Interplanetary Explorer Azhdarchidas

I saw this build: https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=1983958285 and was very impressed by the design. However i found that it doesn't work at all in Survival.

So i built something inspired by the design but actually works! The Azhdarchidas (Name derived from the Persian word for Dragon) features everything you need for long range exploration, planetary surveys or whatever else your explorer heart desires. Ore and ice processing, component assembly, a hangar for a small mining ship and large solar arrays make sure the ship stays operational even when far away from any civilization.

The ship comes with 2 landing pods which can be detached and landed on planetary surfaces and return from there once the mission is finished.

The cockpit can be detached as well to enable short range space exploration without having to move the entire ship.
