I had the same issue with the Yoda blink as other members. Just feels too slow to me and looks a bit unnatural. May be better, in my opinion, if it was just left as it is.
All the other animations you've done are seamless though. Honestly fantastic!

I was wondering how you'd work changing the Tydirium to a freighter when it's named as a shuttle twice in dialogue, but I realised that'd be a relatively easy cut:
Madine: We have stolen a small Imperial [snip] cargo ship. [snip] Using a secret Imperial code, a strike team will land on the moon and deactivate the shield generator.
I suspect cutting Piett's reference might be a little harder. He says it very fast, and if you just cut the word "shuttle", it's less clear what Tydirium refers to, given it's the only instance of the name in the film.
I don't see any problem with it still being referred to as a shuttle, regardless of whether the model changes. It'd just be a different class of shuttle, I thought, so that the same model isn't reused throughout the saga, and Vader's shuttle doesn't turn out to be the same bog standard model used to transport supplies (correct me if I'm wrong). Is there a rule that says shuttles can't transport cargo?
Edit: The kind of shuttle we see taking off in the Dewback scene in ANH is the kind I assumed Ady would be using. It looks cargo-ey.
Anyway, this is ROTJ:R talk :)
