Rebel Shuttle

By Nate McKenna


"Rebel" and "Scum": two words strongly linked. Here's a recently assembled Alliance Lambda shuttle, fittingly bedecked in scum. Maintenance? Heh, that's for the other guy. The big pheonix marking is after the old Lucas Arts X-Wing game. It has LED flashing engine lights and LED blinking navigation lights, all run by a 4060 CMOS device and powered by 2 NiMH 9Vs. The electronics are all self contained and repairable. Having built two Ertl Tyderiums, I can say that this scummed out version is way more fun.
