      Additionally,
      Today...
      I was capable of creating a 'Spinbot' that only used Reaction Wheels and Basic Fins as propulsion, and reached speeds of 300m/s easily.
      The 'Spinbot' became unstable, which caused it to... 'land' into the ground at very high speeds, causing a 'premature disassembly', and 'pretty lights'.
      So, it may actually be possible to orbit with the Reaction Wheel method.
      I was also abusing Timewarp x4, but that's not important.

    Cool! I never thought of using the minimum amount of fuel in a sepratron to gain more acceleration.
    You didnt mention how you ended up dealing with the ground unrendering past a certain speed. I know back when strazenblitz did his run, it was a pretty huge problem. Did the 1.8 terrain improvements change that aspect of terrain rendering or did you simply not encounter the problem due to the insane acceleration?
