Minimalist Minmus RCS-Only orbit


Recommended Posts

I decided to create a Minmus lander that landed and returned apollo style. Well, by apollo style I mean leaving the lander behind. I returned to Kerbin with only RCS.

And I got into Minmus orbit using only half a tank of RCS. So this is the challenge: get into Minmus orbit with the least amount RCS fuel.

Rules:

1. You must use only stock parts. Mechjeb is not allowed.

2. You must get into Minmus orbit from a landing on minmus using nothing but RCS. Rocket packs not allowed.

3. No CFG edits.

4. It doesn't need to return to kerbin.

5. Post a pic that shows how much RCS fuel you have left, and another of the orbit in map view.

Do you mean, get in Minmus orbit from the surface of Minmus, or from Kerbin? If it is the former, it is doable with a Kerbal's EVAPack (you can even try to get back to Kerbin, but I don't remember if I managed that or not...).
