Cepheus Tachyon - Racing Yacht

Vanilla | Survival | Subgrids | Scripts | DLC




With an acceleration of 380 m/s² (not a typo), the Tachyon Racer can outperform pretty much anything and turning at high speeds is suprisingly good thanks to the 2 large hydrogen thrusters on the bottom. The twin mass shifting drives on the back boast a total of 160 MN or 58 million horsepower, enough to lift a 16 million kg ship. It's equipped with a jump drive and has a fully pressurized interior, but really it's all about the speed. I highly recommend using a speedmod with a limit of 300 to 500 or something to fully appreciate this ship. In order to balance the mass shift drives I made sure that the center of mass deviates less than 1mm from the total thrust vector, so you won't experience even the slightest torque.
The design is inspired by one of the encounters, I think it's called skyheart and the razorback from the expanse. I tried the Alitalia racing colors (last screenshot), but ultimately went with the martini racing colors.

The ship works perfectly fine without scripts, but will have a lot less power due to the clang drives missing. If you build this in survival, go to the back, add an advanced rotor and a cargo container for each drive and add 21k iron ingots each.
