Seven Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 It's hard to believe that those skinny little wings can hold the stress of those huge boosters, especially placed that far out on the wings. And why would they put thrust vectoring flaps on a booster... to spin the fighter out of control?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eugimon Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 Eh, I don't think it would be a problem for the wings to support that weight, after all the SV-51 does become an ornithopter in battroid mode so I would imagine those wings to be much stronger than they appear. Interesting design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That picture doesn't show it, but the wings lock into a different, closer in position when the boosters are actually in use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
