Hi, guys I'm trying to go to Dres right now on an Apollo style mission with a lander and an unmanned tanker/transfer stage which will be in orbit. I have mining modules on the lander too. After going to Duna and sending a rover to Eve. I've unlocked enough parts to do this but my only problem is fuel. The first stage and second stage is fine but my interplanetary transfer stage/tanker is the problem. I'm also using a Rhino engine for the transfer (nuclear engines are too weak). After completing the transfer burn, i don't have enough fuel for the plane change and capture burn. I even took out a lot of Lf+Ox of the lander fuel tank since it doesn't need that much fuel to land on Dres. Is there any way or any mods that will help me to do this? Thanks!

Good evening to you all. I'm sure the answers to this question can be found somewhere on the forum, but apparently I'm not entering the right search criteria. I am running an unmodded 1.2.2 version of KSP and want to know how to accomplish an interplanetary transfer using launch windows and gravity assists. Let's just say my target is Duna. How do I accomplish setting a flight plan from Kerbin SOI to the orbit of Duna?
