    I've added some more parts to this, I also fabricated a hinge joint to connect the top strut to the engine shroud using epoxy putty and a pin, this strut also has a pivot in the middle so the shroud can move up or down and angle in or out. The epoxy hasn't cured yet so I cant move it around for pictures. The other struts are not connected to the shroud.

    I have some ideas for a few more struts fixed to the shrouds with sleeves that slide along the existing white struts as the shrouds are moved. It'll be a poor mans mechalive system, coz I'm certainly poor after buying all the shit for this thing.

    Hi Hakka, is it your thruster cover is way too long for the thruster itself? Assuming both of them will combine.

    The covers do look long compared to the thrusters, but they seem to be that way on the concept art too. Mine might be a touch too long at the bottom, I might change the bottom piece on the thrusters too so they might get slightly longer.
