Thanks, Gil - and it was good to meet you online!
The variable wing was originally going to be a axle setup so the engines
could rotate, but I quickly learned that the ship would require gearing to
keep the engines in place. Also, the ship would be able to go in a direction
different from the cockpit, which I didn't think was too practical in a
fighter craft.
The drone was something I have been thinking about since I read a Popular
Science article about next-generation subs..they are designing subs with
breakaway modules that are remotely controlled and armed. I haven't figured
a mainsub for the drones, but that will eventually show itself:)
Thanks again!
Joe Meno
