Just made a heavy lift to 244 x 238 x 28 Degr orbit using Velcro Saturn V
The goal was to lift a fully fueled S-IVB stretched 198 to LEO with 45,000 kg additional payload. Mission Accomplished. This comes to 224,000 kg total in LEO with one lift!





If someone wants to critique my ascent profile, and help me with efficiency, please do so. Thanks to Sputnik for just a great tool in Velcro Rockets. Really enjoying exploring all of the available parameters.
 
great exit profile. you gotta note that you lose Acceleration when you separate to a space-only stage. I can see where that happens on the profile.
 
You do want to share it, didn't you?

Artlav, share what? The SCN file?
Please excuse, I'm still pretty new here.

Thanks, Cinder. Is there a way to avoid the loss in Accel at separation, going to a lower thrust stage?
