I got the game in March and just started playing it, and every time I try to make an orbit around kerbin, it turns out all sloppy like this and not in a circle. I’ve watched videos and tried it a lot of times but I still can’t get it right. Any tips?

EDIT: I cannot thank you guys enough for the tips, this is one of the most welcoming and helpful communities I’ve ever seen you are all awesome!
