Several builders have privately agreed to do Soren's build anyway just for fun. The "group" for lack of a better term would like to re-open it to .mecha. We are following the original rules posted in Soren's challenge: "We’re building this: (URL) (...) (19 years ago, 22-Dec-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)

I saw this plane on BrisckShelf before you posted it here, and wow! it's beautifull! My favorite detail, what amazed me the most are the vectoring thrusters. Excellent!

(...) Hi Eric, I actually intended that the inherent backlash in the z16s was exploited to turn them in a little after the positioning. You could replace my z16s with two z24s and a z8, making one of the z24s a clutch gear so you could turn them (...) (19 years ago, 22-Dec-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.technic)

Hey Danny, thats interesting. You may be on to something. I'm wondering, when a corrective tension is added (turning the opposing gear) the center of the axle will twist.
