SpaceShipTwo+WhiteKnight [0.25]

[SpaceXray]

After receiving a ton of hype on Facebook, this beauty is now being released here too!

Behold, the SS2 and WhiteKnightTwo!

The controls are pretty self-explanatory.

To get the full experience:

Follow the staging, detach the SS2 at any altitude you want, engage the engine 5 sec after detaching and pull up.

Try doing small rolls and yaws to wiggle your way up more easily. Don't worry if you don't pitch up instantly, wouldn't be too realistic anyway.

Go approx. 90deg up until fuel runs out or your choice.

Disable capsule torque, engage RCS, turn on chasecam and play around with the thrusters

After reentry, try to pitch up as hard as you can to get out of the nose-dive. Use capsule torque, RCS, everything and go into a steady glide for landing.

nice, have you considered putting turbojets and ram intakes on the White Knight and going for orbit?

That's for SS3 I suppose

Kind of a blend of Scaled Composite designs. The spacecraft is more SpaceShipOne-esque, with a scaled-down WhiteKnightTwo carrier.

For some reason, when I try to ignite SS2's main rocket, it says that there is no Oxidizer

There is a weird bug where if you open it in the SPH at least once the fuel lines inside leading to the engine get cut off.

So yeah, just launch it straight from the runway. SPH is a no-go zone.
