    @K2K The intake width should be correct, but yes, the real one is more flush as it goes backwards into the fuselage.

    Its very nice, but I think its intake should be a little narrower? It should be flush more or less with the fuselage right?

    I love how you make 'alt configs' so people don't have to spend an hour figuring out how to re configure it.
