ok am i doing this wrong (pics) [Stock]

[Firedtm]

ok every Large rocket i build i need to Strut the **** out of it, and by the time i get it in to orbit i end up with this

or this

is there any way to do it without the struts

P.S.

i use a stock game because i want too, i have nothing against using mods. its just i want to do stock till i feel i won the game (I.E. landed on all planets and moons, and come back)

If you dont want the struts start the strut connection on a piece that decouples, I do this all the time and never end up with struts on stuff when I get to space

i do that, and most time i end up with a rocket that goes boom boom

Why aren't there struts where you use 1 meter parts? Puts struts on each side connecting the weak connections together

also use grey fuel tank after every orange tank

Do you still go boom if you go at half thrust? It seems like a long craft I guess

That is my heavy lift template and I can usually get 1.5 orange tanks of fuel to orbit with no struts. Just make sure struts start under the last decouple, that way they disappear when decoupling the last stage

Why, what does that do?

Purists.

That is all.

Not really, only use just the amount of struts you need to remain stable.
