Description
Warning: heli-type controls, no braking thrusters!
Also oxygen in atmosphere required to breathe inside!

Another minimalistic ship, this time for planets. Mostly for surveying near base and searching for ores with large detector. Battery-powered only, 1 small cargo container with connector and 1 turret against wolves.

Better use with "Heavy tinted and clear glass" mod by The Witch, since vanilla glass textures spoils it's design pretty much.

Hint: if you don't like "no braking thruster" schematic, but want to keep it's aestethics, you can simply revert one of the forward thrusters

Looks amazing and is so much fun to fly.

Если я подпишусь на него, добавится ли он в EEM?

Very nice ship! I took the freedom to meddle around with it a little, adding a breaking thruster, adding more AP turrets and removing several armor blocks and shorten it a little. Has very nice flying properties and is a good idea for a cheap, light scout in Survival.

Thank you for it!

P.S.: the remoddel will be in my workshop. Sorry for selfadvertising.

I like this ship. It's simple and kinda cute. Any chance we could get a view of the bottomside and a view from jnside the cockpit? Thank you kindly :)

Just have it on a button, toggle group on/off.

I think it would be better to add backward thrusters and then group them up, so you can turn them off when you glide rather than can't stopping at all

Yeah, read instructions first :P
That was intentional making it without braking thrusters, I like how it glide after some acceleration, kinda relaxing :)

I love this, after crashing it into various mountains three or four times I actually read the description, all accident investigation findings indicate pilot error rather than equipment failure.
