C-835 Carryall VTOL Dropship and associated host vessels

10 items

Description

Featuring the C-835A Carryall Dropship mounted to bottom of the deep space freighter S.S. GDAŃSK, this transport is designed for lifting mission modules back and forth from the planet’s surface. It utilizes whiplash141’s excellent subgrid thruster control script to enable it to vector it’s 4 thrust modules, allowing it to carry an incredible 5.8 kilotons of material from the earth’s surface into space.

The transport has its own single jump drive, and amenities for 3 crew members allowing it to also undertake long interplanetary voyages. This ship has been designed specifically to allow you to spawn it in without DLC blocks (only a cosmetic armory and cargo block)

It features a full multi crew Glass cockpit with all the information required to safely operate, it can also be stowed away to allow clear view out of the front of the flight deck.

Just remember to keep your thrusters deactivated when not in flight, as they are thirsty and will drain your fuel while just idle!

CARRYALL OPERATION TIPS:

/!\ Surface to Orbit Manual at max weight: Use Tilt Rotor Timer block to switch modes. Reset Dampener after switch to re-calibrate. Do not exceed max total weight if trying to ascend to Orbit. Do not ascend with less than 85% fuel. Pitch up while transitioning from hover and keep large engines facing downward at all times when at max weight. With balanced thrust usage you can reach space with at least 25% hydrogen left. Second tab has thrust override for rear fixed thrusters to adjust throttle in ascent

General Operation Tips: When in hover, pitch and roll gently to get better lateral movement when heavy. Disable large thrusters when in space and when without heavy load. Use remote block and camera to steer and align module docking connectors. Make sure loads are balanced and not heavier on one side. Deploy parachutes if landing heavy. Idling Hydrogen thrusters drain fuel & ice.

This is an all vanilla companion to the Cosmo-Liner CARL SAGAN colony ship.

This requires scripts to run (mainly for whips thrust vectoring, but also for automatic lcds, radar and improved horizon)

The 'Respawnship - S.S. GDANSK Tug on fire' is now available at https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2205334058
Many thanks for letting me use the ship! I put in some links to your stuff and credits ofc.

sure sounds neat!

I made a respawn ship based on the burning tug part of the freighter after a pirate attack, for space respawns in a private scenario I want to play. Would it be ok to upload the respawn ship to the workshop? With full credits for the blueprint/concept and link to this page of course. I mostly just shot it up in some strategic places, made sure it's spinning/burning properly and added some cargo to get started, incl. daily needs food & drinks etc.
Either way, can't wait to play with it myself :D

Absolutely fantastic! Immensely detailed and superbly functional. I have rarely seen a better blueprint concept.

I know the dropship consumes a ton of fuel, so I've made an atmospheric version of the ship, it keeps two large thrusters to allow it to reach space still with a lighter load
