Install mechjeb, then it will be fair to see how much you get closer to the orbit with every try.
Also it will be quicker.

There is a similar sized engine with a higher output but I don't think it can gimbal so keeping this thing upright would be a touch more difficult

Anything more?

>>457253972
Add struts to the bottom parts, things tend to get wobbly and youll have a hard time keeping the spin under control
>>
>>457253972
Needs nosecones.
>>
>>457254397
Already added after that last post. Also, the wobblyness doesn't seem to be much an issue, but I suppose I can add some.
>>
>>457252717
maybe adding some cone shape on top of the swastika rockets will make it go up with less air friction? is there any air friction in the game?
>>
>>457254678
There is, and I already added.
>>
>>457254678
Yes the gimballing engines keep it under control but it usually induces a slight rotation
>>
>>457254850
so the problem now is to leave the orbit? i did not understand clearly why it fell last time, maybe you could lose some weight removing some solar panels
>>
>>457255132
Not enough fuel to get it high/fast enough. Lower orbit = greater speed.
>>
>>457255132
Removed the middle solar panels, they were too congested anyways.

Ela raised sensory egg into her mouth and breathed a slight sigh into a net-shaped opening at the top. It buzzed low in the spherical body that was its main vessel. It was enough, it was just to sit down and recalibrate menthas spirals.

Ela gently put down the spherical device in its cradle and turned slowly on the chair so she ended up with his face ten centimeters from the screen on neuro East. The familiar low strumming of neuroterns cache spoke to cognitive circuits would soon assemble the fragments.

Fragmentary memories began to dance on the screen and Ela fell for their movement patterns. It was repetation of a previously unrecognized predetermined pattern.

>...but no dice. Seems ol' Jebediah should have crammed those Space Craft Piloting text books a bit better. Oh well, at least the next crew is a bit more likely to survice! All that awaits for these unlucky kerbils now is a plummeting demise, while sitting next to an over excited Jebediah.

At 75k try to burn directly towards the horizon. Should get you into orbit without using much fuel

Alright, so we can orbit now, which is good, but we must bring our influence to the Mun.

What now?

Make a dick-shaped impact crater on the moon.

Added a larger central fuel feed tank, so our fuel reserve lasts longer. Anything else?

just for my understanding ... what does it matter if you travel at 1000m/s in space, if you have no fuel left ... wouldn't you only need maneuver-boosters?

I happened to come into orbit right as there was an eclipse. Cool huh?

Just launch the spacetika already.

That is the speed in the direction you are going, even if your craft turns, you are still going at the same speed in the same direction. You need to thrust in the direction you are facing in order to shift your orbit towards that direction.

Thanks :)

Well ... shouldn't be too bad to add some more tanks, right?
>>
>>457273568
also we should update the name to show how many versions we've been through

Mods make this game infinitely more fun. It's like skyrim with its modding. As long as you don't use the BS cheater mods like the antimatter engines or teleporting with hyperedit mods are fair and add quite a bit to the game.
