(...) Yes, you're absolutely correct about this, and it's a problem a lot of modern MBTs have as well. However, those hatches were the only pieces I had that could solve this particular design problem. Blame LEGO. Taking this one step further (...) (19 years ago, 22-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

You might try making a joint that only moves laterally at the hip (like with 2x2 turntables), and has a fixed minimum downward angle (like with click hinges that are wedged on the upper side to a fixed angle - they can bend down, but not up past a (...)
