Hover Glider

The Hover Glider is a hovercraft which uses gravity cubes, sensors, and thruster override to glide above the ground. The ship hovers about 5 meters above the ground and is armed with two gatling guns. To change the height at which the craft hovers adjust the sensor fields or the thruster override (override adjustment is easiest for small changes 3-7 meters). The sabilizer pods on each side of the cockpit are attached via rotors so they are not under the pilot's control while flying.

This craft is designed for both racing and ground combat competions.

In combat the four large thrusters are often the first targets if three are destroyed the craft becomes unflyable. The second most common target is often the gravity cubes located at the four corners of the craft, destroying two on any one side will make the craft dificult to controle. If they are all destroyed the craft will fly up into space.
Finaly there are the stablizer pods located on each side of the cockpit if these are destroyed the ship may bounce up and down smashing itself into whatever surface it is flying over.

Personally I have the most fun flying this craft with inertal dampeners off so that tilting and rolling the craft can be used to maneuver.

To fly simply place the craft level and close to a station with 1g of gravity and it should do the rest.

No Modes were used to make this craft.
It is not set up for survival(No conveyors or containers installed)

Most of the images are of Hover Glider 2. (It is the exact same thing just with a couple more slopes to smooth some edges.) I have uploaded that blueprint as well.
