Best ascent path for mechjeb


Coupon

Recommended Posts

I have MJ 2.4.2.0; currently the default ascent path settings are:

turn start 5 km

turn end 70 km

final path angle 0°

turn shape 40%

but you can simply turn on 'Automatic Altitude Turn', which seems to make an attempt at optimizing for you.

AFAIK, the stock game atmosphere hasn't changed, yet. So I'm sticking with my preferred turn start at 8km, with slow vessels turning aggressively to go lower and fast vessels turning more slowly to go high.

I testet the some ways to launch a single stage in a Kerbin Orbit.

My best results for a 75Km Orbit:

-TWR 1.62

-start ascent path on 7,3 Km

-ascent paht angle 38,7%

(this rocket use less than 900L Fuel, and can push 1t)
