Apollo Lunar Escape Device (LED) Concept / 阿波罗月球逃生装置概念机

🚀 Flight Manual / 飞行手册
EN: Turn on heading lock (Pitch 90 degrees for takeoff, push to 65 degrees for level flight, you'll get the hang of it after a couple of tries)! Throttle up! Activate Stage 1! Start your crazy flight!!!
CN: 打开锁定航向(垂直90度起飞,压机头到65度平飞,飞两把你就明白了)!推高油门!激活 Stage 1!开始疯狂飞行吧!!!
📖 What is this thing? / 这到底是个什么玩意儿?
EN: This is the 1964 General Dynamics "Lunar Escape Device (LED)" concept. If the Lunar Module crashed, astronauts were supposed to cannibalize it, strap the remaining fuel tanks and engine together into this open-air "space broomstick", and manually fly back to lunar orbit!
CN: 这是1964年通用动力公司提出的“月球逃生装置 (LED)”概念。如果登月舱摔坏了,宇航员就要把它拆了,用剩下的油箱和引擎拼成这个敞篷“太空扫把”,纯手动硬飞回月球轨道!


⚠️ Note on this build / 关于本作品的说明
EN: To be clear, my build just looks very similar! I didn't make the insane two-seater version, I only built a single-seater. The attitude control is a bit janky, but it can actually make it into orbit, thank goodness!
CN: 声明一下,我这个作品只是外观很像!我没做那个离谱的双人版,只做了一个单人版。飞船的调姿不是很好控制,但是它真的能成功入轨,谢天谢地!
