Note: At 0:48 the Oscar tank doesn't appear to be draining fuel because I'm tabbed out of the game. You can look at the fuel monitor in the corner or the delta-v readout to see that fuel is still draining. Or just look at 0:50 to see what happens when I tab back into the game.
The Mechjeb unit works as a control point in this orientation. The rocket still works with the EVA seat control point, but I need to control pitch and roll instead of yaw angle, and I'm not good enough of a pilot to do that consistently. In an actual mission I'll probably ditch the mechjeb unit as it adds drag and doesn't really give any advantage beyond convenience.
Impressive video once again, I can't imagine the amount of fine tuning that went into getting this thing into orbit. Any plans on any KSP 2 content any time soon, or are you gonna wait for some of the crazy ass bugs to get patched before having your trip ruined by the kraken?

This is quite literally ballin
I would let this craft fly into me any time
nice shape
Optimal aerodynamic shape
Very nice!
OPAF
Now do it without MechJeb :D
I'm not good enough of a pilot for that 😭
how is your control point forward in the chair?
