There's no crab claw stuff. Basically, there are two poses, but it's really just for... You've got a landed pose and a flight pose, really. So there's no mystery behind it. It's just pure mechanics. The better-looking pose is when it's in the flight mode. So you get a sort of break of the silhouette, like the sort of dog leg, essentially. But when you put that on a surface, then suddenly you've got to have massive landing gear at the back. It's really tall. It just looks really geeky and ungainly.

So it just made sense to just solve those two problems by just having the pivot of the arms.
