    The wings add more drag than they prlvide in lift because the TWR so high. Better just remove the wings.

    • @Sponkulusnodge
      @Sponkulusnodge 2 роки тому

      Just because engines are fired at different times doesn't mean it's not an SSTO. The craft remains in one piece for the entire duration of the mission. It's an SSTO.

  • @qwartzcrystal

    Two stages! Not SSTO, but TSTO (two stages to orbit)

    An SSTO is a Single Stage To Orbit aircraft, sorry to be THAT guy but that took 2 stages, still a nice video though :) :/

    • @BradleyWhistance
      @BradleyWhistance  7 років тому +6

      Did you watch the video? It is clearly one stage. It takes off, reaches orbit, and lands without detaching any parts, docking with any other craft, or refueling in any way.
      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-stage-to-orbit

    • @falentertainment7063
      @falentertainment7063 7 років тому

      I agree with Bradley Whistance. Just because he fired the engines at different times doesn't mean that it's not an SSTO.
      If he were in orbit when he fired the engines it would have had the same delta-V if he fired the engines one at a time or all at once.
      This is no different than if he had had a liquid fuel engine and had just turned it off for a while and then turned it back on.

      "A single-stage-to-orbit (or SSTO) vehicle reaches orbit from the surface of a body without jettisoning hardware, expending only propellants and fluids." Id appreciate an acknowledgement on this one =)

    this is not an ssto. more like a double stage to orbit

    • @BradleyWhistance
      @BradleyWhistance  6 років тому

      No, its single stage.
      "A single-stage-to-orbit (or SSTO) vehicle reaches orbit from the surface of a body without jettisoning hardware, expending only propellants and fluids. The term usually, but not exclusively, refers to reusable vehicles." Nothing was ejected from the craft in this mission other than fuel.

    • @misterstanley6161
      @misterstanley6161 6 років тому +1

      oh ok. i was under the impression that you had to use the same booster/engine to reach orbit. sorry for the confuzion

    • @BradleyWhistance
      @BradleyWhistance  6 років тому +1

      No worries. The KSP community generally misuses the term in other ways as well. I frequently see strict single stage missions billed as "SSTO". Even I sometimes do this because SSTO is a commonly searched phrase. Technically, any craft that reaches orbit without any staging would qualify as an SSTO, even if it detached or undocked components afterwards. We oughta start a campaign =0
