Since i play career mode, the first (little) thing i brought to orbit was a small probe which is now constantly spnning in a 150km orbit above kerbin No SAS onboard, no engine, no hope.

Yes OP - did exactly the same. 6h+ so far and not even close to the Mun. Fighting through those first tiers of the tech tree is so much fun - not to speak of the missing "in flight" features as long as you didnt upgrade your facilities! But thats what career is all about right? I am also vlogging everything .. just for the fun. Right now i have 2 similar contracts, 2 tourists want to experience suborbital flight - the Problem: Capsule only holds 1 kerbal at a time .. so i have to build a 3 capsule craft with under 24t and under 30 parts. Now thats what i love about these challenges!

I am so glad i rarely used mods/sas while flying crafts in the past! Yesterday with the first launch of the my newest rocket in career mode i had to switch to precice mode not to flip over the rocket at start. KSP is now much more unforegiving and feels alot more realistic with the new drag system. Playing since 0.16 this is the best experience so far I want to work my way up all through the tech tree - and its a nice feeling if you have to learn everything again from scratch. Keeping track of speed, heading, altitiude, HEAT etc. makes the game much more interesting and intense. Really like it!
