First orbital launch of my RP0 campaign, 100% under KOS control. I forgot to record the actual launch so this is a testflight simulation. I made it to orbit 3/28/1952 with minimum technology. The rocket was designed to be as minimalistic/cheap as possible. I wasn't trying to copy anything real but it's similar to Vanguard and the orbiter is Explorer 1 from the FASA pack. The KOS script uses raw control. I wrote my own PID control functions and functions for determining pitch/roll/yaw orientation. PID tuning parameters/pitchover angles/etc were determined experimentally. boot .ks file: http://pastebin.com/JiUrkenw attitude.ks: http://pastebin.com/GUPKMeYC pid.ks: http://pastebin.com/v3Mfyqm8 craft file: http://pastebin.com/LR28WsYi
