Hi Richie,
Thanks for the feedback. I'm glad you like it; is there anywhere that I can
see James' dropship?
Steering mechanisms on larger vessels are wierd. Imean an auto pilot could
do it but then the pilot also needs to have control with full
manouvreability. I considered using joysticks buy they just didn't fit the
part. The handlebars turned out good as they hinge with the pantls above.
I couldn't really find any other use for little R2 and he looks quite good
as a computer access dome!
thanks,
ZaC Soden
