I’ll be leaching off that trend that tully started for that “extra” attention.
Anyway, my final build is coming along. I don’t know if I should build the Anaconda class or just cancel it, I’ll put some pictures of it if anyone wants to vote.
Anaconda Class Expedition Vessel
But, this ship is built by Faulcon Delacy, not Gutamaya!
From Gutamaya, with Size.
For the lack of another option, and since I’m a little lazy I used a sub I had of Calvin’s B-232. Don’t ask why I had one, I just wanted something for scale.
Technical Stuff
This is where I get into stuff probably nobody would understand.
I still have the anti-gravity system to work out, it still has it’s issues. One idea I had which might work perfectly on any ship from elite is the directional thrusters. I.E, those little things on the sides that move the ship around.
Yeah, those!
I thought of a way to have them ignite on all occasions they do in elite: turning, trajectorial correction, and gravitational compensation.
It’s a jet engine that’s hinged on up to 4 shocks, which in idle position the exhaust effect isn’t showing through something like a fuselage intake. In 1g’s, it will show through the intake, since the engine will have a weight on it. The thrust scale will be zero, of course because it would remain in the upright position.
If that doesn’t make sense, here are some pictures on a testbed.
Upright Position
Gravitational Compensation
More on the Cutter
I haven’t installed any hardpoint bays, my hope is I will be able to put a few missile racks and countermeasures to keep it spiced up. The hull isn’t completely finished, the bottom remains a little spotless with the exception of the wings having a little detail.
NOW
The most important part to me: The landing gear!
I will be building custom gear for the fabulous Gutamaya styling, and with full suspension as always. The nose gear does have a big staircase, so I’ll probably make those move in a sense.
Another thing to mention here, is the little SRV I’ve been working on. SRV is abbreviation for Surface Recon. Vehicle, and is used for a lot of utilitarian and exploration ships.
So
Because I am leaching off that trend tully started, guess how many parts the Cutter is!
~~Bacoin toss
You’re back!
How’s it coming along?
i switched computers, i can see them now.
@RedstoneAeroAviation I hate that thing, it just looks so incapable of functioning
@BaconEggs Majestic class interdictor
@BaconEggs nope.
@RedstoneAeroAviation the what?
Interdictor pls
@goboygo1 Do you have discord?
i cant see the pics! i really want to but i cant, do you have a steam profile i could view them on?
Drama is never truly gone, you have to live with it digitally and in reality
@Johawks1976 Maybe once it clears out and updates start streaming through like they used to, I may come back. But for the time being I don't plan on doing much afterwards.
Too much drama, WAY too much drama
@BaconEggs can’t say your wrong
@Johawks1976 I said it a few times, once upon posting the Cutter I won't be building anything after. I may pop in for a little comment fun every few months but the sp community is on a full on downfall.
Wait a minute final build?
Make sure to make it bullet proof
Better not cancel it!!!!!!
Yay it’s more than a picture from elite something
