  Re: VTOL Patrol Craft
 
I think everyone agrees, the tail and the landing gears are the best features. great work Mark. David Rabadan "Tiera must be rebuilt at all cost!" Lieutenant Jason "Rattlesnake" Reedyk of the 1st Tieran Marine Corp. (...) (23 years ago, 10-Oct-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military)

Please don't ask me why this didn't go to all of the groups that I put in, oh well I'll repost. -Geordan- (...) (23 years ago, 10-Oct-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military)
 
  Re: VTOL Patrol Craft
 
Spiffy. Like the others, I like the tapered tail. :-) (...) (23 years ago, 10-Oct-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military)
 
  Re: VTOL Patrol Craft
 
Great job Mark! nice job with the overall shape, ie tapering, I love the landing gear too, the extended cockpit is nice as well, Nice work! -Geordan- (...) (23 years ago, 9-Oct-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military)

(...) Hey very cool Steve! That looks great! very cool form, you portrayed the angles perfectly! thats awesome! I love this thing! Ouch, I really feel for the guy getting run over. ;-D Great job! -Geordan- (23 years ago, 9-Oct-01, to lugnet.loc.jp, lugnet.technic, lugnet.build.military)
 
  Re: VTOL Patrol Craft
 
(...) I wanted to angle the wings, so I just used a couple of the old skool plate-hinges. :^) (...) Nope. That's just the light leaking through the solid red 4x4 cylinders. (...) Thanks. (...) Those come from the UCS X-Wing. (...) Good, that's what (...) (23 years ago, 9-Oct-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military)

(...) is different. (...) fins on the front look good too. (...) an airscoop on the bottom, F-16 style. (...) Cool neato! Overall, another great model from our resident Admiral! Rick (23 years ago, 9-Oct-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military)
 
  Re: VTOL Patrol Craft
 
I definitely like the landing gear. Simple to build, yet visually tasty. I also like the taper along the aft section of the body. I haven't figured out how to taper properly - yet. You and Rick seem to have a knack for pulling that off. -Duane (...) (23 years ago, 9-Oct-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military)
 
  VTOL Patrol Craft
 
Hi Everyone, I made a VTOL Patrol craft and snapped a few pics at the SEALUG meeting on Saturday. So have a look: (URL) is powered by two large turbofans atop the fuselage, and has a single internal fan that powers four thrust nozzles beneath. The (...)

(...) He's smiling because he's plastic and he knows the tank won't really hurt him! :-). Or it could just be the way he's printed! Steve (23 years ago, 6-Oct-01, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.build.military)

Why is this man smiling... (URL) Nice job Steven! Cheers, Ralph (23 years ago, 6-Oct-01, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.build.military)

My tank now has a proper site, I should have done it a while ago, but it's here now. You can find it at: (URL) (23 years ago, 6-Oct-01, to lugnet.loc.jp, lugnet.technic, lugnet.build.military)  
 
  Re: I'm "Screw"ed!
 
(...) Of premade parts, Larry's solution (the windmill fan) will probably look best. But if you're feeling adventurous, you might try to make one from a clutch of 3x3 plates with one round corner. I got a pretty good approximation of a ship screw (...) (23 years ago, 4-Oct-01, to lugnet.boats, lugnet.build.military)
 
  Re: I'm "Screw"ed!
 
(...) The technic propeller (which I can't find in Partsref unfortunately, but is used on the tail of the 8412 Wasp) is 9 wide. You can mount two back to back on an axle so they are only 1 deep. Problems with this are that you can only have 4 blades (...) (23 years ago, 4-Oct-01, to lugnet.boats, lugnet.build.military)
 
  Re: I'm "Screw"ed!
 
(...) That'd be pretty cool-- I think the propellor would end up being something like 3 bricks tall/thick using that scheme? (I think each step/"blade" is what, 2 plates thick?) That might be just about right for such a large propeller... DaveE (23 years ago, 4-Oct-01, to lugnet.boats, lugnet.build.military)
 
  Re: I'm "Screw"ed!
 
(...) Outback Airstrip windmill blades? About the right shape except the blades aren't slanted but that's minor. (23 years ago, 4-Oct-01, to lugnet.boats, lugnet.build.military)

  I'm "Screw"ed!
 
I need help on the Submarine's screw. Propeller for the un-navy terms. It needs to be about 8-10 wide, and have 5-8 blades. :) THanks In advance. Rick (23 years ago, 4-Oct-01, to lugnet.boats, lugnet.build.military)
 
  Re: The fork tailed devil! A small scale P-38
 
(...) Thanks, I've been mulling over a P-38, and toying with ideas for the difficult rounded shapes, such as the cockpit and the tail, and I have some ideas, but it will be quite a while before (if ever) I get it done, the spit is taking a rather (...)
