do i really need all of the dlc

Been using this as a starter ship in my most recent play through and It's fantastic. You did a great job.

This is a really nice little ship, that as a starter ship would demonstrate a few less known building tricks to new players (like using passages as funnels). It also don't come with everything + the kitchen sink (well there is a kitchen). There's room to make your own modifications and it should be fairly easy for new players to do so.
When I just tested it out, I managed to bring about 350t of ore from a low orbiting asteroid back down to the surface (you should probably not exceed a total mass of 600t). That's pretty good for such a small ship.
I also learned one advantage of having a connector in the front that I haven't considered before; you can put the tiny drill ship that was parked in the hangar there and use the entire construct as a mining ship. :)
It does have a few quirks, but that's how you learn!

can you make this 1 purely whit the Sci-fi Ion engines i got a mod that uses that model

This is a great, well built ship that is compact and uses the space inside very well. Aesthetically pleasing, light on PCU and very functional. Love how you did the hangar as well.

you are really good at industrial ships, one of the best ive seen compared to others. nothing else gives that rugged feel, or is the perfect balance between brick and not-a-brick. i like it.

Just checked your page. You've got some nice ships going on here

Nicely done!

This is awesome! Well done! 😁

Pretty compact and useful...

Another beautiful ship from the P. Prospector series
