Ark - x [23.5]

Larger transport - looks like an Antonov to me. Control and handling are good, but there's a problem with un-commanded pitch when attempting a barrel roll. Probably due to too many elevators. I have not yet placed the rocket fuel for the hybrid engines. If you do it, I recommend feeding the center tank / fuselage part, as it is feeding the engines. I will get around to refining the roll issue, and also SSTO capability. Not sure when so I am uploading what I have...

Ok got it into orbit today with two orange drop tanks added, and RCS. It's more of a flying hangar I suppose. It's climbs pretty steep ( <45 degrees) and so with patience I think it should be able to place objects in orbit. I will need a bit more jet fuel (I am just running out with the vehicle empty) and you will want to add rocket fuel as needed - I recommend adding equal amounts to the front and rear of the orange tanks.
