RSI - Constellation Mk3

Description
This ship is based upon the Star Citizen Constellation but a lot of sacrifices were made aesthetically :P
I have seen at least two excellent aesthetic reproductions of the constellation already on SE, though neither of them were really that functional. While they looked extremely pretty, they lacked maneuvrable thrusters or used hidden thrusters that thruster damage destroys.

SCALE + NOTES
This ship is about 65m long, 10 more than specified on the ship specs. I dont think its as wide, and it's definitely too tall, but thats because noone builds the edge of ships to be 2.5m thick.

Functionality in SE:
The ship is meant to be used to transport cargo as there are a LOT of cargo containers. All of the weapons are linked to a ship wide conveyor system, as are the nuclear reactors, as is the medical bay. This kind of means that the inside looks nothing like the constellation as it just isnt possible in SE if you want it to actually work.

The ship has a 3x3 landing platform on the bottom of the ship, attached to a rotor marked: bay door rotor. Just hit reverse and it will rotate 180 degrees flipping a small fighter/mining ship in the bay onto the outside/inside of the Constellation. I have yet to add a small ship, i might attempt to make the Merlin but I don't know when I'll get round to it.

I let my younger brother have a go at making a small ship, happened to fit in the bay so it will do for now :)

It is a backround, like the boring grey, fake asteroid filled backround, I just replaced it with this new dds file :)

A planet would most likely crash most people's computers :(

so its a addon? and no real planet addon where you can land on it?

It is merely a skybox, I replaced the file with one downloaded from some forums, i forget where.

Torque = 33.0
Braking torque = 33.6
Velocity? = +/- 0.32
Limit 1 = 0
Limit 2 = 180

I can't remember what the term was for velocity, but the third setting :P Then just hit reverse :)
