Ok so I have created one (simi) successful SSTO. However during its re-entry it started to flip around and was unable to regain control. Now I cant get back into orbit (trying to find the perfect balance between weight and speed but that will take time and practice). However when I at least escape the atmosphere, I see if it will do fine in re-entry. None so far have had good gliding re-entrys and all go into a unrecoverable flip around 20,000m. What do I do?

The problem is that the CoM is shifting backwards as you consume fuel. You can fix this to some extent by transfering fuel to the front. Also, some pictures would help. :)

sorry about the pics. Ive been busy just trying to get my game to work.
