How do you interplanetary travels?


Recommended Posts

Seen that kicker stage two pages back? Some of its predecessors were torn apart by KR-2L power. The one in the picture could stand it... barely. Limited them to 80% anyway, as it makes no sense if 2/3rds of your thrust goes off in a 30 degree angle.

Still flew just fine afterwards, though:

i tried the KR-2L... a lot of fun...

the poodle is nothing for interplanetary. 4 LV-N are better than 1 poodle... or i have to go bigger (radial)...

the KR-2L has only one problem: the weight...

it's difficult to maneuver and to put it into LKO... but it's fun using it :D

after hours of testing i had a craft with 7000m/s, a 3400m/s lander, 8 LV-N and a TWR of 0.4.

dres should be possible with that. (you have to be carefull with the lander so you can reuse the fuel after redocking (for return)
