I thought it was worth going for some BIG images now that it's all finished.
With some careful use of JPEG compression, their file size is not too huge
either. I'm impressed with the quality of my new digital camera at the
really close-in shots, the macro mode works really well.

I had my reservations, having not seen too many blue 7s, but I had no
choice! Those blue angled wings at each side of the cabin were the only
non- black/grey/white ones that I had. Red was my preferred choice, but
there are no red 'wings' in my collection :-(

I nearly admitted defeat on these at one point and settled for a 'move with
you own hands' manual system. Glad I persevered though, as the motorised
ones are way more cool! By the way, how did you create the cool videos on
your site? Web cam? I'm jealous!
Cheers,
Neil
