    I was tasked by my brother to build something outrageous to attack POI's. Bit of overkill I think. Dual layers of hardened steel blocks on all sides and plenty of armaments and lots of space inside to add more stuff.

    Introducing, Explorer X7.

    I initially cobbled this HV together because I desperately needed a vessel relatively early game with an enclosed cabin to survive the new weather patterns - Hail on Ningues, at just the wrong time, suuuuuucks. But I find myself increasingly turning to it because it is very effective.

    Frankly, not even as cheap as I would like, but it is a solid design. Twin gatling cannons, plenty of storage and oxygen, its fast, turns well, and the cabin has a ventilator. The front end is missing a few blocks so you can install a harvester if needs be(since we can no longer deforest *cough* I mean clear a path through trees using minguns or gatling cannons.)

    Enjoy!

    One of the first bps I've shared. 5.x and 6.0 friendly. It is my mining HV that uses a 2/4 configuration with a closed cockpit. No cargo boxes except the harvester box and no mobile constructor. More info on steam about it. I usually through 3 or 4 cargo boxes and a mobile constructor if I am running around on a new planet or moon just in case I need them for any reason. Feels like you're driving a race car when driving in first person.

    Here's my land exploration and assault hovercraft. Has every weapon to max amount allowed on a hovercraft, including a harvester and a radar. Originally tried to make it look like an ocean going warship, but ended up looking a good bit different. Enclosed and ventilated cabin with plenty of oxygen storage. Cargo bays, ammo boxes, fridges, constructor, oxygen and armor station all in cabin also. 58 RCS, so turning and rotation is fairly good.
    Currently calling it the landshark, but not really happy with that name, may come up with a better one.

    Rebuilt the landshark shown above. It was built backwards from starter block originally. Now it's bigger, redder, meaner, and mining-er. But still can be backwards, with seats facing both ways, but the guns are pointing the right way this time :D

    Yaw rate kinda slow though, I feel RCS is really underpowered for heavy HV's - this has 71 of them and still barely 1.5 degree yaw.

    Tired of the bike? Why don't you grab one of these instead?

    POLARIS SPACE INDUSTRIES PH-1A and PH-1B 'AINO' scout hover vessel

    20170614135201_1.jpg

    Comes in open cockpit 'A' variant and closed cockpit 'B' variant for more dangerous environments. Unlockable at lvl3! So nothing fancy, just a cargo box - but these can easily be upgraded with lights, gatling guns etc. Have fun exploring the planets bike-free!

    Hey guys and gals. I just completed my first raiding HV (my second HV ever). Thank you to those who answered questions for me in regards to HV builds.

    Diablo Gato is a 6.0 POI raiding HV.

    Diablo Gato (Cat Devil in spanish, but I like to say Devil Cat) is a military inspired hover tank. The style is popular in sci-fi with the 4 pods at the 4 corners with a turret mounted top. This is my first attempt at a POI raiding HV so I went conservative with the style.

    Features Include:

    • Full armament of weaponry (see the last picture for weapon breakout, and build cost)
    • Separate Light switches for head lights and side lights
    • 3 Doors to help maintain a pressurized cabin under fire. To open all doors easily, hit 'P' and select the "Doors" option on the right.
    • O2 Station
    • Ventilator
    • (2) Cargo containers
    • (6) ammo containers
    • Pilots seat and (4) passenger seats for those who raid with friends.
    • Thruster and light switches so you can leave the HV running outside while conserving minimal fuel while you raid a POI inside.
    • (2) Cargo constructors to help with field repairs.

    @shiva.shandra Not a bad first post :) Awesome looking HV's - very cool. Loving that the colour scheme matches the terrain...
