Urgh...Only stock parts eh? LoL! And for the hard mode, you have to go refill your SSTO from a base on Jool.

Wow! The explosions that the KAS parts are causing with the x64 build are truly remarkable! There must be a way to contain all that energy and use it to power our rockets! C'mon Jeb, we have some more work for you!

OMG! When I clicked that download link, I was afraid I was going to get rick'rolled. Aaaaaand no???? IT's actually for real???? Wooooooooooaaaaaah! THanks! You are my heerooooo!

Awesome mod! thumbs up! I'm trying to play all IVA missions, and this is the perfect touch of dramatization when you casually exit Kerbin's atmosphere at 1200m/s. Combined with RasterPropMonitors it really gives a 100% immersion experience into the eyes of the proud (or clueless?) kerbonaut. At max thrust I do find quite hard to read and click on my IVA monitors though I guess it only adds to the dramatization effect.

Awesome thread! Thanks for sharing your invaluable experience and knowledge! I shiver at the thought of all the Jebediahs, Bobs and Bills who died in the honing of your piloting and engineering skills. But in the end it was all worth it! I haven't designed the "perfect" SSTO and was stuck for quite a while in SPH (Space Plane Hell) trying to get a stable flying object. But redemption came to me suddenly in the form of some keyboard shortcuts! I realized you can use alt key (mod key) + QWEASD to finely trim your pitch/yaw/roll. I guess it kind of turns your keyboard into a joystick. With this technique you don't need a "perfect" spacecraft to reach orbit. At take-off, this allows you to gently bring up your nose and avoid the frenetic headbanging syndrome. And during ascent you can easily keep the desired heading without straining your fingers and your brains too much. No mod required! All stock parts lol! Thx to Scrogdog, I learned about trimming in his thread here >> http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/showthread.php/32621-Learn-to-fly-in-KSP-with-the-stock-Aeris-3A!
