Wall mounted New Detroit pad is a great idea!
I wonder how they came up with the Gladius being 36 meters in length. The Space Shuttle is 122 feet or a little over 37 meters in length. Maybe meters are measured differently in the future?
I think it's great that you're trying this. Your 3D printed ships look amazing!
