    You can do a true Falcon 9 without mods. When you stage, you need to make sure your second stage has the TWR to push the AP out fast. Then do a boostback burn with the first stage, but it's AP needs to get over 70km. Once you reach the 70km, you can switch back to the Stage 2 and circularise. It's difficult at first but once you try (alot) it gets quite easy.

      Yeah I do the same thing... the only difference is I push the Ap to 150km. Gives you a shed load of time to land the booster. Should probably note that my booster design actually allows it to go past the 70km mark during ascent anyway... makes things much easier :)

    if you activate the parachutes in orbit they will deploy when it's safe (note: this only works if you have the parachutes set to deploy when safe) i do this to build science return pods that don't need a pilot or drone module added. this would allow you to control a return booster stage without worrying about the command pod falling to the ground

    Matt, I like that you don't obsess over returning the rockets right to the pad, and I also agree that returning them to KSC itself, in reality would be much too dangerous.
    But I don't think you're giving Elon enough credit, seeing as earth's orbital velocity is 4x that of Kerbin's and the aerodynamic forces and heat are proportionally worse for real missions :)

    hey matt, i absolutely love this! it inspired me to try something similar, and you had mentioned that mods would be needed for a "true' recreation of the Falcon 9, i found this to be not quite true, as i was able to set up my trajectory so that at the apoapsis the payload would deploy and accelerate to orbital speed, at wich point the booster was still falling towards the atmosphere, i could switch to it and land it. still, i love this design! :D keep up the awesome work friend

    One guy I know took a steeper than normal profile, at around 35km, he sepperated, and sent the second stage on it's way as full throttle. This put it on a high enough trajectory that once it left the physics range, that he could boost back, land, switch and circularize.

    You kind of can do it in KSP, with mechjeb you can send payload on the 80km orbit and then switch to the first booster stage that still going to be falling from a 60 km suborbital tragectory at 1400m/s.
    Another great tip the solid booster separators are great at deorbiting stages.

    One thing I found out to stop those spazzing out things from exploding on approach was to have a not too fast moving close approach, swap to the object in danger, and wait until the smaller craft makes it way to full physics range, or since I don't know the exact number for that, I had them go to about 500m or closer, before switching over for matching orbits and docking.
    I had an unruly space casino from the career missions that I could only get to by following those hoops. Asteroid stations in general seem to be in danger for whatever reason.

    All my reusable boosters are orbital. I usually use them to launch things to other planets so the boost phase put's it into a parking orbit and the payload has enough fuel to get it where it needs to go.

    There is a other more true to the point way of doing it. Taking the boaster up to a steel suborbital arch. The appoas must be over 68km, but it can be quite steep. The separat the stages just before, then burn the upper stage in to orbit.If it just burns sufficiently fast, its possible to get a stabile orbit well before the boast stage is inside the 45km where its cancelled.
    Then when the orbit is circular. Just switch to the boaster stage, and land it.
    I done this with jet boasters.(one with a single jet, one with 3 and one with 8). The largest could take a orange tanke to suborbit.
    The really nice thing about having jets in steed of rocket is that they just sip fuel. So one can have plenty of fuel to land and the space craft is really freaking smal.
    WIth jets one can also jump back to KSP landing on the pad and get full recovery

  • @jillkang6526
    @jillkang6526 6 років тому

    Another viable way of reusing the first stage is to actually attach many parachutes to it and stage them with the second stage ignition. I use lithobrake modded parachutes but the stock will work just fine if you strap enough on. My first stage is 5m in diameter, having a probe core(so I don't need to turn on display debris) and airbrakes. It is also complete with air protection shells covering the second stage which is using a rhino engine. It has ~2400-2800 dv so it is more than capable of pushing the upper stages to a high altitude and gain fast horizontal speed. The rhino on the second stage also have no problem at getting the AP further up which gives you enough time to switch back to the first stage and land it in water to the east of the space center. Only problem being that you cannot guide it back to KSC for max value. I get ~75% value of the first stage back, which is about ~60% the cost of my whole rocket, and I am satisfied. Guess I could boost the recovery value if I choose the transponder strategy.

    EJ_SA flies completely stock Falcon 9's. His ascent profile is very steep, he separates and fires 2nd stage once, performs 1st stage boostback, circularises 2nd stage and then lands the 1st stage. Usually explosions happen.

  • @ALT0_768
    @ALT0_768 2 роки тому

    matt, the probable reason that the station kept spasming is probably because of your drill placement.if the drills are too close to each other, it can cause the station to get(in lack of a better word) squeezed out of formation, and because the docking ports want to stay together, the drills and the ports fight against one another, and it starts shaking. there is proof that this is probably the reason, as the sections with the drills stayed on the boulder, while the ports broke away. yay I just made a godknowshowlong essay on the Kraken.
    P.S. if my theory is true, all you have to do is remove one drill, and hope nothing comes loose.

    Simply make sure you have a high enough apoapsis that you can circularise before the booster hits the atmosphere, or be an SSTO, then re-enter and land.

  • @ryanfav

    Tip to use way less monoprop in future, set a single ring of 4 right around the center of mass, the tank will shift it a little full vs empty, so you just pick the average. at the ends you get much less effectiveness on rotation.
    Equally set your view to chase when docking, that way you can see what way you have to translate, you want to keep the target marker inline with you prograge marker as you head towards it.
    If your not inline with the docking port, overshooting the prograde marker past the target marker will cause the ship to drift that way, bringing the target marker to be inline with the orientation of the ship, then when your inline, bring target and prograde inline and just do final touch ups,
    My normal dockings use less than 3 units of monoprop for an equivilent sized vessel.

If you want, you can dock to them or ,,keepjack" one of the Kerbalonauts.

    This can be done on stock by adding a probodobodyne on the first starge and using the bracket keys to switch back to stage 2. Just set a alram for stage 1 when it hits Ap so you can do your burn for orbit. (You should have about 2 minutes to land, add parachuets just incase things get out of control so you can go back to orbit burn.

    I made a fully reusable falcon 9 rocket, modified it to perform better and make the second better reusable, with both first and second stages being reusable. I have landed the first rather well, and the second with some difficulty, but I did manage to land it without destroying anything. (after numerous quickloads)
