The Eclipse Hornet is a race bike designed to compete in the Planetary Grand Prix. It’s capable of flying in atmosphere or space, though it’s recommended you wear the X-1 flight suit. Due to the success of the hornets performance during races and the large amount of requests, Eclipse has decided to start mass production for public use. This vehicle will make a great addition to your collection if you’re a speed demon or thrill seeker.

I tried making flight pants lmao, the thighs r so big bc it’s meant to be compressed pants like real fighter pilots use in real life to stop all the blood from rushing to their toes
@MrACEpilot
@Baldeagle086
Oh is it?
I don't really care about replica or not as long it goes (or flies) fine and it have decent aesthetics.
Not everyone like futury stuff ig. There is a big replica community on here
@KLM_747
This might be one of the least upvoted featured builds ever.
Getting some crazy Destiny sparrow vibes
To land I activate 8, break until u r going 50 then decrease the throttle to like 10% @donald347
Fun and interesting challenge to land. Or is there a vtol system I'm missing? (Not sarcasm- I like it.)
@Baldeagle086 oh nice
Sorry lol I lost interest in it and gave the project to @yamayamathemountain
@Reeeeeeeeeeee45
What happened to the starship from 4 or 5 months ago? I was excited man!
Either way, excellent build.
Yes dude @Shippy456
Whoops, didn’t know, but that’s okay... @Baldeagle086
Nope lol I know next to nothing about home world. @LordGardevoirX
Amazing
Hrm... Homeworld-inspired speeder bike? 👏 awesome 👏
@Baldeagle086 .....huh...yeah, like the salt flats
True, kinda like the salt flats.
@Mixx
@Baldeagle086 ok fair enough
And as for why over water
Let's say you're exploring a planet with no visible land, just water..... also cuz in SP the water is the only place where you can really put the throttle down on a hover racer
Well why would you be driving over water lol, the only things that would be built as a hover vehicle in my universe are a planetary exploration vehicle, a fancy sports or luxury car to flex, or a experimental weapons vehicle. Boats would be obsolete since you have giant spaceships, and trains might still be around. But a hover car is fuel inefficient, you have to have enough power to keep all that weight suspended, and to make it accelerate and decelerate, with wheeled vehicles you only need power for acceleration.
@Mixx
So @Baldeagle086 ....
You say true hover is impractical huh....useless huh..... well I'd like to see your wheeeels slash over the water at 300+kmh
And if you wanna argue that its difficult....hehe... look at most of my creations, especially my bikes.....boi
Also I'm about half way dont with making this thing hover
PS. The gyro was unstable cuz the creation is waaaayyyyyy tooo light for jow strong the gyro is
@Mixx idk i was debating on making a hover bike, but my head cannon is that hover vehicles are possible, but rare and only for the wealthy since hovering instead of using wheels is impractical. most my ground based vehicles will have wheels, but this build is pretty much supposed to be a micro spaceship lol.
@Mixx it's not meant to hover. It's kinda like jetski racing except instead of water it's the sky and space. And if i wanted it to hover i would have just used xml wheels lol since it's more reliable.
Dang, this is sexy
It's a real shame that it only flies and doesn't hover
Could be fixed so easily by changing the input of the main lifting thruster to (Throttle - AltitudeAgl/10) and adding a zero to the engine power while reducing the engine input to 0.1 for quicker response.
But that's my opinion.
(EDIT) it uses wings......WINGS!!!!! MY LIFE IS A MEANINGLESS LIE! IM REBUILDING THIS TO HOVER.
Looks like a Golden Age Sparrow in Destiny 1/2. You even have the Guardian piloting it.
