Okay, the past week I was making a jet/turbo-jet plane. I\'m happy with it\'s flight, it\'s maneuverable, stable, easy to land, and can carry it\'s own weight by quite a margin. But as a space-plane, it\'s no good. Once it gets into a certain region of thinner atmosphere the plane starts doing backflips like a frantic gymnast. ??? I attached pictures of the plane, I\'m hoping to retain the same flight characteristics in atmospheric flight as it does in space flight. Is this even possible? Can I have my cake and eat it too? I haven\'t made a space-plane before either, let alone make one that is multi-functional. What should I do kerbonauts? (my closest attempt at an orbit) (Plane can a couple fuel canisters underneath it pretty easily)

the rocket I'm working on for auto-orbiting looks very similar to that. Then again I imagine simple rockets would work best with the approach of using a gravity turn.

I would imagine the radial booster pack would be very helpful

Hey all, I've been unsuccessfully attempting to make an automatic orbiter the past few days. IE, a rocket that will take off and get itself into orbit without any human assistance (besides staging). The one I made either overshoots or undershoots orbit, depending on what throttle I have set. Anyone up for the challenge of creating an automatic orbiter?
