Looks like a great model! I just bought one (black, without motors) and will
report back when I get it built. In fact this is the first time I’ve ordered
someone’s model from LEGO Factory. I am amazed at how smooth the process
went.

Well it has arrived! I downloaded the instructions from legofactory.com and man
do they stink! I don’t think it is any reflection on the design - the software
just isn’t doing a very good job of coming up with the steps for creating this
model. Once I have it built I may create instructions for it using MLCAD if
anyone wants to give it a whirl. It is coming together fairly well though it’s
quite a struggle.
If you don’t know what I mean try it - download the .lxf file and use the step
by step mode (F7 I think) in LDD. The first 271 steps are one piece at a time,
many of which are just floating in midair, and then step 272 has dozens of
pieces being added all at once. Then back to hundreds of steps with one piece
at a time being added, mostly in midair (hopefully not too many being inserted
into the middle of the model!!)...
