At this point Chris and I had a few conversations about the thruster system in SC and how to optimally do that with this design. What we decided on was having 12 maneuvering thrusters all-together (what’s in the doc), with 2 of them being mounted on the front and articu- lated on one axis. These two front mounted thrusters would control yaw (side movement) as well retro thrust for breaking/reverse. The interior cabin was redrawn to include a large cargo hold and a more compact living quarters for the single pilot. 8
