T-70HR-X Hover Racer

Description
Updated: fixed three small build errors (see change notes).
(could not update, so i had to re-upload)

----------------------

- meant for speed and maneuverability
- motor compartments can be opened
- functional landing gear and cockpit canopy
- tail spoiler can be lifted, to show off the main thruster or for easify flipping the ship back on its feet

Switches in the cockpit, left side:
Top: Reactors on/off
Mid: Thrusters on/off
Low: open/close motor covers
Switches on the right side:
Top: open/close cockpit
Mid: headlights on/off
Low: lift/lower tail spoiler

To change settings of the hovercraft computer, it can be easily accessed once the motor covers are open. It's located right behind the pilot seat next to the reactor engine.
Have fun speeding!

"Who said that the only hovercrafts built by Terminal Industries are all small, cheap and much too fast to be safe ?
Terminal Industries presents the T-70HR-X Hover Racer. As a dedicated heavy hover racing machine, the powerful starship-grade engine can catapult you forward - easily reaching the devastating speed of 140 m/s and possibly more over long, flat surfaces.
Should you reach the end of these long flat surfaces at said speed or higher, you usually end up having three choices:

1. Do a 180 Deg turn and fire the main engines for braking quickly

2. Aim yourself at a steeper slope, thus catapulting you into the skies (or out of the atmosphere, should you reside in an agricultural ringworld station)

3. Aim for a hard, sturdy and massive object to fatally vaporize yourself and your shiny ride into a glorious, devastating cloud of superheated plasma with a deafening blast that will be noticed many miles away.

Terminal Industries recommends option 1 for your own safety, even though option 3 may sound like the most terminal one as well as a quite explosive way to go."
