Might be interesting to upscale. Bonus points to make the shock absorber on the landing plate functional with internal spring (like Q model did on various kits). If only I had a 3D printer....

Hey Les - long time.. good to see you still around. ( been ages since the last Kopernik launch I was at ).
Just saw you post and had to yell... ( and ps: to keep semi on topic, I know a guy with a 3d printer )
