Early- Mid tech, affordable Cylero lander.
Auto launch from DSC Bay to low Droo Orbit.

Perform planned burn as shown to enter Luna's SOI ( enter number, then drag burn node along orbit to find the closest approach) for gravity assisted escape.

Shortly after entering SOI, burn normal / anti-normal to minimize inclination till < 4 degrees, then burn on ascending / descending node to further reduce inclination below 0.1 degree. (ensure AG 1 is off when coasting to save energy. When performing burn, keep AG1 on to enable RCS)

Burn again in Juno orbit to enter Cylero's SOI. Decelerate to enter ~1500km circular orbit,
adjust inclination by burning normal / anti-normal near the equator.

Decelerate above target landmark to enter vertical fall.

Lock on target, turn on AG 1, AG3 and AG 10. Lander would auto land on target or minimize lateral velocity for upright landing.

Carrying rover for further exploration.

    @Frolonov OK, i Look the Video.
    I have build a Rocket with lander and abrover too, but i have No Vizzy this is ablittle Bit to high at the Moment.

    @HorusSpace There's a video of this lander in my profile showing the full process of landing. Heat damage could be avoided by entering the atmosphere below certain speed

    I have reach cylero. My first travel to another Planet 😉. But when i try to Land the Rover became Heat damage when i come to the Atmosphere... I try it again... IT is good to learn fly big distance.

    @Frolonov I don't think we should fly it. There's nothing near where I landed.

    @Starspace Save the rover independently as a craft so you can skip the landing part before testing it

    @Starspace Tested but no problem on my side. Might be problem with quick save/load or time warp.
    The vizzy on rover should function all the time because of the while loop.

    @Frolonov I'm not very good at landing. I just failed the landing test, so you should test it.

    @Frolonov Yes, I close it when coasting long distance, I will try it at sandbox mode.

    @Starspace need to turn off AG1 when coasting long distance, otherwise the battery would run out. May be a bug too. See if the trouble happens in sandbox mode.

    @Starspace Did you switch control to the rover?

    @Frolonov Why isn't it working? (I damaged two wheels when I landed earlier)

    @Starspace release it from interstage, turn on AG4,5, control it by pitch and roll
