Conseptualized by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), the Kankoh-Maru is an SSTO designed to carry passengers into orbit in a fully reusable vehicle. This wide egg-shaped rocket is powered by 12 engines in total. To fully take advantage of the efficiency of the main engines, deactivate the booster engines once you reach an altitude of 15km. And this rocket, unlike its modded counterpart, is made entirely with stock parts. But beware, this vehicle is still very difficult to land.
Controls:
- Slider 1: set to 100% to open hatch

(and because it is not (yet?) in the description : slider 1 is hatch, slider 2 is landing gear, both need their respective AG to be activated)
edit : After orbit I was left with 3 % fuel (Im not a good pilot) and it was OK to land with this few fuel.
Great design........love it!!!!!
