KeGGeR Sailfin - Personal Shuttle

KeGGeR Sailfin

Named after the fish that can take to the skies!

This is the perfect craft to take you from orbit to the surface of a planet and back without the use of hydrogen fuel! Why is this important you ask? Uranium fuel lasts far longer to power both ion and atmospheric thusters than a tank of hydrogen powering your hydrogen thrusters. The large reactor on your Sailfin takes far less space than a large hydrogen tank! You can relax as you climb out of the atmosphere with ease, not needing to worry about a rapidly depleting hydrogen tank!

Larger Variants are in development to carry more passengers, cargo, or even transport hydrogen!

Controls on the Hotbar:
1: Reduces throttle of your Atmospheric Thrusters
2: Increases throttle of your Atmospheric Thrusters
3: Toggles the power to your Atmospheric Thrusters
4: Toggles the safetly lock for your Engine Gimbals
5: Rotates the engines 90 degrees to either face vertically or horizontally!


In Atmosphere Flight
While flying around in atmosphere, keep atmospheric thrusters pointed downward. You will glide effortlessly to your destination!

Leaving Atmosphere
Take your atmospheric engines to full throttle, then rotate them to the horizontal position, be sure to re lock them after rotation and nose straight up. It's advisabel to continue pressing forward on your ion thrusters as well so you do not lose speed during your climb!

Atmospheric Re-Entry
Throttle your engines to 0 by pressing [1] until they say disabled on your control bar. Rotate your atmospheric engines into the vertical position and leave them powered off. There is no need to turn them on again until you are aproaching 1,000 meters off the ground. It is important that you are not pointed to the ground, but rather have your nose level with the horizon when you ignite your atmospheric thrusters.
