Twinstar II - Gemini ripoff... I mean -inspired


Recommended Posts

I made a rocket.

The Twinstar II has a functioning launch tower - press 1 to toggle the ladders. Just a warning: don't time warp prelaunch. The tower may wobble.

Throttle to 100%, SAS, then launch. The boosters run out of fuel quickly; drop them with space. Standard profile; 45-degree pitchover at 10000 meters, get your apoapsis to around 78 kilometers. You'll have some fuel left; use it to burn for orbit around 20 seconds before apoapsis. Once it's out, stage twice, activating the engine ring. Keep the throttle to full unless the Mainsail overheats; if it does, throttle down one notch. Don't worry about power; there's a ring of RTGs inside the paneling. You now have enough fuel to deorbit.
