That whole midsection isn’t attached to anything – it’s free-floating. 🤦Ī few minutes and a bit of cursing later, the landing gear is mounted and spring-loaded! Now it all makes sense – the landing gear going up pushes the whole mid-section piece backwards, which extends the flap beyond where the engine will be! The LEGO shuttle model measures over 8.5 in.

Something’s one stud off, and of course this entire unit involves a rebuild of the nose section. The LEGO NASA Space Shuttle Discovery (10283) set is part of a series of buildable models for adults, offering an escape from everyday life with display pieces to admire. This is the first real stuff-up that I’ve made. The Hubble Space Telescope A collaboration between NASA and the European Space Agency, Hubble has captured images from over 5,000 galaxies, many as far as 13.2 billion light years away. Once mounted, the landing gear is compressed into place. Add the new Space Shuttle Discovery to your LEGO space collection. Once installed in place, the whole unit slides back and forward by about a centimeter, constrained by a gap in the bricks within the middle of the shuttle.Ĭouple of non-standard pieces are used to build up the front landing gear. The engine protector flap is attached with a couple of grippy pieces that allow it to pivot vertically.
Welcome to bag 8! This one’s all about internal details and the flap that is going to sit under the engines.įirst stage of construction is assembling a body-length unit that’s going to sit over the smooth plate section in the shuttle body, where the black-and-white checked section is visible.
