My attempt at making a falcon 9 and dragon capsule based on images and diagrams i found online.
I'm not 100% sure how i'm supposed to fly it but i have an aoutoflight thing that sort of works. If you leave 19.6 tonnes of fuel in the first stage for landing you can land too (that's how much a diagram i found said the real one has, idk if that's including entry burn fuel or if it's only for the landing though)
stage separation should happen at around 60km and you have to do the 2nd stage burn straight away, i personally pause it and plan the burn because i find that way easier but again idk how it's supposed to work.
Dragonish is my favourite part of this whole build though, idk how realistic to the real one it is but i think it's cool. I had to add some extra monopropellant tanks to the inside of the service module though and it only has enough to de-orbit and i think enough to dock too.
i've not done an auto engine shutdown for landing either though so it's just the first stage burn attempt that is automated
