hottipsmedia.com/2016/09/23/Charlie-fun-fridays-02-kerbal-space-program-ssto-duna-challenge-part-2-live/ Welcome to the SECOND Charlie Fun Fridays Live Stream here on YouTube! I’ve got a show today packed full of content to experience with you all, including engineering an SSTO that can reach and land on Duna…. while also carrying 15 Kerbals and a rover for surface science! It’s a tall order, something I’ve […]

Fix your inclination first for a Duna encounter then try to burn pro-grade.
Couple of tricks I've learnt for getting intercepts. Set target first: gives you markers for getting close to intercept and a/d nodes. The closer your AP is to one of the a/d nodes the less you gotta worry about aligning your orbit.
i have a suggestion on the missing dV
install KOS mod
and run this script
https://my.pcloud.com/publink/show?code=XZsKW1ZKh17saLHqRRicQmYYGkikpQFcMFX
it will calc the dv and print starting dV ,currrent dV,and used dV calced by 2 metods
and fuel used
and compere the numbers to the numbers KerbalEngineer gives
CLEARSCREEN.
List Engines in englist.
set M0 to ship:mass.
set lastt to time:seconds-0.01.
set fuleused to 0.
set totalISP to 0.
set numofeng to 0.
for en in englist { if en:IGNITION { set totalISP to totalISP+en:ISP. set numofeng to numofeng+1.}}
set shipISP to totalISP/numofeng.
set g0 to 9.80665.
lock currrentdV to g0*shipISP*ln(ship:mass/SHIP:DRYMASS).//(ship:mass-(ship:LIQUIDFUEL*ship:LIQUIDFUEL:DENSITY+ship:OXIDIZER*ship:OXIDIZER:DENSITY))).
lock DeltaV_used to g0*shipISP*ln(M0/ship:mass).
set dV0 to currrentdV.
until 0 {set t to time:seconds.
for en in englist {
if en:IGNITION { set fuleused to fuleused+en:FUELFLOW*(t-lastt). }}
set lastt to t.
print "starting dV: "+dV0 at(0,1).
print "currrent dV: "+currrentdV at(0,2).
print "used dV: "+DeltaV_used at(0,3).
print "used dV: "+(dV0-currrentdV) at(0,4).
print "fule used: "+fuleused at(0,5).
wait 0.01.

i played (now its less often) KSP until 3AM nearly every day wen i started playing it
my waify was very mad at me for not getting inaf sleep 🙂
any chance you can list the names of the 2 competition craft guys – want to see the full flight to orbit using KOS
Why didn't you give links to the contestant channels/videos? FFS dude you start the KOS script and end your vid. Grrrr
