Actually I have built the "Ryu" mech from the LCad instructions on Karim's
site, it is about 95% complete and will stand on it's own (with some careful
balancing) as long as the booster "backpack" is not attached.I have made some
changes to the design however to get more strength and articulation and to
work around parts shortages but most of Karim's design is clearly there.
By the way I would like to thank Karim for taking the time to make LCad
instructions of his models and all of you who do so, thank you.
Looking forward to your site update(now if only instructions for that
transforming dragon mecha would magically appear!)

| (...) Ahem... Yes, well, I can see that that might be a problem... I did actually build about 60% of that "booster pack", and it stands up just fine... but It kinda grew a little bit due to aesthetic considerations during the LCADing process... (...)
