Description

The Liget I is a liquid-fuel only SSTO. It reaches orbit with more margin than the Aether, because of its reduced mass, but when fuelled up in orbit it has less range. AG2 is set aside to switch RAPIER mode, even though there is no oxidant on board, to aid in landing.

It unsticks from the runway at 70m/s approx. and is quite easy to control. You may have to use a shallow dive to get past 400m/s, but after that it has enough TWR to fly at 20°. Engage the Nervs at 18km and continue at about that pitch until you have an Ap of 70+ km, then cut engines. You should circularise with about 800m/s in the tank, possibly more.

A stock aircraft called Liget I. Built with 67 of the finest parts, its root part is Mk2 Cockpit.

Built in the SPH in KSP version 1.8.1.
