Hmm, perhaps there a range of parts I should CAD. The flex rods are pretty simple and the tube is already done.

The <http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cgi?f=parts/2900.dat older type

ball version.

The newer pin connectors are quite complicated but there are only two types and one is double version of the other. The complicated bit has also already been modelled in the ball version!

Don’t hold me to it ;-)

Maybe you want to get some inofficial parts from my model: I have done the needed Flex parts for my BR23 engine. They are part of the MPD-file (I included all inofficial parts as subparts).

In the meantime I have even made the BFC complient. But still I seem to be to stupid to upload them at the parts tracker at ldraw.

If you like to do, maybe you are able to upload them?

Ben
