Can carry up to 250 tons (keep the first stage twr above 1.08x) into low droo orbit. Make sure to leave a bit of fuel in stock when you've deployed your payload. To land, put the thing in retrograde, fire the engines up and pray that you hit a body of water, because land means butt clench time. Both is possible if you're careful enough tho, just activate the jet engines right before reentering and keep em firing all the way from 60 km to sea level, keep the rcs on during this part since its the only way this craft can keep istelf on track during this part, once slow enough, lock up on the navball and hope that you have enough seconds of fuel left to close the few hundred meters that you got left.
Good luck

I like the conical wedge design. I haven't had much luck or patience with rockets shaped like this.

@TestRunner oh yeah. Figuring out how to tame this beast on landing was fun, and a big pain

Lol I love any build with the ending words "good luck!" It gives me aspiring thoughts. ;)

Never seen someone describe the "pucker factor" of landing a large SSTO as well as this craft's description. 10/10
