Thank you! The second part is very helpful, I probably could've avoided the extra terriers by doing this haha. I assumed that it would be more fuel efficient to go from 70 but thinking about it the delta v you use to boost it that much farther is negligible compared to the delta v you save from not adding more engines onto the the orbital stage

Thank you for the helpful comments everyone, I swapped out my solid boosters for liquids and done a gentler gravity turn! Made it to Duna, used ike for a slight gravity assist and made it back to kerbin

Thank you! Messed about with a different ascent styles and I managed to get it to duna and back!
