  @ian at least there are various sessions so some will be at a more reasonable time! When you sign up you can select which seasions you want to go to. I just selected all of them and if it works with my schedule that day then good, if not then no big deal.

  @flyboy I agree, their use definitely warrants a higher price compared to the power functions motors.

  Something this large is likely best shot outside on a cloudy day as Mike mentioned. You can do it on a sunny day but you will need a reflector to soften the shadows. You can also try turning the lights 180 degrees and reflecting the light back with large white cards or vinyl sheet (just don't melt it) Also if you have an overhead light aimed at the backdrop right behind the shuttle it will kill nearly all of your shadows. You can try a backdrop light that is brighter than your other lights so it overexposes your backdrop so it becomes just pure white. You could also have a look at this video: https://fstoppers.com/commercial/product-photography-tutorial-shows-how-shoot-large-objects-55863 Though it's harder to do what he does without proper studio lighting. Good luck! PS and yes, Photoshop out those wrinkles... that's the best and fastest fix. Pixelmator is great software for this. Use the Clone tool rather than erasing.

  There is very good odds for this contest, given the limited amount of entrants.
