Which vessel is this again?

That must be the DG-EX. Or is it the Resolve? (You want to use for Astra Space ?)

Now that's the one which Tuesday is long awaited!
Looks good, if only the painjob and shape is all we have.

It's all about c++ :sorry:

The Paint and shape are done, since months :sorry:

That, as usual, depends on how fun it is to fly.

Not a particularly special image per se but one I just took after probably my most succeccful flight ever, it is my DG-S landing at Prosper International (an add-on).

I decided I was going to take off from Baikonur in a DG-S, and go the long way round to Prosper (for anyone who doesn't have the Prosper add-on, it's on the north coast of South America, possibly Venezuela). To make a long story short, I fully fueled it and climbed to 150 km, I don't remeber how fast I was going but anyways I got pretty lucky because the only things I was using to guide me were the cockpit's surface and map screens and my orbit was pretty close to where I wanted to go. I sped up to 100x to go around until I saw South America on the horizon, I straightened out (my ship was upside down and facing away from Prosper) and then occasionaly sped up till I was about above the coast of South America. I then had to dive down and use the airbrake because I was going 2000m/s and was somewhere above 20k up I believe, though it may have been closer to 30 or 40k for all I know, I was paying more attention to steering than altitude since I was pretty high up anyway. I have to admit, I did refill my fuel but I could have done it without refueling because I refueled at about 35% fuel and landed at about 85%. By the time I though of recording or at least taking screenshots I was 5k away from Prosper and lining up for landing, so I will have to redo this and record it, I will put up the scenario once I do. (You will need the Baikonur Enhacement addon and the Prosper International addon to run it, I wil check if there is anything else but I can't think of any right now.) The whole think took about half an hour. I guess that wasn't really a short story but I am pretty happy because I am a total noob and this is probably the best thing I have done so far.

Does this mean you've started to work on the DG-EX again? Great!

 

[Schimz]

you've started to work on the DG-EX?

It never stop.
This last 12 months, I didn't have time for the EX. However, I have managed my time for passing tens hours on PS for the (kickass) panel.

Dan's DGIV's with Sputnik's drop tanks. If I fly right, and with no cargo, I can put the DGIV into ~230km orbit Ecc of pretty close to zero and only burn the 9000kg of Drop tank fuel leaving me 100% on the internals

X-Plane USAF skin, I checked to see if I could give the skinner credit, but I could not find info. If you know who made the skin, please let me know so I can give credit where credit is due

--Edit--
Ah yes, thanks Woo, Willy88's X-Plane Skin looks awesome with those grey drop tanks

Thanks.
