WMI Chariot Hover Bike Mk. I

Howdy! This ship is survival ready, piston, rotor, and mod-free!

See Change Notes tab for detailed info

Nov. 16, 2015 - Revision 1
Nov. 16, 2015 - Initial Release

The Chariot Hover Bike is a light reconnaissance vehicle designed by Whiplash Military Industries. She is our first speeder that is rated for planetary use!

Even though the Chariot is made for short range scouting, she is equipped with four forward-facing gatling guns to shred any infantry (or space spiders!) that may cross her path. Her state-of-the-art status screens give her operator vital information about the ship's systems and status, allowing the user to determine his/her next move accordingly.

The Chariot Hover Bike is the first speeder of its class to sport an automatically adjusting holographic gun reticle! The gun reticle will adjust its offset so that it stays centered on your screen at any speed!

At our expense, WMI has provided our customers with a standard survival load: The ship is fully charged and stocked with oxygen bottles and ammo!

Jump in the seat and use the remote control to fly it!

• Turn the reverse thrust cluster off (number 3 on toolbar) to preserve your forward velocity when flying :D
  
• There are no thrusters on the top side of the bike. You can use this to your advantage by rolling over to lose altitude quickly!
  
• Use your rear and ventral thrusters to break more effectively!
  
• Only use the targeting camera when sniping targets from range. Otherwise, I suggest flying from the cockpit view
  
• Turn off the in-game crosshair and use the one built into the Chariot (you don’t have to but it is really cool!). The reticle is meant to be used from 1st person in the seat NOT the camera!
  
• The Chariot has strong ventral thrust. Be sure to bank into turns for better turn radii!

The only thing that bugs me is that remote controls don't have horizon indicators :/ I'm still happy with how she turned out though :)
I hope y'all enjoy my first planetary creation :)
