BEST DISCORD EVER: / discord
Having issue's with the craft file, will post it when I fix the problem, sorry guys :(
Hold the 'alt' key when placing the engines, makes the engine snap to the node instead of surface.
Damn i didn’t know that after 400 hours
Thanks!
I didn’t know that after over 1000hours
thanks
this makes cargo bays make you not want to die
Tip: Hold Alt while placing a radial attaching part to not radially attach. Helpful for Aerospikes and Vectors!
thanks
Thank you so much vectors are the most irritable thing to place

How to do it on Xbox?
@@Tulin258 I have no idea
My first ever shuttle left the pad and then belly flopped, Starship style into it’s demise
F
It’s a space shuttle sn 8,9,10 etc
help me as well
I couldn’t believe my eyes when my shuttle actually worked. This tutorial was so extremely detailed and you didn’t forget the tiniest things. In my opinion, this is the best KSP tutorial I have seen
Well actually he forgot struts at fuel lines coz when I takeoff the SRB''s just fell apart and fuel lines coz my vector engines didn't have enough fuel
@@MartinsTimermanis-ed6jm yeah, I just added those myself, but I'm still glad my spaceshuttle launched successfully
@@tsunamiman5512There's auto strut you can enable that if that'll help
A trick I figured out myself (though I'm probably not the first one to do so) is put a probe core angled the same as your RS-25s (I usually put mine on the external tank) and control from there during ascent. It has allowed me to pretty much do a normal ascent profile when launching my shuttles.
i had the same idea recenty, although i did not execute it the same way. i placed the probe core at the back of the upper main engine and offset it into the engine base so i could still reach it by mouse if i wanted to. did the same thing with the oms (two for symmetry). then bound keys to them so i could easily switch between the first, the other or the cockpit for descent.
Edit : btw i used terriers as OMS, the puff engines in this game are not near realistic appart from the fuel it's using
Stock Shuttles are a pain to land! 😂
100% agree, much easier than starship tho lol
Wait, you can launch?
@@Tulin258 same
Hahaha did you guys land it? I always put a escape pod and let it burn
I just makes mine a test before side busters and external tank
I recommend the the mod RCS Build Aid. It allows you to see the center of mass with fuel compared to the CoM empty. It makes it a lot easier to balance space planes so that the CoM doesn't shift too far back and make the plane flat spin on re entry.
thx, I'll look into it!
@@Piolet1549 I'm honestly not sure how I ever played this game without it
Or you could just take the fuel out of the tanks while in the VAB or SPH. No mods needed.
This was a perfect recreation! Except for these things: (see them as hints)
-the boosters were a bit too big
-you didn’t put a droge Shute on
idk what to do about the boosters, I could have maybe done a 1.875 liquid fuel tank and then an engine below it but I dont think that would be as good. And yeah, forgot the drogue shoot :(
Still a great video :)
Keep doing what you do!
@@Piolet1549 maybe TweakScale with the SRBs
Sorry I think you meant drag chute
Greetings from the Russian "Buran")
lol
I built a really good looking Buran (not sure if it’s completely accurate) planning on putting it on my channel soon
@@randomguyoninternetidk4014 Good buildings are really good
if I don't forget I'll take a look
(I am Russian and I write through a translator, this is in case something is not clear)
My first (and only) shuttle did everything but glide. I rescued it by rendezvousing in orbit, putting parachutes in the cargo bay, and landing it like a capsule. Now, that's the only way I land a shuttle.
It's really annoying when you spend hours working on a shuttle, or SSTO and it finally works. but then you try to land and it just flips out
These are actually so useful I'm still bad at this lol I've not landed on any other planet than Kerbin. Great tutorial 😎😎
thanks! Glad the vid was helpful!
hi
ineed you look mind video
okay you like and like me
Use delta V map I don’t use it but I heard it’s good
tip: You can use Heat Shields at the bottom of the orange fuel tank
oooOOooo, I like it, thanks
Can’t you just use the top cap thingy for both sides?
@@Coli2603 true but I think its heavier
How do you set the back of the orange thing
that's what I did in the early days
I needed this video
Glad it was helpful
I dare you to try to build the ISS, but assemble it in orbit exactly how the real one was assembled. Shuttle, robotic arms, etc.
that would be very difficult
@@Piolet1549 and rewarding
K, protips from the Buran: use the fairing as a nosecone of the shuttle. It's got higher max temp.
While reentering, set your pitch to 40° just as NASA used to do, it really helps.
And your center of mass of the orbiter itself is too far back. Try to move it towards the front, with some additional weight, like the airlock mockup and docking system.
And maybe put a few separatrons on the fuel tank. I did that, bit that's just a suggestion.
The fairings would look a little weird imo but I'll give it a try. I actually tried to pitch to 40 during reentry, but it would ultimately still spin out. The COM being too far back was a definite problem, thx
I'm having no luck doing a reentry with the stock 'slim shuttle' ... Everytime it just overheats and burns up. Is it worth trying to come in backwards? Any chance you could try it as at the moment I have 3 pilots all stuck until I can be bothered to launch a rocket to get them :( I expected a stock example build to work correctly :(
@@_RandomPea Your reentry angle is probably too high. Set the periapsis at about 20km and point your nose 40° above prograde. It should help
@@MrSlyFox ahhh I set periapsis to 41k like I do for command pods so that might be the issue. The passenger cabins just seem to be made of cardboard :D
@@_RandomPea Hm...that's strange. 41km periapsis should be more than safe for reentries from low kerbin orbit
When mine launches it goes up a little then goes down a crashes. Btw I play on controller
well thats not good
@@Piolet1549 which part? The crashing or the controller
For some reason my vector engines aren't being fed any fuel, can you help me solve that?
make sure you enable crossfeed on the orange tank decoupler
@@Piolet1549 thank you i just noticed i had crossfeed on enable and not disable
Add fuel ducts or enable crossed on the seperator.
Well, thing is with stock space shuttles.... you need a larger external fuel tank. the 5 meter saturn v parts are the correct size, but color is a problem. The best you can do is make take a load of orange 2.5m tanks and shove them into a spherical shape.
You _could_ use a fairing but it would just add more weight to the vessel.
You could also use the 3.5 meter parts
@@scubaduckk Well thing about the 3.75m parts is that they are too small. And using a fairing adds a negligible amount of weight, and the faring orange colour setting is mostly green. Overall multiple 2.5 meter orange tanks moulded into a 5m diameter is best.
@@elijahwills7331 I don’t even have the game(yet) and this just interests me so much!
@@elijahwills7331 I use a mode tweak scale to get the 3.75m parts scaled up to 5m, its a good solution if your on PC and really trying to make it accurate. (Its also good for other recreations I've made)
amazing, how accurate it looks..and even at launch and landing on the runway..fantastic job!! 👍
thanks
@@Piolet1549the wings fall off mine and she ship falls forward or backwards????
Even though ive played the game for 800 hours i still find these incredibly useful! Thanks for em mate :)
awesome!
for some reason when I made this it broke wings, detaching the clamps and fell backwards.
It worked before but when I updated the game I did it the same exact way you did here, auto strut and all and it just breaks and falls for no reason.
Might just be auto strut jank shaking it apart but I'm to lazy to try anything else rn just to be disappointed when it don't work
i was going to say something funny...
but im an idiot and let my cat jump on my key board
XD
Good build but I couldn’t make the external tank nose cone orange

I don't play video games but this was still helpful.
how?
@Santiago Im so when I'm an adult and can play video games I will know how to build a space shuttle.
@@NathanWakeman are you not allowed to play video games as a kid or?
@thateggkid I am 13 and no I am not allowed to play video games.
@@NathanWakeman Oh.. why? I don't see how video games like this could be harmful for kids. Kerbal Space program is even educational
why do the boosters keep falling off!??
Ok, so im having a problem, the engines on the space shuttle dont get the fuel from the orange tank so it fires up but shuts off because it ran ouut of fuel, how do i fix this?
If not you, I wouldn't know how to autostrut, thank you very much!
Autostrut might be one of the most useful things in all of ksp
@@bobbybobby4 Agreed
Glad I helped
Tip: if you click 1, 2, 3 and 4 on your keyboard in the VAB or SPH, you can switch between Place, Move, Rotate and Root pat respectively.
Thank you so much for this...

Columbia at almost at the end
Thanks so much for this build, i have got one of many parts of my space station in orbit thanks to this build
You are not my friend cause your bad at fortnite

Why can't I make and action group to disable / enable the ailerons
IDK, thats weird
go to actions>custom 1>click on the ailerons> configure them to; toggle pitch, roll, and yaw,>press build, there
Man, you are so underrated
This man has a lisp.
And I like it.
Actually, the real OMS engines are bipropellant engines that are of nearly identical design to the Apollo’s SPS engine.
yeah... wups
The ppl who buy dlc: bruh you joke to me KSP
The ppl who no buy dlc: ahh i love the tutorial
:)
still waiting for the craft x.x
I make the space shuttle like real life
Loved the vid! Do you think this is possible to perform this all on a ps4?
thanks! This should all be do able on ps4
@@Piolet1549 awesome! Thx
Tip: instead of using a fairing as the bottom tank, use a heat shield thats the same size. It is DLC and mod free too!
ah I missed the premier. keep up the good work!
thanks!
Thanks for this, all of my shuttles tend to explode
np, hope it helped
you forget parachute for shuttle to brake effective
Yeah I did... wups lol
hey quick thing, I have no idea if it's DLC or not, but there is a fuel tank that is like the bottom of the external tank, it's the S3-900R
Hope this helps anyone looking for a better solution to fairings!
wow you are just better than matt lowne at making shuttles lol
IMO Matt does weird stuff to his shuttles, like why does he put canards and use MK3 as part of his orange tank.. But hey I still liked his vid so I guess it doesn't matter that much lol
I like how nobody makes tutorials for Xbox because they get later updates then the pc, because pc is priority and I can follow this fine, but people say” ohhhh yeh I used mods for eelloo like Kerbal engineer” nope i can’t do that. I’m actually getting annoyed by the recommendations by PC players because I don’t see in KSP vids ‘Oh the vids good ‘or ‘oh you could do better like a different topic ‘all I see is tips for pc.
Thx for listening to my rant and leave agreements and / or disagreements in reply section NO TIPS.
I did a poll not that long ago and got ~1k replies, and around 22% of ksp players are on console. So that's a fairly high percentage of players. The problem I see with catering tutorials to console players is that then they are outdated for PC players. I know it sucks for console players that very little content is made for them, but I think very few creators are willing to sacrifice parts of their PC audience for console players. I think eventually if console players make enough noise, videos will start to get made for them. It's also important to note that ksp has very few creators relative to other games. My guess is only 10-20 ksp vids are uploaded every day that get more than 100 views
@@Piolet1549 thank you for actually giving attention to a comment that isn’t funny and or entertaining and a reasonable answer
Speaking of eeloo I just did a mission there and I got le achievement for visiting the first time
Dude I can’t fly it for like 10000 reasons, 1 it’s too wobbly, secondly the SRBS keep detaching early and 3 even when it somehow miraculously works it always burns up in the atmosphere :(
TIMESTAMPS(:))
You forgot the drag chute for landing.
you were the first one to notice that in the comments lol
Me doing this with 18 crashes of 18 planes i've made: im a PRO BRR
_[but im not]_
me playing roblox space program: oh thx roblox i just got it free
me noticing there are cracked KSP downloads: oh
Maybe you could make an payload tutorial and add a parachute to the space shuttle to decelerate at the runway
Have you figured out the craft file problem? (Im lazy lol)
I think it may be a problem with different versions, so cant really do anything I think
@@Piolet1549is that why mine keeps falling backwards after being forcefully ripped off the clamps even though I didn't even press launch yet?
Why Don't I Have All Those Parts? I'm New
it may be because you don't have the newest version of KSP
you either did science mode or career mode
When I click action groups and then any control surface, I see "#autoLOC_6006035". There is "Toggle", "Enable", and "Disable" same vessel interaction, "Toggle Deploy", "Extend", and "Retract" before the #autoLOC_6006045.
Same problem here. Have you found a solution?
@@splinterdbl9103 yeah. A pencil and paper to copy what they are off this video. I went and tested in game and they all match up.
@@splinterdbl9103 I have it in shorthand and written in the physical order they appear on screen with A being activate, D being deactivate and T being toggle. I also have room in case some other things has the weird code instead of what it does. So far, control surfaces are the only things I've found.
@@splinterdbl9103 I can make a community post on my channel which no-one ever visits with a picture of my notes.
Just for you and any other future readers of this comment thread.
@@scottwilliams846 thank you so much
The thud engine is looking like oms
kinda does but bell is a little small
My shuttle keeps dropping its wings for some reason anybody else have this problem
YES I AM HAVING THAT SAME PROBLEM AND ITS SO ANNOYING
I found the problem the wings get pulled down by the cranes so just remove the crane and do what he first did and put cranes on the fuel instead and that should fix the problem
So now it works but the thrusters on the shuttle aren't getting the fuel from the fuel area so I keep running out of the fuel and going horizontal.
One question, how do I get the "Activate Yaw Control" and "Deactivate Yaw Control" and stuff like that? Otherwise, amazing tutorial!
if you go to assign a control surface to an action group, the option should be there. thanks!
This will be better if restock is on.

You should make an action group to toggle the gimble on the vectors
yeah I should
yo just tryin to help you out
ok
is this a roblox game
No
I don't know if they're intended to be used this way IRL or not but the tail fin of the orbiter and the bottom of the SRBs are level with each other on the real space shuttle, I've built mine to be similar and I haven't had any issues with it falling over without using launch clamps. I think I may have mounted my orange tank too low though, so that could be helping with keeping the center of mass low enough to not be an issue with this
i followed every single step and it could not get off the ground, it just exploded. And i did every minute detail
the fuel is thicker irl
yeah
You forgot the parachute to slow down the shuttle at landing. 😢
Unfortunately alot of people (including me) can't make the orange tank nose orange. I used a bunch of converters going from big to small and a small nose cone. Its not perfect but it's very good. If you don't like that, just follow the tutorial as he says and don't paint the tanks and its like the old shuttle launches.
You're actually wrong about the launch profile. Almost immediately after SRB sep the shuttle is rolled to a heads up position. This is primarily done for better communication with the shuttle through the tracking and data relay network. Your approach and landing is absolutely ignorant to the actual profile flown.
You can do three time symmetry on the vector engines then remove the one at the top from the symmetry
Very Helpful
thanks!

@Piolet1549 the space shuttle actually did have the 4 way RCS blocks at the back but they where kind of not noticible
I have problem connecting the srb inthe fueltank
I had a whole rambling to do why I don't like this design, but i'm on my phone at 4:00 am, so i will just say that it didn't reach my expectations , btw can you make a tutorial on how to land on the runway, after all these years I still strugle to
Well, if you ever want to give me that rant, I'll happily read it. Criticism is welcomed :)
Why do you have way more fuel then i do? Or does it just look like that?
11:17 I'm confused It's not working right click????
The space shuttle OMS was actually a not monopropelent, it was hypergolic fuels. So I think it is more accurate to use a liquid fuel and oxidizer engine.
ah, my bad
Damn, you thought you had subs when you made this video. you got SUB subs now bro, congrats!

@Piolet1549 Pls pls pls make a vid on the Some Reassembly required update landing today at 1pm ET on PC.It’s gonna be amazing
working on it right now!
The external tank could be a little lower, it would also help the COM to be lower for the Vector engines, but great job!
Lowering the COM would mean the vectors would have to compensate even more. Although I do also think the tank was unrealistically high up on the orbiter.
agreed, orange tank was slightly high
Why does mine continuously pitch down at launch. Ive tried lowering vector thrust with no avail. I can keep it straight for a bit then it always goes nose down
When i seprate the boosyer with 5 sepratons it hits the wings
The shuttle didn’t work
well thats not good
I kind of fixed it but it still crashes
I like it
:)
Ps4 is the crappiest thing to play this game you literally can’t use decouples they just glitch and do dum things
really cool, but you forgot the peraschutes
When i move on wing down the other goes up. Any tips?
Hey when I separated the SRBs it went and hit the wing of the shuttle even though I had sepetrons on the SRBs
Pls help
Try cutting the throttle on all the engines during separation, then throttle back up when they are clear. If that does not work, let me know
@@Piolet1549 The time when I separate the SRBs u know that the space shuttle should go upside down like the shuttle will be facing down so after I cut off the engines still it comes and hits the wing because it is slanting.
Any ways thank you for replying
