Shuttle Lifting Body 1.04 for Kerbal Space Program Released v1.04

  • Changes to Aero.

  • Turning during reentry should feel a bit more stable at higher speeds again. Seems like the 1.0.5 hotfix lifting body fix was conflicting with the parts additional wing lift causing much higher lift.

  • Body Flap values adjusted to bring its drag back up.

  • Body Flaps of existing shuttles will likely flip around and will need to be re-attached in the assembly building. Don't update if you have a shuttle in orbit!
