        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.

          Reworked engine (a little bit), and the new prop.

                    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 πŸ˜„
                        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) πŸ˜„
                              There is so much things to do.

                                      Aileron actuators
                                      More smooth tail
