Is 2.5 hours enough time between domestic arrival and international departure at Stansted?

2.5 hours sounds reasonably safe, given the circumstances.

Longer is better, of course. You've booked two separate tickets, so if there is any failure of the original flight to land in Stansted with sufficient time, missing the second flight will be your problem to solve, not the airline's. (I think you are aware of this.)

The one and only time I've done this, I booked a four-hour window just to be 100% sure (and we were connecting at Heathrow, a busier airport). If the consequences of missing your second flight are severe, a longer connection is better, even if it means arriving the night before.
