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.
