SG Mobile Rotary Miner

Description
Small Grid Mobile Rotary Miner. Digs and hauls about 3.5 million KG of ice (with 10x inventory, don't know what it holds with lower settings). 8 large cargo containers, 2 medium cargo containers, 8 drills. Made to fire up and be left to run on its own, takes about 10 minutes to fill itself up. Can drill about 40 meters deep, I estimate.

I have moved the ejectors to the landing legs.
Added merge blocks to the drill assembly so it can be locked during flight.
Increased forward and reverse thrust.
Reduced excess landing leg height.
Wrote toolbar button explanations into the cockpit LCDs.

Been a while since I checked this, sorry man. For the most part, all the controls are set up to be sequential, based on first to last from left to right, on each toolbar. Basically, you extend the legs to land, of course, then unlock the merges, start the drills, start the rotor, and then (always verify that the pistons are set to the right speed) reverse the pistons. Once the descent is complete, you can either manually control the pistons retraction speed, or you can use the decrease/increase velocity controls to retract the drill pistons. Once the pistons are all the way up, turn the drills, and slow the rotor down to a stop when the merges are lined up, then merge, unlock landing gear, and fly home.
