I’m pretty sure it’s the same? I think I got atlas and intern from the space shuttle and I think I had the other ones from the other teams

I don’t think so...

For my last Team Hawk entry I did the Jovian and return mission

Ah, Callisto. I did a full exploration of Callisto a long time ago. I think is underrated, cause is a nice place to visit.

Pretty much all of Jupiter’s planets are underrated imo, they have some of the best textures I think. This challenge gave me a reason to visit them again =)

True. Is a shame people don’t visit them a lot. Callisto and Europa are the coolest in my opinion.

Anyway, congratulations on Team Hawk!

Thanks! Is team valiant/kolibri a thing only for mods?

Yup. Kolibri is for Mods and Valiant for Admins. You can still try the other Hawk missions, if you want.

Here’s the reusable rocket I’m working with. It can be recovered in theory, but I’m struggling with getting the second stage to orbit while also trying to control the first stage and make sure it lands. Any tips?

Make your second stage faster and/or burn longer with the first one.

I myself am still trying this challenge, but I have found that a really simple infrastructure on the ground consisting of, a crane to stack, a way to open and close fairings and put payload in using the same vehicle, and something to refuel. This challenge is a lot of stuff to take in. All the stuff on the ground and trying to land and fly a second stage at once is very difficult. Not to mention recovering that second stage. But making this challenge as simple as possible makes life so much easier, as you have to worry about less vehicles and less things going wrong. And the time your saving by having to test less vehicles and giving you more time to focus on your flight.

I sorta gave up on the 600 ton mission so I did the shuttle mission instead =)

Why are you driving the ground vehicles whilst the second stage is still in ascent. You only need to be controlling the first and second stage, and once the first is on the ground, concentrate on the second until it's in orbit then fuck about with the ground process.
Hell, I'd not even bother until you've landed the second stage.
