Now with more DV!

Continuing my mission to recreate all the key rockets from the space race, here is perhaps the most important one of them all! Vostok!

Just enough DV to get into orbit with a tiny bit of fuel left for the retro rocket.

Hit hotkey 2 to extend the aerials once in orbit!

Build a Juno rocket (Launched the Explorer sattelite)

It's on the list ;)

Very good looking craft that is profound designing skill! May I ask how long it took to build?

About three days I think... the launch vehicle is based on the one I made for Sputnik.

Thanks all... i'm quite pleased with the way it came out. It fills an important gap in my growing collection of historical ships. Pretty much covered all the pioneering manned craft now in my thread (see link), might move on to satellites and probes next!

Looks like the real thing, but can you include a guide on how to fly this? I can't get into orbit.

It's very tight on fuel... but I've got it in orbit twice now :)

Start your gravity turn at 8km, leaning over to about 70 degrees. gradually creep down just above the prograde marker, don't drop below 45 degrees until AP is at least 35km, try to keep AP at least 45 seconds ahead of you. I'll see if I can put a video together!

Now that it's in interstellar space... Make The Voyager Probes!!!

ZodiaK. Celebrate good times, COME ON!

I'll make them eventually when I get to the right point in my space race thread!
