[00:08:35] lol.. ok.. some weird balancing going on... sub-orbital rocket with MK1 a few tanks, engine and fins. Coming down horizontal. I was hoping to land in water next to KSC.. using body for some lift and drag to slow down. Instead, ended up actually climbing back up pretty steeply.. [00:11:01] doh.. meant to save everything, had fuel to slow down, instead ejected capsule [00:55:57] check yo staging, man [01:46:49] whoa, I just got more than two full technologies from wandering around the KSC with Basic Science things and no surface samples [02:35:01] It's silly, but it works. [03:27:12] Action: JVFoxy peeks around [03:28:56] so.... was wondering, 1.5.1... ckan has a lot of stuff that works with it still or? Debating on doing something new for this year. [03:33:24] Action: JVFoxy ehs at crickets... [03:37:16] lol.. sorry, everyone off sleeping already? Hmm... [04:12:41] krpc seems to work with 1.6 [04:13:22] derp.. [04:13:33] ok didn't realize lost connection so long ago. arg [08:01:57] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [12:14:21] Last message repeated 1 time(s).

[14:32:08] I didnt see the ground [14:32:14] and im not even joking [14:32:41] you see how ugly the view is because of the canopy, it is even worse in the fpv feed [14:35:17] how are you supposed to see anything in that https://youtu.be/q75pWsMQCis?t=32 [14:40:19] lol [14:40:29] i swear that ground wasnt there a second ago [14:41:01] I dont have dvr sadly for this one [14:41:12] but the altimeter was acting wonky [14:41:32] so upgrades to be done are move the camera outside for a better view and tweak the firmware settings a bit [14:58:02] thoughts on HUDs for FPV? [14:58:27] useful https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/236560222133551104/530416479263260681/glider_osd.jpg [14:59:17] oof.. [14:59:39] I'd just be happy with heading, airspeed and alt [15:00:01] I don't actually have airspeed on this one, I use gps speed [15:00:13] but I intend on taking this plane to long range [15:00:17] so I need more data [15:01:36] GPS = groundspeed pretty much... [15:02:00] like how long range you thinking? [15:02:14] my goal is 11km for a specific mission [15:02:36] but the radio system I have can go to 40km in theory, or even more [15:03:47] lol.. you seen JCatRC's youtube vid? does a 135km flight out, then comes back [15:04:14] Mind you... also has a long range setup on a pole on his house [15:06:39] Anyone not idling? [15:08:23] always [15:10:17] this is my planned mission https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/186186471202357249/530764844945637389/puy_mary_run.jpg [15:10:42] I will do that in the summer, I have a glider so I hope to use as little motor power as I can [15:11:05] in fact you can see a paraglider in that picture [15:25:37] Any of you familiar with the USI mods? [15:35:53] https://66.media.tumblr.com/e41e94b7eca2e308a2b5f33575b61200/tumblr_peg5zdkb4i1wbaa1bo1_540.jpg [15:36:06] and again, no sound in fitrefox [15:36:23] i can see it in mixer [15:36:26] nothing profuvcrd [15:38:51] and again reboot fixed it. really annoying [15:42:38] ? [15:42:59] computer not giving you any sound? [15:43:04] i come home. machine on. no sound in firefox. reboot. sound in firefox [15:43:13] no, there is sound for example usb notification [15:43:14] ok... [15:43:33] i can even see the sound in the volume mixer, yet nothing [15:45:31] not sure then... could be a few things. [15:46:26] had to deal with a glitch on my tablet the other day while at a friend's... windows 10 was doing something screwy.. wasn't till I opened up properties on the folder when the glitch first started, that things fixed itself. [15:47:20] Action: JVFoxy at hte moment listening to ground-ISS com feed... someone's got the balance almost full left ear for some reason. [15:48:12] Action: JVFoxy remembers is using aircraft headset... so flips it from stereo to mono, hears both ears.. derp [15:48:46] i havent seen an aircraft headset that had that kind of switch [15:51:18] Althego https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0970/7656/products/57_093d0920-2119-46f6-894a-74e5e95449b4_large.jpg?v=1530726430 [15:51:48] switch is on teh plastic part that in the bound up cords. [15:51:56] all that old military stuff from the 50s must be stuck in an older standard [15:52:40] its a good headset... got it for my ultralight flying [15:54:12] its a little rough on the sides of the head mind you... just happened to have a plug adapter so i can use it on my pc for listening through.... [16:13:22] time to put like 6gigs of music in my grandmas phone [16:14:09] probably faster transfer than the new horizons data :) [16:14:17] yeah [16:14:22] I hope she likes metal [17:33:58] https://formularfetischisten.de/~packbart/temp/kspd.jpg [17:34:41] exterminate [17:36:01] a lander to scare the locals [17:36:46] :) [17:38:35] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [18:55:57] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OTys3VzCe7o [18:55:58] YouTube - 35C3 - The Mars Rover On-board Computer [19:18:26] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [21:53:18] Last message repeated 1 time(s).
