Hi

[8bitg33k]

Hey all, I'm new to KSP and these forums. Just wanted to introduce myself to the awesome community you guys have going on here.

So far I have been able to lift off but not get into orbit unless I use mechjab mod.

Any suggestions for things to read to get me going without this mod are greatly appreciated!

Welcome to the forums

There are lots of places to go to find some great info!

My suggestions is Youtube, look up Scott Manley and Trydyingtolive, they are great with their tutorials and very entertaining too.

Places to read I would highly suggest the How To forum as that's a great starting point for finding tutorials and asking to help
