Some Must Have Mods?

So, I've been looking around some of the mods recently, but none of them seemed to suit my interests. I watched Scott Manley's video about his essential mods. Despite Mechjeb (I already have it) what are some of the must have mods in your guys opinion?

Currently I have:

Subassembly Saver/Loader

KW Rocketry

Mechjeb

I always run with KSPX, in addition to MechJeb. It's a solid parts pack that uses an aesthetic that is basically indistinguishable from the stock parts (the original author was hired by Squad to make parts for them). Other good parts packs are B9 Aerospace and KW Rocketry - I have them both installed but I try to run mostly stock (for rockets at least, I'm a little more open-minded for aircraft), so I only end up using things like adapters and minor structural elements from the non-KSPX sets.

KW Rocketry I actually have that mod, it's a really nice mod.

I know you've seen Scott Manley's recommended mods, but if you don't have these, I can't stress enough how nice they are:

- ISA Mapsat - for finding anomalies!

- Crew Manifest - for Jeb, Bob, and Bill!

- Subassembly Loader - for easier rocket, rover, and payload construct/modularity!

I can't live without the Maneuver Node Improvement mod. It allows you to just press O to select your maneuver node. It helps *tremendously* when doing interplanetary maneuvers. Also, you can type in delta-Vs for each axis of the node (i.e. prograde/retro, axis N+/N-, and rad+/-) and allows you to change conics mode. The conics modes basically let you view your resulting orbit around your target in a few different ways.
