Billy400 Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 Over the last couple years I made an Educraft LUT, Crawler and an Airfix Saturn V. Took AGES! I think I must now be a black belt at origami! When I figure out how to add pic's I'll follow up this topic. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy400 Posted March 13, 2022 Author Share Posted March 13, 2022 Worst bit is that the crawler took a tremendous amount of work, looks awesome but you really cannot see it. I'll try and dig out a photo or two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bertie McBoatface Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 I remember those days well, but I couldn't tell you what LUT stands for. Launch [unknown] Tower? It's an amazing model. Truly well done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeddahbill Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 Great job! The Educraft paper LUT is a real challenge and you did a fantastic job. I hope to finish the 1/96 scale version soon (maybe)...... Cheers, Bill 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Launch [unknown] Tower? Launch Umbilical Tower. The Saturn V LUT had eight umbilical/service arms, which provided access to various levels of the stack, and umbilical connections for stuff like fuel and electrics which were being supplied from the tower during the pre-launch phase. There was also a ninth arm providing access to the Command Module. They all swung free during the last ten seconds of launch. Then the Saturn V did a very alarming yaw manoeuvre during the first few seconds of take-off, designed to move it away from the LUT in case there had been a problem with any of the arms. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
