The design of the shuttle and thrusters are accurate, but only the shuttle will fly while not attached to the thrusters. Activator 5 aims vertically, activator 4 aims horizontally. activator 3 releases from platform, 2 from side thrusters, and 1 from main thruster. Shuttle flies well if started separately from the thrusters and platform but if anyone has suggestions on how to improve flight with thrusters please give me input, it is highly appreciated. Also if anyone has suggestions for a next build I love a challenge.
