KSP DeltaV is a utility app for the game Kerbal Space Program. It will calculate the deltaV, cost, part count and a whole lot more for your Kerbal Space Program rocket. It will also calculate the minimum deltaV required to get to the Kerbal planets and back. You can easily create different versions of your rockets and compare them to optimize the deltaV!
Note: This is not a game itself, unless you think designing the rockets is the fun part. KSPDeltaV is not a VAB and cannot export craft files. This app is designed to be used with Kerbal Space Program (sold separately).
Included Features:
- Design rockets to visit multiple planets and moons.
- Calculate Delta-V for any two bodies orbiting a common body.
- Air braking option for planets with atmosphere.
- No need to calculate initial and final mass your self - KSP DeltaV does it all for you!
- Calculates the thrust to weight ratio for each stage (Including the mass from stages stacked above. Just select the next stage in the Next Stages section and all mass from stages above will be included automatically).
- Calculates cost, part count and mass for the entire rocket and each sequence and stage individually.
- Ability to add a custom payload mass to stages.
- Ability to add mass and cost for procedural fairings.
- Select parts from a list of stock parts from the game to design your rocket from.
- Ability to adjust resource levels of individual parts.
- Views that show planetary phase angle, ejection angle and parking orbit for Intercept (transfer) rocket sequences.
- CopyPaste rockets, sequences, stages and parts.

Pros and cons of KSP DeltaV app for iPhone and iPad
KSP DeltaV app good for
Wanna know if your rocket has enough mustard to complete its mission? This handy App lets you creates mission plans, design rockets and calculate delta v for each sequence and stage.
Awesome companion for Kerbal Space Program! Not only a must have for console players, also handy for rocket design and mission planning on the go.
Simple but complete interface, all parts are there and up to date as of this review. There is not much in the way of help, but is intuitive enough for any kerbalnaut to figure out.
Well worth the price! And it looks like the dev keeps it up to date. Excellent work!
A must have for any kerbanaut!
Good app, nice&useful. The only minor drawback is that it calculates TWR for individual stage only, will be better if it would for the whole rocket up above.
Some bad moments
Its a good program but its very difficult to design a rocket. You play with pictures and you try to assemble them without any global visualization.
I dont recommend it, play KSP on computer.
I like how it is easy to use. I would like if it had more information.
Lots of utility! Tons of great information and easy to use. The only two things that I can think of to make the app better would be to be able to add in moons to the calculation (or maybe I havent found that function yet), and atmosphere altitudes in the description
Would be nice to have more than one of the same component(solid engines) in one stage
This app gets better with every update. You can set the quantity of a component in the part detail view from the stage. Quantity affects the mass of the stage and for engines, Used controls the TWR and impulse of the stage. This is handy for rockets that use "asparagus" staging.
Thanks to this app, I landed on Duna for the first time ever.
I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a useful app for KSP.
