I'm trying to complete the Voyager quest.

Of course, I encountered such difficulties that I did not even expect such an impossibility of this task. I have two drawings, I want to consult which one is better and what could be improved.

Without any doubt whatsoever, USE THE SECOND ONE. The first one will kill you with drag for a dozen reasons. I'm not even gonna go into that, I'll be starting to write a book.

Make your boosters and first stage longer on the second rocket to increase delta v. 10t extra per booster and 10t for the core. Also add 10t to the 2nd stage and change the engine on the second stage to a Valiant. You'll be shocked what you can do with that rocket.

Like this?
If something is wrong, then I'll throw off the drawing below, our communication is complicated by the language barrier, so it's better you show me than tell me

In fact, I recalculated. Take the 10t out of the core. Then you have a big amount of extra delta V. Over 400m/s extra, in fact.

Hi Lev,

First, don't worry if you struggle with that challenge, it's the hardest one in team Frontier. If you didn't do it, I suggest that you have a loik at the tutorial: Voyager quest: tutorial
You'll find a lot of tips in it.

Your rocket is a good basis, I would just make the second stage a little shorter, 50 tons of fuel are a lot for that small engine. To compensate you can give more fuel to the first stage.

Привет, Лев!

Во-первых, не волнуйтесь, если вы справитесь с этой задачей, она самая сложная в команде Frontier. Если вы этого не сделали, я предлагаю вам просмотреть учебник: Квест "Вояджер": учебник
В ней вы найдете много советов.

Ваша ракета хорошая база, я бы только вторую ступень чуть покороче сделал, 50 тонн топлива много для такого маленького двигателя. Для компенсации можно дать больше топлива на первую ступень.
Я его уже закончил, жду судей

I had actually told him to add 10t and upgrade 2 Kolibris to a Valiant. That gives an extra 383m/s in just the last stage

Ah, sorry, I read the discussion too quickly. Yeah, 50 tons of fuel is defendable in terms of delta-V.

Of course thanks for the advice my friend, but I will add another 10 tons of fuel to the last stage. I'm missing a no-fuel probe
