M-49

Description
No Mods but DLC is used

Description
I created this little miner to be used with the Oxbow but it works fine as a standalone ship. The M-49 has been set up to be used with the PAM script and is also designed with the option of operating the ship and the script remotely as a drone. The automation provided by using PAM is very effective and simple to use but the script is optional, this ship works perfectly fine without it. With Ion only thrusters the M-49 is intended to be used as an asteroid miner. I tried to keep the design of the M-49 as compact as possible to avoid it getting stuck in tight places and during testing it proved to be solid in that area by never actually getting stuck. While the M-49's cargo space may be a bit small, if you use the PAM script and automate four to six M-49's, you can clear an asteroid cluster of its ore/Ice in a relatively short amount of time.

Fair Point.
I was using these from a base so i had a bit of a commute between jobs.

@KillJoy, I would expect people to modify this ship, or any ship I've posted, to fit their needs, but as far as the original design goes it was created for use with the Oxbow Mk2 and the PAM script. This miner would fill up long before it ran out of power and if it got below a certain %power PAM would keep it docked up until it that was resolved. Glad you like this little miner, I was happy with how it turned out back when I made it.

Great Design though I would make one tiny change and move the ore detector somewhere elso on the ship and then add a small reactor to the underside of the connector, only to ease my own anxiety of running out of power in the middle of a job.

M-49... I see what you did there. Pretty clever.
