Actually the front section, the back section, and each of the three mech bays are separate modules connected by technic pins. However, I reinforced the (...)

The detailing and curviture to the front gives it a smooth connection to the hanger portion. I don't think the mechs are too small. (...)

Hi Brian! One thing you'll notice that is different between ball joint and gear driven mechs is the range of motion using gears is very linear. That being the case, balance will now be a larger factor in building than it ever was before. My personal (...) (20 years ago, 21-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.org.us.cedarlug, FTX)

(...) I think there's a parallel between building mechs and building cargo ships, because the inside (either the joint tech or the cargo space) dictates what you can do with the outside.
