Hi,

To do it, i directed the rocket to the west, to gain some distance thanks to the planet rotation, because the counter counts the distance relative to the planet surface.

I first burnt a little bit, at around 45°, when i reach an altitude of around 1000m, i stoped the engine and waited to reach the apoapsis, then burnt at around 15° until the tank was empty.

I'll give that a shot. Much appreciated! :steamhappy:

I set it for 45 deg (toward the west), full throttle launch, then throttled back to avoid really high q-bar. I think I might have then set it to track prograde. I just barely got 15 km, though.

Here's a way to do it:
