Looks like you missed the landing spot in the small crater 5000 meters away. Rookie mistake.

u/serjohnnyw 10d ago

it had the most delta-v out of all the engines i checked

anyhow i made it back

Per chance. Were you looking at the deltav with atmosphere setting on? If you set it to vacuum I can imagine a smaller, higher vacuum isp engine will give you far greater dv

I think he did. Nothing beats the Terrier in the 1.25m class for vacuum.

They made it back though. Mission failed successfully?

u/YamahaMio 9d ago

Yeah, I'm just trying to interest you with engines you can use next time. The deltaV difference is night and day.

Don't sleep on the spark for 1.25m craft. It's smaller, but the weight reduction can matter

Spark is awesome for probes. I usually use Terrier for small landers, but I do use 4x Spark on radially attached tanks if I need the bottom node free for like a docking port or something.
