My first reusable rocket! It goes into a circular orbit but it does not have a specific orbit height. This will be added in one of the next updates. It does not land accurately yet. It will in the future. That will be v+1.0.
The largest reliably reusable first stage on Simple Rockets!
Capable of getting to RSS orbit with an expendable first stage
Max Payload: 15,000 kilograms
Next up: updates of this until it can land reliably on the LZ1

@SCaxaR
1. I will try to raise the stage separation point. At least to get the second stage out of the atmosphere.
2. I know it is a very high start and I will try to lower it. It can’t be lowered to much otherwise it doesn’t have enough thrust to land. Even with all engines activated. 2-3 km is way too low.Thanks for the advice. I will keep working. Hopefully all of the kinks will be worked out soon. But probably after accurate landing occur.

there are a few things that should be improved.
- The stage separation occurs too early, I suggest adjusting it a little, so you can increase the load capacity by several tons.
- Also, landing burn starts early, in fact, a lot of fuel is also spent on it, here I propose to force the 1st stage to start the engines for landing at a distance of 2-3 kilometers. So you can save a lot of fuel.
And in general, everything goes perfectly.

@JSO18 and the capsules CSM will need a re design (probably just some tinkering).

@JSO18 yes. Hopefully very soon. But first I am going make it so that you can choose your orbit. That way it will be easier.

@Tweedle_Aerospace yeah... it took me so long to get from my bullet to my sparrow rockets because the craft switching is so hard to get right

@JSO18 this would have been released earlier but there was a weird glitch in the switch program that I had to fix last minute.

@Tweedle_Aerospace will future versions be able to carry the twdle CPSLEII?

@JSO18 15,000 forgot to put that. It will be improved soon. It might even be 30,000 in the future. Seeing that the upper stage doesn’t need RCS.

@GalaxyEye thanks you so much!
