I'm sorry but that launcher is clearly inspired from the rocket used in the demonstration.

Also, your launcher is surprisingly performing. I recreated it, this is what I ended with:

We have a similar quantity of fuel in LEO, but I'm only at 7338 m/s instead of your 8466 m/s. You blow up my performance by more than 1000 m/s... Is there something special you did to explain this?

Ah ok, That will be changed in a future post. Sorry!

I belive what may have happened is I transferred the fuel into the upper stage. I looked at the mission requirements and it did not mention that. I should have looked a bit closer at some of the questions or asked one myself. So again, Sorry

I will most likely reattempt this one

Oh yeah, I didn't think about that. Indeed you can't use the fuel from the probe.

But it's doable, don't forget that the mass limit has been increased to 265 tons too.
