I'm having a problem with the port landing gear. It appears the door is getting stuck and not opening.

Otherwise, I love this thing. It's very beautiful!

Massively impressive, so much love and thought in this ship. Graceful compromises between form and function on many many places.

@Uncle Ulty soon we race...
@Burn7 Thank you so much, that's amazing!!! it's always been a dream of mine to have someone else review/showcase my ship!
@negawispshadow this *is* the homologation model - the full race version would have the light cruise engines swapped out for normal thrusters and slightly bigger secondary reactors to compensate. Thanks for checking it out!

Wonder what a "road" - going/production version would look like. Like how group B cars had to have a certain number of production models built in order to compete
