I was looking through the Orbiter Hangar and was quite surprised to find no trace of the X33 VentureStar. Has nobody made one?

Please call it only VentureStar! X-33 was just a subscale suborbital testbed for many of the technologies that would have gone into the VentureStar.

Ah, I was searching for VentureStar as one word - and it's called Venture Star.
Cool, thanks. I look forward to taking it for a spin. |

I have found myself only this one and it is called X-33 VentureStar. As far I know these are two separate vehicles. X-33 technology demonstrator of VentureStar. This addon craft doesn't fly well on Orbiter 2006P1 I have. Unresponsive to controls, I can't even approach and land with it ![]() Unfortunately both crafts were canceled by NASA due to lack of technology to produce strong and lightweight fuel tanks. However has anyone developed full scale VentureStar in more detail? I truly hope there will be more complex addon - as this craft truly deserves to have a long life within Orbiter since it is most realistic concept (at least known to me) of single stage to orbit and reentry/land vehicle.
