Julian II- Semi-Realistic Space Shuttle

[Imaginer1]

Wow, guys, it took a long day but I finally made a successful, working space shuttle that's faithful to the original launch design, along with the ability to hold a small satellite payload and dock with space stations.

Launch requires constant - but not incredibly difficult - adjustment of the throttle limit of the main two thrusters (if you've got a bit of practice).

Here it is releasing a MechJeb probe:

And say goodbye to boring landing lights because these ones are super glam green and purple:

If anyone wants the .craft file I'll put it up along with the payloads I've used.

What do you think in terms of how it looks? When I post it, I'm sure it'll get a very low rating on how it flies. However, it can still go to LKO with plenty of fuel to spare and land like an airplane, and that's good enough for me.

Dayum, green and purple landing lights. Fancy.

Neat work. While I've made a couple of shuttles in the past, they are definitely not the easiest thing to do and to have one that can do the job it's meant to do is good, so good work

It's hard to do but I have a load of fun with it, and right now I'm working on a space shuttle that's capable of interplanetary missions. It's an uncalled for behemoth.
