LC Cruiser III 'Eagle' - 15 tons payload to Laythe SSTO

Part of my SSTO Series, my LC Cruiser III 'Eagle' is an interplanetary SSTO that is designed to bring 15 tons, or less, to the surface of Laythe. It does this really well too. But before I give too much info, just watch this video to see how it preforms in specific scenarios:

I don't know how my crappy computer survived all these visual mods

As you can see, it brought a 15 ton payload to Laythe, and then flew back.

Payload info:

It might be a little weird the way the payload is mounted on this SSTO. Before you put your payload into a subassembly, put a docking point on the side of it, aligned with the center of mass. Then set the root part to the docking port, then put it into a subassembly. As long as your payload isn't too fat, you should be fine. The maximum payload that i expect from another player to bring is about 16-17 tons, with the inclination change on the transfer being small, but I chose the most inclinationy route on my mission, and still had spare fuel. So, I set the maximum limit, for the average player to 15 tons.

Very nice SSTO. Even has above .2 TWR (atomics) with the extra 15 tons attached. Looks 'Kraken' proof also.
