Bug #5198
Updated by Squelch over 9 years ago
It appears this decoupler has issues with struts.
In both attached vessels, the strut prevents takeoff. Removing the strut in both cases allows them to fly.
I have a youtube video of the first buggy craft here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNqODGI8kTc
I'm currently using the completely stock linux 64bit 1.0.4 version, but I also had someone running win32 confirm this as well.

The requirements for this bug are very specific and all must be satisfied.
# The part MUST contain both PhysicsSignificance = 1 AND ModuleDecouple - The TR 38D is the only stock example.
# A part with CModuleStrut must be linked between a lower part and the decoupler directly. - The Strut Connector is the only stock example.
## A part which is less than 25cm in height is below the decoupler.
## A part with CModuleStrut must be linked between the >25cm part and any other lower part.
Parts below 25cm that trigger this bug include:
* Cubic Octagonal strut.
* Octagonal Strut.
* Mk2 Drone Core.
* RC 001s Remote Guidance unit.
* Small Inline Reaction Wheel.
The following sub 25cm parts do not trigger this bug.
* TR 18A Stack Decoupler.
* TR 2C Stack Separator.
* TR 2V stack Decoupler.
* Heatshilds.
* Batteries.
These parts are incredibly difficult to attach a strut connector to.
* M 1x1 Structural Panel.
* M 2x2 Structural Panel.
