Thank you! It's only fair to say, though, that this technique is inspired
from the 8448 Supercar. I don't posess the 8448 yet, but I've spent some time
looking at pictures of it! :-)

Yes, it's a matter of having a lot of flexible hoses lying around and trying
to connect them at different points to see how they bend. I have cheated in
the images, because the only hoses I have in blue are the ones from 8444
Chopper Force. I've written some more details about this in
http://www.lugnet.com/cad/dat/models/?n=1056
BTW, I just noticed that there were two black pins missing in the roof of the
model, so I rerendered it and reuploaded the images.

lugnet.cad. Obviously, this comment would have been better suited for
lugnet.technic. Ah, well...
