Gauntlet Fighter

Hi everyone, I proudly present my UCS version of Bo-Katan's Gauntlet Fighter from the Mandalorian.

 

Turning this ship into a minifig-scale model came with some challenges - especially when it comes to making the wing rotation work properly. The wings can rotate around the fuselage with a technic turntable while the landing configuration has to be achieved by removing the wing and re-attaching it with technic pins.

 

One big issue was the wings drooping due to their mounting very far back. I solved this for the most part with a sort of brick / plate sandwich construction that bends very little. A presentation stand with supports for the wings will make sure that it looks nice and clean in the future.
