Scifi/Engineless VTOL Basic Chassis Example Type-II

In 1 collection by jerryfanfan
Basic Chassis Examples

Description
A different chassis for you to build your own scifi/antigravity vehicles.

This configuration is suitable for smaller vehicles. Potential vehicle ideas for this chassis:
Star Wars TIE Fighter
Star Wars A Wing
Star Wars Pod Racers(certain ones, not all of them)
Star Trek Shuttles

This type balances on two tilting "suspension pushers", and is kept stable by phantom forces from pivots

It takes up less space than the other configuration, with the downside of being more sensitive to unbalanced weight distribution, as well as being less stable on a large multiplayer server. Note, you should try to give each pivot head two blocks of travel room in its directions of travel.

Pivots arrangement is done by reverse engineering:

Put a lot of mass so it sinks,

or if you know what you are doing, covert this to use velocity pivots so you can rotate the wheel thrusters downwards to give you some downward force.

how do you get it to go under water?

ok, thank you!

As in making it lift containers etc? either add more wheels and pushers or make the ship heavier, as the strength of the wheels is proportional to vehicle mass. 10,000 mass units in the vehicle should let it lift containers comfortably.

great Vehicle! I was wondering if there is anyway to make it more powerful?

If it's gonna use wheels, it wouldn't really need the propeller any more.
In any case, you can try this pivot stabilized helicopter:
