I unfortunately forgot to hype up the addition of grid fins in my latest KSP 2 patch video, so here I am again, here to make amends! Enjoy this little Falcon 9 inspired build!

You can make a stock falcon 9 by just ditching the lower stage right before your circularization burn, and then switching to the booster once the upper stage completes its circularization burn

@MattLowne 9 ай бұрын

Yep, I've done this before, but to have a proportionally-accurate Falcon 9 (i.e. the same scale as the rocket in this video) the first stage doesn't have enough ΔV for this. Perhaps I'll do a follow-up using the bigger grid fins

@kerbalengineeringsystems7415 9 ай бұрын

Honestly, what I do in game is just make core stages that can reach orbit and then land those back at the KSC after one orbit

Also, you keep getting better at videos!

2 things they need to fix for sure, the wobbly sausage/worm rockets, making them more rigid and quick load and quick save and switching to "integrity" cause it totally looks like the "data" that makes the rocket gets corrupted when saving/loading/switching!

I ocasionally try to make an ssto falcon so that you can actually do your mission and get the whole payload back. That way if you are playing in career mode or whatever the ksp 2 equiveilent will look like you can actually get your resources back. Of course that particular sort of mission is really hard to make work.

how I do falcon 9 style rockets, is that i use 3.75m parts (not exactly realistic, as ksp is a smaller scale than irl, and real life falcon 9 is 3.7 meters in diameter. So, i do a real life sized falcon 9, in scale though it would be bigger than a falcon 9. this way, 9 vector engines just barely fit under the bottom. Also, its totally possible to recover the booster and use the second stage, in order to do this, the booster stage will need around 1700-2000 m/s, and second stage needs around 2100 m/s. its less efficient this way, but if you make second stage fully reusable, for example for career mode, it would be really useful and save funds. the flight profile for this style of rocket is that at first you need to take a steeper ascent profile, and when apoapsis gets around 70-75 km (needs to be above atmosphere though) you then separate, fire second stage and get to orbit, dont warp to apoapsis, and burn engines to orbit while ascending, this means you will need to pitch below the horizon a bit to counteract the fact you are already going up. when you get to orbit, quickly switch to first stage, and deploy airbrakes (or in this case grid fins) and then control it on the way down and then land it. Then, you can switch to second stage again to do mission. If you are sending first stage back to the launchpad, then you will need to do boostback burn before second stage iginition, but after stage separation. This method is less efficient than doing it normally, but it enables you to recover first stage, which for ksp1 career mode ends up saving tons of funds.

Does KSP2 have the programmable block? You might be able to program the stage 2+3 so that it acquires orbit while you focus on landing stage 1, then switch over to the crew capsule and continue mission. Takes a bit of trial and error, but I managed this on KSP1
