Vertical landing rocket stage one
take off, sending stage 2 into space, and land back vertically:
takeoff:
1, push vtol slider to fully forward and activate button 1, after the rudder extended, deactivate button 1, and
2, activate button 2, push throttle fully, hold your ipad to controlled the rocket fly up!
sending stage 2, you could use my model as stage 1 and add stage 2 by yourself!
1, add attaching point on top of stage 1, and add anything on the attaching point
2, set button 6 as the activate button for the new attaching point, as it is the only one button left unused by me......
landing back vertically:
1, put VTOL slider back on the middle and activate button 1 to fold back tail rudder, diactivate button 1 soon after the rudders back.
2, push vtol slider to full and active button 5, 3, 4 in this sequence, you will see the landing gear, top rudders extended, be sure to deactivate button 5 and 3 after this extending
3, hold your iPad at center and watch the rocket to stop rotate by it self, and come into stable dropping towards the earth, then, you will see speed drop to little than 900
4, push throttle to above 10% to drop speed more, now, you can see the airport clearly or unclearly, so you can ajust your viewpoint to on top of the rocket to see from the top, you can see the white air inlet different than the other airinlets, rotate your viewpoint to the white on forward of the others, and then, you could rotate your iPad to rotate the rocket on its longitude to let the white air inlet to head the landing point you want, then, push your iPad to push the joystick to, ajust trajectory forward to landing point slightly, only slightly!
5, when it looks near to land, hold ipad to center position and increase throttle little by little, all by your experience! have you played Simple Rockets by the same game company? at last, I have succeeded in landing back myself!
I will upload video soon later on everyplay and youtube on my channel, enjoy yourself!
