      glad that you enjoyed! sadly, there is a little trick here: the title and the preview say "stock parts SSTO" and not "stock SSTO" for a reason. to be more or less stable this craft needs the Kerbal Joint Reinforcement mod, which, obviously, makes stock wobbly joints much stronger.

I want see like a Pilots prospective flash cut with gauges showing giving the realness to the build and that you actually put this thing into the Kerbin world. I want to see that big @ss thing flying through the debris cloud (if possible) and then trying to get repaired from all the obvious damage lol.
