The Evo-2 is a heavy lift launch vehicle designed to deploy payloads into LDO/GDO and to other celestial orbits.
This rocket is the direct successor of the Evo-1 [Block-2B] rocket released last year and is almost double as powerful.
As before the Evo-2 is a fully reusable rocket. The design has been slightly altered but stays true to the unique design of the Block-2B.

- Activate stage 1

- Activate stage 5 for stage separation
- Use RCS in translation mode to back away from second stage

โข When landing, it's suggested that you have both AG's 1 and 2 activated, AG 3 if needed, during your initial landing/suicide burn then switch to your singular landing engine.
โข It's best if the first stage is lands in a relatively flat area.
โข Ps: the first stage loves sitting up while in water
(๐ฆ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ผ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ฆ๐๐ฎ๐ด๐ฒ):
โขWhen reentering the second stage make sure RCS is activated.
โขUse the fairing at appropriate altitudes as an efficient aerobrake to reduce your velocity.

โขTo add your payload make sure it is only connected to docking port on the second stage. Other than the port itself, some part connections will be turned off to make it easier for you.
โขDue to the weird nature of physics involving parachutes now the snap threshold has been upped drastically.

โขThere is a simple vizzy code that will block you from activating the engine (AG 4) until the heat shield (AG 6) is activated. If this for some reason causes problems for you, deleting it won't cause any harm.

A very interesting reusable second stage concept. Nice!
