Get in Munar orbit with minimalised rocket. [MechJeb]


Recommended Posts

The challenge is simple, quite easy if you get the tricky part right. (lol, otherwise I wouldn\'t be able to do it)

Enter Mun orbit with the supplied ship. (orbit must not be hyperbolic, may be elliptical, must not escape Mun SOI, no orbits under 2 kilometers)

*Note that I used MechJeb for orbital information, you are free to use it\'s other tools, but they won\'t be of much help (Except maybe KILL ROT)

It is a simple ship, but just a tiny bit tricky to pilot. Smart A.S.S may make it easier to fly, but I haven\'t tried yet.

The leaderboard will be held by MET at the time of screenshot with orbital information, so be quick with that camera (unlike me)

The ship is attached at bottom of post. Fly safe(not like they\'re going to return alive, :o), and have fun.

Too rich for my blood. I get into kerb\'s orbit but always run out of fuel 3/4 of the way to completing TLI.

When I try to do a continuous burn from ground without ever completing a full orbit around the planet I can never get the timing right.

Yep, it\'s all about timing-TLI isn\'t the way to go.
