Do you think compact fusion would be possible with room temp super conductors?

Post Body

I have a love/hate relationship with James Cameron's Avatar, but the part I love is the technology. They had Valkyrie shuttles which were able to function as SSTO spaceplanes because of compact fusion, likely aided by the Unobtanium room-temperature super conductors. Do you think they got that accurate or was that a hand wave? If we had a RTSC of any sort, would that open the door to not just fusion but compacted and powerful fusion plants that'd allow for SSTO spaceplanes and ships (not the ISV, that's antimatter/laser)?

Pandora is 0.8G so you gotta factor that in. The entire mission was entirely constructed around taking Pandora.
