Building a better LEGO A-wing

It's been a long time since LEGO has given us a proper rendition of the classic A-wing starfighter. As a big fan of this ship, I wanted a model that balanced screen accuracy with playability. By combining the best elements of the official LEGO A-Wings, I think I've done that. This is just the first video in a series in which I'll be building every starfighter from the Rebel Alliance fleet. Stay tuned for more! You can find instructions for my A-wing here: https://reb.li/m/243894 My design was influenced by the Rebrickable user ron_mcphatty, who does great work. You should definitely check them out if you're looking for mods to official sets. Also, modelermagic.com was a great resource as I was looking for screen accurate reference material.
