Orbit 1 was the first orbital rocket I made as part of a hybrid career mode series.
It uses a single kerolox gas generator on the first stage and has a spin-stabilised SRM 'ball' as the second stage.
The first stage uses engine gimbal, fins and RCS thrusters for guidence and control. The upper stage's only guidance is the spin stabilisation, so you have to plan the upper stage burn before seperation and use the RCS thrusters to aim at the right direction to reach orbit. (ideally start aiming a bit before the burn starts, just before deployment and ignition)
It has a 1.6m diameter, 16.4m height and a 524kg payload capacity.
