Landing from Low vs High Orbit
Reynaard replied to daniu's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
You're forgetting the Oberth effect. IMO it's best to land from an elliptical orbit, because then you're going the fastes when you do your deorbit burn at periapsis, which means it's doing the most work (work equals force times speed).
