In this episode we gather enough science and build our first plane. Google ksp planes and the first link will give you nicely written tutorial also you are mistaken. Space science will give you much more than any of those kerbin contracts.

This may be a plane designed without engines which detaches from another lifting vehicle or an airplane possessing a stable glide path after exhausting its fuel similarly to the real life nasa space shuttles. A spaceplane is a hybrid of a plane and a rocket capable of atmospheric flight with wings and spaceflight with reaction engines most spaceplanes are single stage to orbit capable or have only some minor parts which aren t reusable. Do i use a rocket engine for now.

Go space moons and beyond. Gliders exchange altitude for velocity. The game features a realistic orbital physics engine allowing for various real life orbital maneuvers such as.

How else can i build a plane. Hopefully it will help you. Planes are actually slightly harder than rockets.

Let me know if you have any questions. Any plane needs speed so you need thrust usually. While having the same stock parts as in the vab spaceplane design is obviously quite different from pure rocket design.

Kerbal space program ksp is a space flight simulation video game developed and published by squad for microsoft windows macos linux playstation 4 and xbox one in the game players direct a nascent space program staffed and crewed by green humanoid aliens known as kerbals.
