nah, the original has a static tail with large vertical fins, but a couple
factors (mainly a very limited supply of Yellow, and the model's stubborn
refusal to not tilt back onto it's tail anyway) made me redesign the tail to
do double-duty as landing gear

The color pick of yellow and grey is a good choice too.

Good job!
