With the older and smaller parts (ASAS, SAS, RCS tanks, ect.) we all have figured out that they don\'t fit well with the new command pod. So to combat this we just stack the RCS and SAS modules on top of the pod and put the parachute on top like a cherry on a cake. however, whenever I re-enter Kerbin and deploy my parachute it usually will just rip the RCS and SAS right off of the command pod and leave my poor kerbals falling to their doom. So to share with you all I just recently discovered how to conceal my parachute and prevent it from ripping off, and it just plain looks cool . first we take our parachute and ASAS attached to an upside down decoupler (so the decoupler leaves the pod with the ASAS) now we attach the parachute on top of the pod. note: don\'t let the parachute snap into position, place the parachute the best you can in the middle without letting it snap. and now the SAS fits snugly over the top and as you can see, as you re-enter your concealed parachute is ready to deploy
