The Mark 1 Desu Moe Orbital Slingshot Lander

[Nymus]

Heyo KSP Forums, I've recently came up with the design for a pod which uses the apoapsis to slingshot itself to another location on Kerbin.

I've managed to land it quite a ways away from the Spacebase.

I was surprised when the capsule landed, because on the last test, the parachute deployed, then disappeared 30 seconds later! This design uses radial mount parachutes instead.

I'm looking for tips to improve on the design. I want to be able to fly to the North and South poles. There is an SAS, but in the landing picture, it fell off (for some reason).

Any suggestions, my Aeronautic Engineers Accomplices?

Welp, looks like someone likes anime. I like it, but maybe you could add an ascent stage to rescue stranded kerbonauts landed overseas. Nice job!

I actually hate anime (except Lucky Star and Renzo Maiden), I got the name idea from this:

An ascent stage... hmm... so it could re-enter a geostationary orbit, then launch itself when it comes near the space base?
