING 315.60
  ALT 0.000
  AROT 48.850 22.257 -48.659
  AFCMODE 7
  PRPLEVEL 0:1.000000
  NAVFREQ 0 0
  XPDR 468
END
END_SHIPS

so maybe hover can not be used?
