[Note: This project can also be found on my Google Drive mirror: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1iCgBB5Xsk8v_-_luvzETnoaZljmTTqaA?usp=share_link ] This is the 22nd expansion parts kit meant to complement my original Star Trek Constitution Class Parts Kit (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3652210), adding parts to support several freighter, transport, and other non-combatant ships from the old FASA Star Trek role playing and combat board game. All parts are meant to be cross-compatible between parts kits. Update 2023-04-13: As with the other kits that use derivative parts from my original Constitution and Miranda class kits, these designs have also been refit with the recently updated saucer, impulse, and nacelle details. The older version of this kit can be found on this Google Drive archive. See my Cults3d Profile for the full list of parts kits I've released so far. Each of these kits includes combined ships and ship parts STL files, along with blender source files used to create them. Ship files should be ready to print. Part files are provided so you can import into your 3d modelling software of choice to combine and modify to easily create your own ship designs. All parts are meant to be cross-compatible between kits. Included Ships This kit includes the following ships: Aakenn class freighter A small TOS-era freighter. The kit includes an alternate version featuring a Motion Picture era nacelle. Cochrane class colonial transport A large TOS-era transport. The kit includes an alternate version featuring a Motion Picture era nacelle. Laweya class freighter This large freighter, capable of landing on a planet's surface, was featured in the relatively rare first edition Federation Ship Recognition Manual, but did not make it into the more common second edition. However, it has remained well-documented online. Liberty class freighter The Liberty class is a large freighter that bears some striking hull similarities to Nell from Battle Beyond the Stars. Lotus Flower class neutronic fuel carrier The Lotus Flower is the FASA Trek version of the Kobayashi Maru, a fuel carrier that has an inconvenient habit of striking gravitic mines in the Neutral Zone. See the notes on scaling in this document for a discussion on issues related to this model's intended size. The kit includes an alternate version featuring an Original Series era nacelle. Sunshine class liner The Sunshine is meant to be a large passenger liner. It's a nearly forgotten design, even from the relatively obscure standpoint of FASA Trek. The ship was originally included in the first edition Federation Ship Recognition Manual, but was not included in the second edition. However, unlike similar first edition only ships like the Laweya, it is not included on the two biggest fan sites (https://ststcsolda.space/ and http://fasaststcs.com/), so it's not easy to find information about it via search engine. It is included in the fan-made Federation Ship Recognition Manual II, however. Zip Files Zip files are included in the following google drive locations: Fed-noncombat1v2-ship-stls.zip - Contains the combined, ready to print, ship files. Fed-noncombat1v2-parts-stls.zip - Contains all of the individual part STL files used to create the combined ship files. Fed-noncombat1v2-blender-files.zip - Contains the source blender files used to generate the parts, as well as files with the parts assembled as used to generate the combined ship files.
