The Mamba always looked really badass. The triple canopy was a bit of a stretch, but it was the right balance of realism and fantasy. I never had one but had friends who did.
I can see the rotors being annoying to play with, but surely that's going to apply to any toy helicopter? This works better as a sub now. I t reminds me a little of that sub in Episode I that alost gets eaten by the big fish. |

I really like this. It could be a flying sub or something. I don't know - the RoC Gunship always looked like it was missing rotors, whereas this doesn't look like it's missing anything. A neat and simple idea and while I don't think I'd ruin a good Mamba to do this, it's a fantastic solution if someone has a Mamba that's already broken.

I think if you mounted the engine pods out a little from the body it'd look more symmetrical. Or use a bigger engine pod. It might be the camera angle, but it looks front heavy.

Ok space ship works no need for wings as lift isn't an issue
Well done when I get a second mamba I plan to customize it and may drop the rotors or at least modify them |

The basic redesign is a good one, But I would also say that it could definitely use larger engines. It feels a nudge underpowered right now.

Nice! I know that you hate painting, but a nice gunmetal, steel, or aluminum paint scheme with touches of black and red detail would make this thin glook like an awesome spacecraft!
Cool either way! : )

I like it a lot, it looks good. I'd have to paint those AGP missles to match though.

Looks sweet, definitely would work for space or underwater.
