Ship never strong enough to leave planet. (thrust issues)

[ItsAsylum]

Hello, i am new to the game and to the community. So i have a question. No mater what i do to my ship, it always ends up being too week to leave a planets atmosphere. Am i doing something wrong?? I have at least 30 thrusters on it with 100 percent power.

You need a 2:1 thrust to mass ratio.

or a passive stop effect to stop the gravity affecting you.

or do what I do - launch yourself upwards by slamming your ship's nose down, then go into orbit by holding W and E and abuse plate gravity shifting to get off the planet.
