Are my designs good?

[BenHR]

Here's my best rocket and plane.

The AT-675, and:

The Treyciard Mk-19 LR. This series has brought Kerbals to all the place's I've put them. And hasn't brought a single one back! (I think some of the struts broke 'cause I fast-forwarded to make it day)

So, tell me, what am I doing right and what am I doing wrong? I really want to make a rocket that can send a guy to Laythe, but I think I've pushed the Treyciard to it's limits.

You may also download them.

(Sorry for big pictures. I wanted to make 'em smaller, but I couldn't figure out how)

I suppose I could help redesign your rocket to go to Laythe, the question being, will it be a one way trip?

If it's a one way trip, the design could be fairly easy to pull off. For a return mission.... Well, it gets pretty damn elaborate

For the Treyciard, you don't really need that much RCS. In fact, unless your craft is too big or you're going to dock, you don't need RCS at all.

Also, You've got four heavy landing legs on such a small lander. Three of the medium ones should be enough.

If you want, you can give it a shot. I once replaced the LV-N with a Xenon engine. It probably would have made it, it even got into solar orbit before I had to switch to the Xenon, but then it said it would take, like, a week or something to get the orbit out to Jool. So... no. The Mk19 there can get to Jool, but runs out of fuel. That's how I got a stable orbit of it in my ribbons. I got caught by Vall a few times. I hoped it would send me on a collision course with Jool, but nope. It did tighten up my orbit a bit, but only just enough to never get caught by Vall again.

Also, this is friggin' awesome.

And now you all know what my interests are.
