Hard core grand tour

[TJPrime]

Hello, I'm TJPrime. Pretty soon, I'll be starting up a youtube series that will involve two challenges: Ell's Ultimate HardKore Challenge and the grand tour + Jeb level for the Ultimate Jool-5 Challenge.

In other words, I'll be using the harder mods (plus some visual packs) to attempt a grand tour mission. I chose to do a youtube series because it would add publicity to my channel, plus I'd been thinking about doing this for a while.

Also, when I get the technology, I'll be sending some probes to the Jool system to map all the bodies there before selecting a landing spot. Each orbiter will also have a lander, and will resemble the Rosetta mission. There will also be a voyager-type mission that will transmit some data from the Jool system, before taking a picture of the kerbol system.

The configuration for the video's will be on every Monday and Friday (give or take a day). Here is a playlist of my video's so far, the most recent video and when the next video will be uploaded:

Also, every 10th episode, I will stream! So you have that to look forward to!

Here's my single launch, no refuel, stock grand tour ship that includes a reusable lander for all planets except Eve (Eve is a separate one time use lander), including Tylo with reusable rover and reusable probes (you're not going to land on a planet without first sending an unmanned probe, are you?). I finished the mission with fuel to spare.

Stevenlawyer, that's an absolutely amazing video. I truly don't understand how you ever managed to get that lift to function as well as you did, and get the rocket to hang together in the way it did.

I'd be keen to see the rest of it, with just Eve down, a large portion of fuel is already gone. I'll never understand what people do with Moho and its absurd requirements on these grand tours.

That said, I think it deserves its own thread, rather being a note on several others.
