Hoo boy.
There were some real improvements with the design for The Luda Lander in this video, but overall the final version they launched was a step back from MunShot Check Fuel Lines in Project B.E.A.S.T. 4. I didn't launch the design they teased at the end of the video - got to save something for the next one!
In summary the thing is very much a pain to fly, bogged down with fuel, and the itty-bitty side-mounted thruster stage makes no sense whatsoever. The solar panels are super outsized for what's needed, but make more sense than the externally-mounted nuclear fuel source. Keep trying, guys!

Okay so let's try to optimize liftoff, Mun transfer, and Mun landing a little better and see how we do.
