This and the S-150 Pavo are my two favorites to use. The external shape of this ship inspired the build on my Chameleon Stealth Recon Craft. Also, your Helios weapon series is awesome and easy to incorporate onto anything.

I can't remember, but no more than a few small cargos. It's not meant to carry lots of stuff, it doesn't have a refinery or assembler anyways.

How much cargo it got?

Built this in multiplayer dedicated, recreating the gatling guns. Picked one side first and added conveyors and a connector so I could resupply ice without connecting to my base. Could probably change one of the conveyors on the side to make a space dock for miners. The basic refinery is good but a full sized would be nice to refine uranium to fuel the ship without hitting up a dock.

Updated to include Deco DLC blocks and more

Came across this while looking for an attack ship, saw the 9 gats on each side and thought I'ed play with it a little.

Let it rip apart a R.U.S.T freighter, I couldn't take the ship because it kicked on all thrusters and hit max speed once the turrets were gone. so I picked it apart in short order.

Mayday crashed green ship. picked off the 2-3 turrets with no issue.

SPRT asteroid base: 2 gat turrets, 2 rocket turrets showed a flaw, Pilot placing. I was ejected from the ship all together as the turrets too out the cockpit, think it was just the blocks under the seat, once the seat lost power they actually left me alone, ship and all. There's apparently still a bug in the SE targeting code that targets the player first.

I think I would have been dead if I were not in creative. Think this is an issue with all pilot forward designs though.

Love the ship overall and the 'space to shore' functionality is nice

Hey, just a little bit of feedback for you with this ship. I love it so far. my only suggestion is that you add a 2nd O2/H2 generator, as it takes a very long time to refill the 2 hydrogen tanks with ice.

I would use the up-thrusters up to like 7 km, when the atmo thrusters don't work anymore and then turn upwards and use the forward thrusters. I included a thrust override option for the forward thrusters in the toolbar, so you don't have to hold W all the time.

Yeah I can live without it. Finally finished the ship and it looks great. Love the thruster layout. It's quite easy on the hydrogen usage. Question: when leaving a planet, whats the optimal way with this ship? A lot of Up thrust, so I assume use Up the whole way to space?

I think they are somewhere in the back, but they are not used anyways. I just put them in incase somebody wanted to install a script on it.

I am projecting this now and i am missing a programmable block somewhere? I have 1, but I guess there are 2? Can you let me know where they are?

Ah thanks, will try that out.

The projectors don't project subgrids sadly. You could manually build them like in the picture, paste the ship in creative, detach and blueprint the gatlings and then project them separately, or simply switch out the rotor for a conveyor and the guns for a rocket launcher.

Sadly the guns didn't come when I built it from the projector. Is there a easy way to make something like them?

oh i wish i coud build ships so good...
great job!

@DartTimeTime They don't serve any purpose besides beeing the conveyor link between the rotor and the gatling guns. Since the gatling guns are already pretty far out to the side, I used the generators, because they take up less space than any other possible connection.

@Enark are u using projectors? They don't project subgrids I think. The rotors are definitely not necessary, you could switch them out for rocket launchers or something else if you want.

elegant af

Nice clean design.

Thanks! Great ship!

Why is there an o2/h2 gen on the gattling gun?

Reminds me of a Runabout from Star Trek. I like it.

What about the rotors under the wheels on the side? Rotor seems to be breaking my ship. It didn't build the 2x9 gatling guns and I can't place anything in the space where they'd go. Can I just remove the rotors?

just decoration

what are the wheels for?

I like how it really looks like an exploration ship with the large front window and the different thruster types. Beautiful ship!

It's the inverted corner blast door

What is the block that the interior turrets are mounted to above the cockpit?

There are only two on the bottom underneath the cockpit

any connectors on it for bringing a small grid ship along?

Super neat mate!

Nicely done

Man, this cockpit type is pretty popular, isn't it?

Very cool, looks like a great survival ship! When I see CIC, however, I only think of Combat Information Center.

Great build, love the way you added the gatling guns.
