"Cuttlefish" Compliant-Arm Heavy Lifter

Ever wanted to pick something up that's NOT a 40ft standard ISO container?

Well now you can - all thanks to natures friend the tentacle.

Each tentacle has 6 DOF, and can be manipulated to open/close, translate in/out, rotate up/down, or rotate which directions the suckers face for clamping down on flat objects.

Runs on 2 jet turbine engines w/ PID controlled power management system. Speed is limited to 30kph to ensure the internal battery is constantly charging. Carries ~3500L of fuel and should run for a long time without refueling.

Additionally sports an extendable roof platform for engaging with carried cargo, magnetic stabilizer feet, targeting lasers, and rear ducted fans for additional counterweight when carrying heavy objects.
