Welcome to the official thread for Cayngrad Space Technologies, a subsidiary of Cayngrad Corporation. Anything that isn't related to MRCP goes here.

To begin, we are starting off with a dual shuttle stack! Two Cosmos 5.0's docked to each other.

Previously, I tried landing one of them vertically. It didn't turn out very well, but that got me interested. So, we made a vertical test version.

Landing Critique:
The first time I touched the ground wasn't the time I landed. I came in quite hard, so I bounced. The bounce was not even, so I started to tilt. Trying to save the vehicle, I throttled up the engines to lift-off. However, because I didn't press one of the buttons, the shuttle went swerving to the right. I then spent the next minute or two trying to regain control. Luckily, I was able too regain control and land the shuttle.
