  Re: The Flying Wing
 
(...) It will tricky though. Sweep and taper is not easy to do. While you are at it, more red on the tails please. And those might need to extend further aft. That would also help soften the "straightness". Christian (20 years ago, 18-May-04, to lugnet.adventurers, lugnet.build.military)
 
  Re: The Flying Wing
 
(...) Hi Christian You are absolutely right. I think a little modification is needed. Thanks for your observation. I'll probably take more pictures after modififying the wing. Chris (20 years ago, 18-May-04, to lugnet.adventurers, lugnet.build.military)
 
  Re: The Flying Wing
 
(...) Excellent idea. As you write the best part is the rear gunner. I am looking forward to seing more pictures. However I think that the planform is too straight. The wings needs to be swept back and maybe more tapering. Christian (20 years ago, 17-May-04, to lugnet.adventurers, lugnet.build.military)
 
  Re: Motorized Tank
 
Okay, after several failed attempts to increase the speed of the tracks, here's video of the tank in operation. It clocks in at 5MB so be sure you can handle the file: (URL) Video> Enjoy! Soren (20 years ago, 17-May-04, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.announce.moc, FTX)
 
  The Flying Wing
 
After watching "Raiders" again for the umpteenth time, I made a quick sketch of the flying wing and then proceeded to build it (with Indy getting beaten up in the background). It was this plane that led me to the "prototypes" webpages and new ideas (...) (20 years ago, 17-May-04, to lugnet.adventurers, lugnet.build.military)
 
  Bryce Rollins on a roll!
 
As mentioned a few months ago, Bryce posted both an F-4 and F-105 harkening back to the Nam era fighter jets. Offline to him I had mentioned seeing a detachment of F-100s stationed at Missouri Air National Guard in St Louis. In no short order he had (...) (20 years ago, 15-May-04, to lugnet.build.military)
 
  Re: Messerschmitt Me Libelle
 
(...) Wow Chris, this is really great stuff! The Blohm und Voss is awesome, I've always wanted to do some MOCs of BV's assymetrical planes. The whole 'Lost Plane' hunters is a very cool idea also, good enough to be an official Adventurers subtheme, (...) (20 years ago, 15-May-04, to lugnet.adventurers, lugnet.build.military, FTX)
 
  Messerschmitt Me Libelle
 
Hi everyone I would like to introduce the Messerschmitt Me Libelle. This is another prototype from the luftwaffe and I think it makes for a fun little MOC. I didn't spend much time on retracting gear - I was going more for the overall "playability" (...) (20 years ago, 14-May-04, to lugnet.adventurers, lugnet.build.military, FTX)  
 
  Re: Tank Track
 
PITSCO Lego DACTA sells the wider tracks at $9.00 US for 36 links, and the smaller tracks at $9.00 for 105 links. That's just off the top of my head. Kind of expensive, but mint condition... Your call. Soren (20 years ago, 9-May-04, to lugnet.build.military)
 
  Re: Tank Track
 
(...) Of course, the other possibility is PITSCO Lego DACTA (whose URL and so forth are, I think, in .market.shopping's sidebar). If you need a whole lot of them, you may get the price down to a quarter or less a tread link. Yeah, I know it's not (...) (20 years ago, 9-May-04, to lugnet.build.military)
