this one sports some wings and airbrake control, similar to the sausage pod, but with this one, you DO NOT want to open the airbrake more than 70% until youre about to deploy the chute.
also, dont try to use auto pilot, it will freak out because its so maneuverable.
REENTRY AND TOUCHDOWN PROCEDURE:
drop from orbit,
activate stage 1 and set slider one to -50
you can either wait until your craft slows down to under 1000m/s or you can perform some manual banked turns and slow down a bit faster.
then once youre getting to below 800m/s find your landing spot and reduce slider 1 to -30 to give you better lift,
from here its as easy as keeping your nose on the horizon until you slow to about 260m/s,
deploy chute, activate landing legs with ag2, and set slider 1 to -100
should float safely to the ground and there you have it, not too complicated.
Thanks, hope you enjoy!
