Quick question: Why do you delete the pitch motor on the LES? Is it to do with the issue in FAR where it's prone to shredding aborting capsules when it shouldn't? |

To be completely honest with you, I do not know. I followed the same thing that was done with the FASA and SSTU LES. |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Oh, and also the stats for the parachutes need adjusting. FASA models all three parachutes as one part, whereas Bluedog models each parachute separately, so to get accurate stats for the parachutes, you should really divide most of the FASA values by three:
@mass = 0.05613
...
@caseMass = 0.03103
...
@preDeployedDiameter = 1.0567
@deployedDiameter = 13.55
...
@semiDeployedDrag = 1.3333
@fullyDeployedDrag = 266.67
Additionally, FASA includes a forward heatshield part (to protect the parachutes during reentry, before being jettisoned), whereas Bluedog includes fairings for the parachutes as part of the parachutes themselves. You may wish to divide the mass of the unincluded forward heatshield amongst the parachutes, in which case, the masses should instead be:
@mass = 0.08167
...
@caseMass = 0.05657
Changed the values on the parachutes as were recommended by anticlockwisePropeller
Fixed the RCS on the Service Module, all working great now.
