Kusari - Explorer (NO DLC)

Description

The Kusari is fit for various purposes, capable of flight in both space and atmosphere. Although it started as a cargo-runner, it was since retrofitted into an explorer, however the 6 large cargo containers remain allowing for versatility in its use. Additionally, a Cargo Bay resides in the centre of the ship, if the owner chooses, they may remove the catwalk and house small vehicles to aid in exploration. The ship does not go undefended, with 2 exterior turrets and 1 interior, defending you from meteorites or the local wildlife.

Extra Details

If you are unsure what Timers in the Control Seat Hotbar do, hold ALT (incidentally this also lets you look around the bridge while seated), and this will show the names of each slot. Starboard [Right] Seat is Pilot & Port [Left] is Co-Pilot.

Notably, this ship can fly in relatively high g's, but I can't promise how it flies with full cargo containers, it should just barely be able to fly in 1g with 4 full cargo containers, but with any more than that, I recommend you stay in space.
In terms of hydrogen, if you are flying on planets the fuel consumption will be very high due to the numerous small hydro thrusters on the underside of the ship, but when flying in space you should last for a pretty long time, (20ish minutes of fuel roughly if you did a continuous forward burn).

The cargo bay / hangar was something I just felt like adding from the get-go when making this ship, but in terms of any real purpose, that is up to your imagination. I like the idea of leaving it up to whoever uses the ship to modify it for their own purposes, such as removing the catwalk and putting a small drone or ship, but by default it just serves as a way to access the reactor from the bridge.

I considered adding a jump-drive to this ship, but that would unfortunately upscale the size dramatically, perhaps later down the line I will make a jump-ring.
