<Althego>
it looks like a chimera of several things
<flayer>
it leans to the right a little bit, and turning the throttle on results in some spinning until the rear rotor gets up to speed
<Althego>
congratulations on getting it flying
<flayer>
but i can use the throttle to determine its lift, and #2 hotkey to engage forward thrust
<Althego>
i tried helicopters but even a coaxial is somehow bothersome
<flayer>
and i've got the control necessary to land just about anywhere
<flayer>
yeah, its not easy
<flayer>
alright

Did you all get the news that SpaceX filed for a Starship orbital test flight this June?
<Althego>
is that the 3/4 orbit and splashing down near hawaii thing?
<Mat2ch>
Don't know. Just saw the shortnews.
<Mat2ch>
Have to dig further first :D
<Althego>
schedule seems to be tight. still has to make the complete heat shielding including something for the fins, which is hard to do because of the hinges
<Althego>
and the booster hasnt even hopped yet
<Mat2ch>
yeah
<Mat2ch>
but BN3 will fly to orbit no matter what.
<Mat2ch>
And the heat shielding could be easier than some might think
<Mat2ch>
And they wont land any of the stages in a serious way anyways...
<Althego>
in the water
<Althego>
but i expect to collect them anyway
<flayer>
they filed for a test flight in june - i expect it to happen in december
<flayer>
we'll see tho
<Althego>
this orbit date was their original target months ago
<Mat2ch>
oh, wow, full coverage all the way down for the last F9 booster
<Althego>
no coverage for the chinese lander :)
<Althego>
while perseverance had several views of itself
<Mat2ch>
and it does look like the upper stage had some kind of fuel leaking problem?!
<Althego>
btw did the electron first stage land?
<Althego>
upper stage of what?
<Mat2ch>
F9
<Althego>
how do you know that?
<Mat2ch>
in the stream you can see something evaporating at the back and creating ice there
<Mat2ch>
I'm not sure if that is a problem or normal
