Full Feature Falcon 9 v2.0 • RTLS (Transporter)

—>UPDATE available (v2.01)

RSS ONLY Falcon 9 RTLS mission

The payload features 39 rideshare smallsats and one main satellite on top

Launch S2 into precise orbits or land the booster on the LZ

• Use with Hypatch's SS 2.1 (Light version)
• Quick Save directly after stage seperation to launch and land on the same mission
• If part count is too high: v2.11 features basic fuel tank payload

List of main features:

• Accurate mass & engine performance
• Multiple and varying cinematic camera scenarios (AG6 toggle) and reasonably functioning landing tracking cam
• Random minor or major issues can occur that can lead to a scrub or a failure requiring FTS activation. Default anomaly rate 11%
• Advanced launch profile, SpaceX style by calculating a profile that only decreases pitch (no sudden pitchup when circularizing) and uses a descending trajectory when necessary
• Optimized MECO calculation for RTLS with some reserves
• Pitch/Rollover after the boostback burn
  
• Orbital insertion at SECO, two types of payload release methods and a deorbit burn
• Payload release method as used by SpaceX on Transporter missions (roll & turn)
• Deorbit burn
• KSC and VDB compatible

Caution: speeding up time —> chance of messing up launch (PIDS require decent fps). At critical moments time will be set back to normal, but this is not 100% reliable.

Other functioning versions of the FFF9:
V1.2: Starlink v2 Mini
V2.11: Basic fuel tank payload version
