However, it's so far just a quick conversion of our old FSDS1/CFS2 Stringbag, so it needs quite a bit of work until it's up to par.
We'll finish her as soon as the other work in progress stuff is out (Yes, still working on the Lanc)
....and excuse the shameless self-promo ;D

Oooh yes, the Lanc... Can we have a little update on it soon please? And an estimated release date? :) It is the CFS3 project i've been looking forward to most.

I have the Stringbag now. And is quite satisfactory. I look forward to seeing the final version. ;)
