This craft inspired by ESAs Hermes Shuttle.
Start:
Just start like an normal rocket, but dont make the gravity turn very fast(you will loose controll)
Orbit:
Detach the main engine and burn into a circular Orbit, or whatever you want. I gave him a lot of dV, so that you can put an Cargo inside or aim for an high orbit,. Maybe Luna?
The rotation is still very hard. so docking is also very hard.
Reentry:
When you are above the continent in front of the "MainContinent". Burn, that you will crash in the ocean in front of the continent behind the main one.
Rotate the shuttle prograde. And turn off RCS at around 50000 km. after that DONT TOUCH THE KEYBORD (or at least quicksave ;) ) when you reached around 1100 m/s you can slowly start controlling.
Line up with the runway, press 1 to open the landing legs and then move slider 1 up to 100% to lower the wheels.
Land. press 3 for parachute.

Actiongroups: 1 : Landing legs
2 : Cargobay
3 :parachute
9: Solar Panels
0 : RCS

This is my first "big" craft, so dont be too hard ;) It needs a lot of improvement, but for this i need more experience. Maybe i will update after some time.
Big thanks to all the people from the MCLovinspace community, you helped me alot.

HAve fun
