Jetmaster Phoenix


Recommended Posts

This craft is more than capable of SSTO, however, since the runway we have is slightly too short to do this 100% safely, the version I\'m posting has RATO packs just for ease of use.

Requires Mechjeb

Best launch profile seems to be set your Smart A.S.S. to a heading of 90 and a pitch of 45, kick in the jets on full throttle. Once at 70m/s hit the spacebar for RATO assistance, then again when the RATO packs run out. Fly it to arround 10km, still at 45 degrees, then kick in the Aerospikes. Ride the thrust out to your desired altitude and circularise. Still has usable amounts of rocket fuel out to about 150 km circular orbit.
