omg new daily hopper is out??

that launch was insane btw, I was 100% sure that the ship would either fail in reentry or just be uncontrollable in landing when I saw that flap burn through

Same, I was absolutely gobsmacked when it made it through reentry. I thought the ship was a goner as soon as the hinge started burning through. The switch from carbon fiber to stainless steel has proved to be a good decision!
