Description

After playing KSP for 1000 hours this is the craft i end up with.

Basically you can land and escape any rock planets and moons except for Eve.
You can perform vertical landing with the VTOL engine on Tylo.

Tylo and Moho mission capability has already been tested in gameplay with no gravity assist trick used.

To achieve that, you must refuel the craft on nearby moons with low gravity(Pol and Gilly). For Tylo landing, initiate with full oxidizer.

Tylo landing has no margin for error, so i would recommend killing horizontal speed manually and switching to MJ auto landing on final descent.

Tylo landing is demonstated in this video:

Unable to take off vertically on Tylo.
You need a flat ground and pitch up 45 degrees asap with 80% of maximum liquid fuel.

Breaking Ground DLC and Mechjeb are used in this craft.

You May Download MJ from here:
https://ksp.sarbian.com/jenkins/job/MechJeb2-Release/

Auto Strut must be enabled in KSP settings.

Use shortcut 5,6 and 7 to control the VTOL engine.

No kerbals went KIA when testing this craft. They are just missing.

Hi harun.amrizal, i will soon post a long range version by switching most of rocket fuel tanks into liquid fuel tanks. Thanks for your reply !

Hi Cannibal i understant that it is very hard to fly someone else's craft since there are a lot of tricks that only the creator know. I recorded this video of Tylo vertical landing to prove the craft's capability since landing on Tylo is the second hardest task for a SSTO:
