[HDI] VTOL Light Dropcraft (atmo)

Description
Manufacturer: [HDI] Hephaestus Defense Industries

Utility: VTOL

Class: Light Dropcraft

Environ: Atmospheric



This is a simple VTOL dropship that is used by [HDI] in atmosphere. Lightly armed and armored, this craft is used for simple and quick insertion/extraction ops. While not designed to deal out a significant amount of damage, it is equipped with 2 separate forward facing autocannons and a top mounted autocannon turret.

Utilizing a simple script to manage the VTOL functions allows the user to operate this craft with ease.

Seating 4 inside the inner bay, this small craft is also able to act as a mobile spawn point with on board survival kit and transfer connector underneath allow easy refuel/restock of ammo.

Should the need to remove the subgrids take priority, simply installing basic vertical, forward, and reverse thrusters will allow this craft to operate with minimal effort as it is a stable frame.

Hey Thanks! yeah they actually do open the canopy but after I uploaded it I realized that the script began interferring with the hinges which really bothered me. I'm currently trying to find a reliable workaround and will upload it when I can.

Pretty neat design, I noticed the buttons at the front dont do anything and theres no way to crawl in and out of the passenger area. IMO the flight seat glass and doors look really cool when theyre all open so maybe having those buttons open them all would be cool to see. Still though its really nice!

You will find somethings may be missing without it. The batteries for example. You can technically use regular ones since the block profile is the same. Additionally some of the conveyoring uses the new blocked small conveyors. Top turret...otherwise most all of the dlc is something that can be substituted
