Well this is an new one. Has run into that rockets oscillates during launch, that is nose tip up and down during mechjeb launches but this is an problem in vacuum. Made an simple tanker to transport nuclear fuel from Minmus to LKO for future interplanetary crafts. Stock outside of the planetary bases nuclear storage container who is an fuel tank with 3 ton dry mass. 3.75 meter heat shield the 1.25 meter probe core, the nuclear tank, reaction wheels on the side nodes, fuel tank, an drag plate made of 4 wing parts as drag plate, a bit clipping in corners, its type D or E wing connectors, metal plates as landing legs, 4 twitch engines they clip trough the wing sections. then an second nuclear storage module, and the second stage, Rocket during launch Using 12 fins at rear it was stable during atmospheric flight. The problem was then either telling ship to rotate to node it would not dampens it rotation but swing forward and back, an mechjeb burn would start to swing wildly at once. If I put it on node marker and did an normal burn even set to point towards node. See two problems here clipping however not anything I have not done before or the reaction wheels on the sides of the tank, --- I have tested this with removed the drag plate wings and replaced the two reaction wheels with one below the fuel tank did not help.
