Interplanetary lander request! (No Refueling!)

Recommended Posts

Alright, so I've been wanting to get something on Duna for a while now, but all the interplanetary designs I've seen either require multiple launches, or refueling in orbit, two things which require rendezvous, which I can't do for the life of me even with the help of a man whose name rhymes with Schmott Danley, so if someone could give me a lander (With LV and dV sufficient to get to duna from Kerbin), that'd be great.

Most of the Duna missions that people show off do tend to be on the fancy side.  Awesome to watch, but definitely rough to try and copy.

This is the basic design that I learned to fly to Duna in (and to return again), if you're interested. For lack of a better name, I'll call it the "Duna Road Trip" (craft file on KerbalX). It's easy to fly and pretty forgiving.

Pics, flight plan, etc:
