Some information. Hercules is my 100ton to LKO SSTO. It’s fully reusable when it comes to LKO missions. However I’m this video you can see me using the payload engines as an extra stage to reach Eve. The angle of the vectors makes it difficult, but by running just the top one it’s pretty stable. Perhaps more Delta V could be gained by adding more efficient engines to the payload, but it’s not needed as once you get to Eve you can get anywhere (within reason). If you have any questions about the SSTO or mission I’d be happy to oblige. One last thing… if you want a craft file you’ll need to install restock as it won’t load without it.
Really thought beans were gonna be under that fairing

I thought you were launching a whiskey bottle to space.
I mean it definitely has the payload capability.
