Edspace Agency that's a nifty little rocket... you'll soon learn why it shouldn't fly under proper conditions though. But, even I had to learn this once: drag is not active unless you activate it yourself. And I am not talking about sandbox mode.

Ed, when you send your rocket to the launchpad, there is no drag, no matter what you do. So, exit game. Then, resume game. Now you have drag. Now send your rocket... and see it flip over because suddenly there is air resistance. Try it, then come back to me and I'll show you the way to build a rocket. Ok?

Ok so I tested it. It's quite slippery, so the 2.01 TWR threatens, but did not manage to throw you significantly off a straight up trajectory (about 15-20º by booster separation). It also makes orbit. If I took an early turn though, it wouldn't be pretty (read "BOOM")...

So try it, and then let's talk ok?

Gotta love it when a rocket flies farther with less thrust. :cool:
