My First Planetary Miner

Description
This is a very simple single drill atmospheric miner built from the drop pod.

The blueprint here is to accompany the second part of my survival tutorial series on how to build atmospheric mining ships https://youtu.be/SrDI1_MAokE . Aside from a couple of cleaned up armour blocks this ship is the same as the one at the end of that video for anyone who wanted to get a closer look at things covered in that video.

There's nothing ground breaking in this ship, it can almost fly with a completely full hold (including drill volume), it's relatively cheap and I quite like the simple style that the drop pod leant to it :)

I am noticing that steam is becoming like Youtube in the matter of notifications.
It's a great idea to show beginners how to play SE. This will probably avoid many early quit.
I will adapt to a server. With due credits and mensions of course.

Yep, it'll work on Mars quite well. On titan or Europa you'll need to be careful not to fly too high, since you can enter orbit on atmospheric thrusters alone on both those moons :P

Does this miner work on other planets/moons, paticularly mars?

Thanks guys, glad you've liked it :)

Apologies for missing the comments, Steam's been unsubscribing me from the comments sections of my mods at random so I got no notifications for any of the comments and only noticed it today :(
