SSTO Help Please

[Umlüx]

i am trying to build a small SSTO but i am failing miserably.. i managed to get flameouts, empty fuel tanks, spinning, but no LKO...

maybe someone could have a look at my craft to tell me if there is something wrong with the design or if i am simply unable to fly it correctly?

I made some changes...

Before

After

I put another cockpit on the front and an ASAS to counterbalance the weight of the engines at the back.

Put another rocket tank on it to counterbalance the fuel at the back.

Added some more control surfaces. Replaced the bell with an aerospike. Straightened the landing gear.

Then later...

Two engines still make flameouts a pain. I think it's the worst setup... one, three, or four jets are all better options.

EDIT: oh yeah... clicky for craft file
