      Warp?
      Sure you didn't mean a real Pratt & Whitney Wasp engine? 😉

        Nope, I'm talkin' "We need warp drive now Scotty or we're all dead"

          Nah, just add a Flux Capacitor, why warp speed if you have time travel.

            Yeah, I'd go for that, if I could install it in one of my oldies (that dang Delorean is just not my style 😆 )

                I don't know if Pete got the word that the speed of light may have been exceeded by some overclocking Neutrinos. Warp drive may not be off the table.

                            The new, more hi-poly fuselage with inner frame, and start making a cockpit (the japanese pilot was taken from 3dwarehouse for breadboarding).

                                Hi to all!
                                I have not much time these days, but i've done a pair of things.
                                New elevator (in comparsion with the old one). Thanks to Fredo6's Curviloft, very useful plugin!compare2.png
                                I also added to the rotation axis of the elevator, on a separate layer, hmmm, let's call it the guideface.
                                guideface.png
                                It is handy to rotate. I'll do the same thing with all the other moving parts.
                                Animation of how it works 😄
                                elevator.gif
                                The frame is not ready yet, I want to add some details to it.

                                      I left this model alone for some time. But a couple of weeks ago, I thought about it and decided that we should continue. So, here we go: the new engine (codename R 9.3) 😄
                                      There is so much things to do.
