Settling into a low orbit also took several in-game days and about half an hour or so in real time. The system was sized to be able to run purely off solar power but unfortunately, a Duna trajectory requires burning on the nightside of Kerbin.Īfter arrival at Duna, I was able to burn in daylight but only with 3 of the 4 engines lit. It probably took 2 hours of real-time to make it through, even with the 4x warp on. The cycle would go: burn, discharge capacitors, stop burn, recharge at apoapsis, burn again. The transtage was dramatically underpowered (even for an ion drive) and it took several months of game time to reach an escape trajectory. The transtage is powered by quad-ion drives and a buttload of solar cells, batteries and capacitors. It's a lot easier than lining up orbital alignments though so I always use it except for the few times I accidentally launch into an aligned orbit.

Though my approach (to get to Minmus orbit then burn full retrograde so that I fly backwards until I run into Minmus) is very inefficient. The most efficient transfers to get to Minmus only require marginally more fuel than getting to the Mun. I find that a TWR of 1.3 is sufficient for most landings though it does depend on how much fuel you have. if you fly over a mountain, all of a sudden you should have started your burn a few kilometers higher than if you are landing on a lowlands. Always start your burn a bit early though because as the terrain changes under you, you may get a nasty surprise. That's your most efficient landing profile for a planet/moon without atmosphere.

It has a neat feature called the 'suicide burn' which tells you when you need to begin throttling at 100% to reach 0 altitude at 0 velocity.
