Atmospheric Vertical Miner

Description
Hi all, this is my first try at vertical miner for planets.

This vanilla miner has the following:
- 6 batteries giving 1 hour of mining time
- 5 large atmo. thrusters to lift itself vertically up with cargo load up to 2 times its own self weight
- 6 small atmo. thrusters for each side
- 4 medium cargo containers (starts empty)
- 4 gyros
- 9 drills
- 44 sorters and ejectors to dump close to 6000kg of rock per second
- 2 connectors (left and right of cockpit)
- 1 cockpit with air vent set to depressurise
- some space around cockpit for extension, e.g. adding an oxygen generator.

That pretty much describes it all.
Please try it out, comment and most important: have fun with it!
