A couple quick pics of the hangar truck  build in progress  --


        For towing  and servicing   :



                  [ATTACH=full]79042[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]79043[/ATTACH]


     direct drive motor for each wheel  ( wheel is rotor )


             short rectangular bay houses batteries and larger section will house mechanics to raise the diamond-deck platform   ( essentially a hydraulic tripod scissor   --   operable  , of course  8)  )


        Need to build the two ,  wheeled platforms that the Giraffe's feet will sit on .




  

                  Walk (Giraffe) into airlock -  stepping onto dollies .

                                                                                     Pressurize airlock to hanger pressure .

                     Open airlock .

                                            Tow'd to parking spot to be serviced  by bridge crane and ground crew   .....



 

        I plan on building the bridge-crane's service head and trolly  and fading the rest away via clear acrylic structural support  .

                 The service head will contain the rig for removing and replacing the MoonScreen
