Here's how I lauch this to orbit: Turn on SAS (T), and max throddle (Z). Start launch (Space), and when you get to about 1-2km slow start to tilt. Keep within the yellow ring on the Nav Ball, but push it to the edge. Continue to slowly tilt more and more until you get to about 25 degrees. View map and adjust with maneuver nodes. Hope that helps some!!

I can't seem to get this thing into orbit. have you managed, if so can you give me a summary. I have been heading vertical to 10000 with minimal use of the skipper engines maintaining a velocity of betwween 100-120ms then at 10000 starting with a slow tilt, utilising skipper engines, staging the solid fuel rockets away when they are spent and igniting the nuclear engine, as is in your staging sequence. I cannot seem to get anywhere near a complete orbit. I initially tried an orbit of around 90km, but when I fell short aimed much closer to 70km with still no luck. Thanks

Well, not sure on that - its designed specificly for lifting the 30,000 Ore Storage Pod.

If you need a lifter, please check out my 515 ton Bucket Lifter: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1520261336&searchtext=

I mean thruster power. Is it more powerful than the "Saturn V" and/or the "N1 Rocket"?

Sorry, not sure what you mean by powerful? Give it a try, if you need some Ore storage in space. Have fun!

How Powerful is this?
