Judicator V1
"Interdiction by surrogate."
For the air assault challenge. I mirrored the squad. Sorry about that. Also, the gyro isn't perfect, and may shake sometimes. I ripped it straight from Orbitas, and put it inside of this drone.
iOS nudging is neat, too. I'm glad that the devs added it.
Now for some controls:
- Pitch and Roll to move.
- Yaw for Yaw
- Throttle for altitude (around 60% for hovering.)
- VTOL for engine orientation (45 - degree rotation.)
- Trim for gun orientation.
Tips:
- Movement is slow. To go forward (or backwards) fast, use the VTOL slider.
- This vehicle is equipped with REFLEX missiles! They are short range (1.2mi), but lock instantly!
- Hovering occurs around 55-58% throttle.
The Judicator is an autonomous aircraft that specializes in delivering ground-based assault teams to hard-to-reach locations. When its soldiers have disembarked, the drone can become airborne, and serve as air support for its respective assault team. Armed with a pulse shotgun, rapid-fire rocket pods, and REFLEX missiles, the Judicator boasts a moderate, yet advanced arsenal. It is capable of light convoy assault, and can defend itself against other aircraft. Then, after the assault mission has been completed, the Judicator can autonomously move to the assault team's extraction location, and provide the team with a swift extraction.

@spefyjerbf Thank you! glad to see talented builders like you are still around!
@jlewisifer No worries! The challenge was fun, regardless of reward. It’s good to see you back!
And... 1 year later. You definitely have the first place entrant here! My apologies for taking so long to close this out. Stepped away from the game for a long time. Will upvote accordingly.
Would look great as a heli, ima slap a swashplate onto it and see what happens
@jlewisifer Thanks, your challenges are always unique, and I like putting my futuristic spin on them!
Very cool. Excited to check it out when I get back to my computer.
Maybe you should make a v2?
This thing looks insane! Beautiful build!
Awesome!
This is Awesome!
more weapons pls
@destroyerP I have an iPhone, yes. But I mostly play SP on my PC.
Hooman!
Wait a second, you are an iOS user?! I didn’t know that.
@Fjorge Haha
When I first glanced at the description, I thought I read "Sorry for the assault charges" and I was like what the heck.
