I have now produced some 3D models to show how the drive components will link up to the engine and fan.

| To help me understand what the plans where on about I decided to make some exact 3D digital models of the viper by following the plans | |
| The models clearly show how the basic cockpit is constructed. | |

| These 3D models are extreemly usefull to help figure out how to solve problems witout wasting expensive material. I will be producing more models as the build goes on. | |
