Yet another mini-Ariane 6

The Vinci-like third stage has remote capability, so you can turn it around and de-orbit just like in ESA's animation.

Unlike Ariane 6 I wait with shroud separation until later because the delta-v ratio between the solid and third stages isn't what I'd like.

It has radial decouplers between the sections of the first stage: They've never been intended to be used but I had "interesting" unscheduled decouplings between them using other methods, sometimes even before launch -- this was the simplest remedy.

You're supposed to build your own payload, this is just an example.

I recommend enable RCS before launch even though it's quite stable during first stage.

Made primarily to learn more about solid fuel rocket design which I've neglected for months.
