Autopilot to LKO

[selfish_meme]

How would you use stock autopilot only to send a craft to LKO, no WASD keys? I can't play ATM so I thought I would throw it out there, whats the best way.

i.e Stabity to 100m/s, then normal, to 25km, then prograde till apoapsis, or some other more efficient combination.

you're going to have to use one of the directions for your initial pitch over. From there you can use hold Prograde to execute your turn.

Nonsense. Just use launch clamps and rotate the ship. Staging/throttle is a bigger problem.

If you set up an SSTO rocket this way you could, in theory, tune it so that the only input required is the initial press of the space bar.

If I remember correctly there was a challenge a few time ago named something like "look ma', no hands" or "one button Bob something" related to this kind of question.

Maybe you could dig in the forum to look for it.

Actually, you can execute the "kick" by switching, with SAS set to prograde, from surface to orbit.
