Pre-Release Aerodynamics
While planes can be built using similar principles to rockets (see F-4 Phantom), the biggest advantage they offer is their ability to use lifting surfaces effectively. The way stock aerodynamics work in KSP produces a conundrum that causes the classical laws of real aerodynamics to be thrown out the window. This is present in rockets, but is much more prominent in planes. The problem is that KSP applies drag as a function of the drag coefficient (0.2 for most parts) and wet mass (including fu...
Get to know the flight HUD
At this stage, you should be sat on the launch pad, desperate to send some poor Kerbal on a wild mission. Before you go and crash in blaze of fiery glory, I suggest you take a moment to see what is going on. The main feature you will see in the middle bottom of your screen is the Navball, this will be the main way you know what is going on with your ship. Down the left hand side of the screen you have the staging for your ship, which if done in a sensible way you can more or less ignore, but...
Basic Orbit Control
First, let's define an Orbit; simply put, it's falling around another body in space, ideally never colliding with it. The idea of 'always falling' is odd I will grant you, but either accept it, or better yet, go read up on it. As you leave the launch pad, and start to turn to side, your orbit will start to form. The point at which you would crash back to Kerbin(or what ever body you are taking off from) if you cut the engines will slowly start to move further and further around, until eventua...
