Do you mean km? 100 m above datum results in crashing into hills.

And what's the winning criterion? Best replica? It's fairly easy to make a craft that just to Mun orbit and back.

[NASAbulbafan]

Yes I made a mistake and the winning is best replica 

[Jestersage]

Is DLC counted as modded or not?

[NASAbulbafan]

Only stock parts

That doesn't quite answer the question - are you considering the DLC as non-stock?

[NASAbulbafan]

Yes. Only parts from when you start a sandbox game for the first time after the purchase

You should probably add a Launch Escape System requirement, and/or a free return trajectory.

I said the best mission replica wins so if you think it’s necessary, then do it

You should also have more catagories, such as lowest fuel, biggest rocket,  fastest, etc

Define "best mission replica".   (And you're first post needs to be edited with all the updates.)

Ja...Guess I'm making my *Counts in head* 789th Saturn v replica today for this challenge. *sigh*
