Thanks! Actually, I used almost every blue Technic beam I own! But having a
ton of 1x5 and 1x6 gray liftarms made it possible.

The motorization was quite easy, and is a neat feature if your moonbase is
in the middle of a big layout. You can sit back and remotely operate things,
which is a lot of fun!
Even if you didn't have R/C control, you could still run wires out of the
base and under the table.
I had a 4th output on my R/C receiver and I contemplated making a motorized
satellite dish, but didn't have time to finish before the TexLUG layout.

Well, I don't know about more Space MOC from me :-) But we'll see...
