Hah, this was a thing that was discussed during the design. With nautical ships, the "bladed" edge is on the front, while with airplanes it's on the back. Since the lore is that these things emit "heavy" clouds of aether and then basically rocket-swim through them, we took the happy medium and reversed them because it looked cooler. (But also because it's not as much drag as you get from water, a lot closer to air.)

Awesome. My inner physics guy had a look at some parts and said, "let's flip this and that for these reasons. Deck A is printing now, and then it'll be ready for painting and putting the little bits on.

Just had a look at it, and you know, I don't think that'll be an issue? Certainly not for the back rudder. You can keep from gluing them in place to check, but I bet it'll be fine.

That's the next thing I need to consider. Question: if I flip the rudders around so the sharper edge faces forward (for reasons), will that interfere with setting it onto the cloud base?

It's a... lot. Haha. Still have to paint ours!

Printing Hull_A for this at the moment, and all that remains is Deck A and the support base. This is a beast of a print, and I am having a blast doing it!
