(comes with demo rocket loaded with program, save program in editor to use in other rockets)

DRGS V.1 is a cutting edge rocket guidance system capable of launching a rocket from any body in the game!

CONFIGURATION - extra help in comment lines in program
DesiredAltitude - Desired altitude for the orbit in meters. Default is 200000

DesiredAcceleration - This is the desired acceleration for the rocket during ascent in meters per second. Default is 20. Lower for less aerodynamic rockets and raise for more aerodynamic rockets.

BodyMass - Mass of planet or moon being launched from. Default is for Droo. Data for other bodies can be found here: https://www.simplerockets.com/Forums/View/4286/Scientific-Data

BodyRadius - Same as body mass but for the planet/moons radius. Default is for Droo. Find data on link posted above

OrbiterStage - This is the stage that will be used to perform the circularization burn. It can be any stage that has enough fuel to complete the burn. Default is 3, but will likely need to be changed for use in a different rocket.

    Indeed. I didn’t spend too much time on the rocket, I only needed something that was capable of getting to orbit. The boosters are just to demo the code and aren’t necessary.
