Inside the Class-F Shuttlecraft

[@mitchg7809]

If I had a food replicator next to the toilet I’d never leave the house.

You mean, youd never leave the toilet ^^

[@bobcarn]

That was an awesome reconstruction of the shuttlecraft! It's definitely a good addition to your portfolio! I was thoroughly delighted with seeing each of the panels explained. Especially that rear compartment with the basic necessities such as a commode and food/supplies storage. We never saw on the show before, but it makes sense the shuttlecraft should have something like that.

[@tonysworkbench6070]

Absolutely brilliant work! I hope that Round 2 references this when they release the interior kit to their shuttlecraft model. Yours is the gold standard reference for original series sets!

[@tonydicker8961]

Fantastic work, I am making a model kit of this shuttle with full interior so it is great to use as a reference with the lights and fine detail.

[@amesolaire]

Fantastic work! Love everything about it! The modelling, the texturing, the attention to detail... amazing!

[@Ark1j]

It is....most triumphant.

[@Valelacerte]

Beautiful work. Such faithful reproduction and attention to detail. I had no idea that half these little access panels existed or what they were for. I bet the original designers and set construction people would be hugely excited and honoured with your work. You should send them a link.

A pretty faithful recreation of an iconic set, in an even iconic series. Matt Jefferies would be proud of your vigilance in representing his designs. As for whether the decision to download or not is irrelevant, just seeing this short recreation is good enough for me. Aside from that, I own Eaglemoss' diecast version. Great work!

hahaha, I was thinking a lot of the potty area, had issues. Who has a fold way toilet? Do they beam the crap out into space, or just vaporize it?? There has never been pluming that folds away. There no privacy at all? No the food should of been placed in the main cabin is my thoughts.

[@delphicdescant]

The chonky switch noises are wonderful.

[@Daniel-Strain]

Absolutely glorious!

[@Lethgar_Smith]

Fascinating. I'd be interested in seeing just how difficult it is to stuff that interior into the exterior model.

[@Terminus_El_Camino]

It's like a Tardis - bigger on the inside than the outside.

[@jerobriggs6861]

Basically it is bigger inside if you actually compare the exterior to the interior, but it is only slightly bigger on the inside, and a bit more believable if you don't look at the exterior too closely than the Jupiter 2 from the original Lost in Space. Now that ship was more like the TARDIS from Doctor Who.

[@dellper1]

I love your attention to detail.

[@Tensquaremetreworkshop]

Wow, a chart recorder- how 1950s! Such stuff dates so quickly- forecasters never get the future even close...

[@nkjellman]

Very neat man. I sure hope that you continue your work on this. It would be cool to see this evolve into something like a TOS version of Stage 9. Any chance you will release your work in a demo soon? I would love to play this project, along with your Refit Enterprise and Enterprise A.

[@maximiliangoth9278]

He changed his discriptions that it will never be downloadable...(maybe because of the stage 9 incident with cbs) it's such a shame, would love to get my hands on it I'd even pay for it

I'd make that silver square on the floor in the aft compartment some kind of hatch. You could go back there and get a spacesuit and Eva without depressurizeing the cabin.

Awesome work unbelievable that’s beautiful I too love Star Trek I myself build prop weapons if I may say one thing since Star Trek is based off the navy (I know in the TOS episode tomorrow is yesterday Kirk mentions that they are the United earth probe Space agency) it’s my understanding that that would be called the head not the commode me being in the military myself in the army we actually called it the latrine but I know that the Navy calls that the head no criticism just pointing that out thank you once again for such an awesome display I’m looking at some of your other work it is beautiful you are magnificent sir sincerely Ron

Starz is awesome, dude. Subway Terror is my favorite song.

[@gsr4535]

Excellent! 👍 But remember in the "Galileo 7", doesn't McCoy and another crewman go outside from the rear compartment, suggesting a second exit or was I seeing things?

[@DVersiga1984]

GSR they don’t go outside from the rear compartment. They come and go from it, removing cargo from the compartment. There was only ever one entrance/exit; the one near the pilot seat.

[@Astrophysicophile-eb4wt]

@DVersiga1984 - Great job! I love it! @gsr4535, @DVersiga1984, when McCoy and the other crewman - Yeoman Mears, actually - came back to the forward compartment from the aft compartment for the second time in their effort to lighten the shuttlecraft's load, the doctor did inform Spock that something was happening outside. I used to think that McCoy did go outside, and after seeing the open roof of the wrecked second Shuttlecraft Galileo in PRO: "All the World's a Stage," I then thought that the doctor and yeoman were now lightening the ship through a hatch in the roof of the aft compartment (above the hand sink and commode?), in order to avoid disturbing Scott and Spock's repair efforts in the forward compartment. However, after rewatching "The Galileo Seven," I noticed Mears wearing her tricorder over her shoulder during the unloading effort, and I did not hear the sound of a roof hatch closing when the doctor and yeoman left the aft compartment for the second time. So, I now think that while Mears and McCoy were uninstalling equipment in the aft compartment, the yeoman was using her tricorder to monitor for anything happening outside, and when she did find something, she notified the doctor.

[@Astrophysicophile-eb4wt]

@DVersiga1984 - I really love the logical features you added to the portside of the aft compartment, but while rewatching the episode, I was reminded that the dialogue implied that the aft compartment was actually the "mid" compartment. When various crewmembers were in the aft compartment, or standing at the hatchway to it, they referred to a further "aft" compartment. After Scott and Spock frightened off attacking Taurus II anthropoids by going to the aft compartment to electrify the ship's exterior, and McCoy joined them there, the science officer requested his surviving crew to check the "aft" compartment for anything to unload, causing Mr. Boma to remark that Mr. Gaetano's body was back "there" (and argue with his commander that it would not be left behind without a burial). So, I guess the aft compartment of the dialogue was behind the environmental suit locker and food slot, and during the lightening of the shuttlecraft, these features as well as emergency supplies locker, hand sink, and commode were uninstalled and unloaded, and their unloading allowed access to that after compartment. Of course, a third compartment big enough for two live bodies and one dead body would mean that the interior of the shuttlecraft had to be even longer than the exterior. I guess the ship's inertial dampening system not only decreases inertial mass of the ship's contents but also the physical size of those contents, as the TARDIS does, as others have mentioned.🙂

That would be pretty cool having a toilet right next to the food dispenser like that! Your vid too is pretty awesome!

[@DVersiga1984]

Freedoms Torch a lot of people comment that it’s gross to have the food dispenser right next to the toilet, but a) that was the only spot we didn’t see on screen so they both had to go there and b) The toilet stows away and I’m sure there’s some kind of sterile field involved so it’s not like your food is gonna get contaminated with poo

Nice video and can I just toss a couple of technical questions into the playpen?- 1- What's the maximum speed of the shuttlecraft?... 2- How long does its oxygen supply last? 3- just to digress slightly, are there any computer games or simulations around that let us walk around (explore) the inside of various film and TV spaceships/ space stations/ space colonies etc?..I've searched on Steam but have drawn a blank.

Love seeing the "unseen" areas, is the commode supposed to be by the food replicator? like is that in the tech manuals? or was that a decision you made yourself?

[@zykez3501]

Due the fact the TOS-era used synthesizers (from bean to steak, some kind of starting-material) only digitalized with food-cards, the commode-waste will directly filtered in space after use and never reused in some recycling-way. I think the original-concept holds something like that (equipment for shuttle-longrun uses, even warp-capability was often referred) so it makes sense to build such installments. there were wall-boxes (tech-equipment?) and other stuff in the early concept draws (later jeffrey/j-class shuttle/runabout/scout).
