Wanted to add some stock aircraft to the community so new players could see what can be done without mods

first up is the Mini. built in the VAB but is a wingless ssto using a single turbo jet, 2 shock intakes, and 2 rockmax 48-7s ( 30Kn rocket) with mech jeb and basic science devices added.

and is easy to get into orbit.

Flight plan is easy, full power on the turbo jet, straight up until 8000m then over at 45 degree, keep 45 degree until 20k meters, then reduce the vertical velocity between 50 to 75 m/s until you get you orbital speed up above 2200 m/s then turn mech jeb on and go for orbit. typical fuel usage is rougly 40 to 50 units and about 90 m/s Dv to finish orbit.

all Stock .
