How to reach space (580km)
By LeKanaa_
Did you ever want to go into space in Flyout? Leaving the old earth and breaking the game on the side?
Well in guide i will explain you how to get your planes into space and i will give you an example.

What aircraft to use
You should take a smaller and lighter aircraft. It needs a large engine (e.g. F-104).

Airplane:
-Skin thickness: 1-4mm
-Remove all unnecessary weight
-Tune for high stability

Engine:
-Tune the engine (tm: 9500 C°)
-More mach (1,2)
-High compression

You can convert your own jets like this or use my F-104: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1lQ0XB98evgEi3YPRBGp6dR92-4nVRjJ6?usp=sharing

How to fly
Take your aeroplane, press f5 and full throttle. Fly upwards at approx. 40°. When your engine loses power, fly at 90°. From 120km is space, at this point you should have 600-700m/s climb. From this altitude you will hardly lose any power. From then on you have to wait (approx. 30min to 580km)

Tips
Some extra stuff

-If you are not flying with 90° attitute the game could crash

-Take off from the air, so you don't need landing gear

-You also need other fuel, as in the file: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1lQ0XB98evgEi3YPRBGp6dR92-4nVRjJ6?usp=sharing

-The game might crash

-Orbit view is not working in space
Closing


Thank you for your attention, I will update the guide if something changes. if you have any questions, write me a comment. Also share your successes if you fly higher.

Unfortunately, none of the engines work in space and orbit is probably not coded into the game (my laptop crashed every time before reaching a higher altitude).

Hey, is there a propulsion method working in space powerful enough to reach orbit?

It has a very high energy and a low air-fuel ratio (this means that we can burn more fuel than normal). It also has a high auto_ignition (this means that it does not pre ingnite at high pressure)

how does the fuel you posted work? is it just light weight and very efficient?

I modyfied one of the fuels, it is in the zip file

id=6
name=E-123
density=0.8
specific_energy=257800000
heat_capacity=3010
stoichiometric_ratio=3.5
auto_ignition=483.15
freezing_point=-60

(You need to safe this in your streaming assets)

What is this " Other Fuel"?
