Description

A good trainer plane for short science-gathering missions around KSC in the early game. Lots of lift, decent power, extremely controllable. Center of mass doesn’t move, flies well without SAS, and even without reaction wheel torque.

Part count 28 (still room to add a couple experiments or test parts), mass 4.9t, flight time of around 25 minutes, ceiling over 10km, room for a scientist to reset that sweet sweet science, and two cockpits so you can store an extra copy of science for that last little bit. There’s even a parachute in case you get in over your head - or for some really daring landings.

A mod aircraft called Low-Tech Science Plane. Built with 28 of the finest parts, its root part is Mark1Cockpit.

Built in the SPH in KSP version 1.4.5.
