Description

Welcome Everyone to the Langley Mk3! An update was long overdue for the Langley so I thought I should go all out and make it go above and beyond its older version; while still keeping the ability to walk anywhere to fix what is broken.

Getting Into Space Tips:

Before taking off you will need to make some modifications, on the top deck there are two indented armor blocks on each side of the runway, under the interior walls next to them is a conveyor block and you can place some hydrogen thrusters there (and ions anywhere else if you want for downwards thrust). I recommend switching a lot of the atmospheric thrusters out with ions if you plan on staying in space for a while, if you need to travel far you can retrofit two jump and/or two large hydrogen tanks in the middle or rear hangars.

The Langley may have a lot of hydrogen thrusters but she is still very heavy, to get into space you need to gain speed and raise the ships nose up by 45-60 degrees. Once you reach an altitude of 6000m you can try to tip the nose up some more but if you start to slow down then drop the nose a bit to stay at 100 m/s.
Every so often keep tipping it up until you are flying straight into space. You should have enough hydrogen for decending into atmosphere but I recommend finding some ice and filling up your hydrogen supplies.

I hope you all enjoy this new model!
