List of differences:
- Left & Right doors are vanilla
- Batteries top & bot are Vanilla
- Suspension is Vanilla



On the bleeding edge of rover tech, i bring you my latest prototype design.

This framework is for making your very own Rollcage/Grip: Combat Racing type racer/rover. It uses vanilla large grid 3x3 wheel suspensions with a large to small grid rotor conversion to make a one of a kind small rover frame (survival possible with rotor attatchement)

It Features:
- A gravity aligned cockpit using p3st|cIdE's RotorAlign script. making sure that the cockpit always faces the correct way up (filedetails/?id=2211458232)
- A rotor mounted suspension system that rotates 180 degrees based on which side of the vehicle is facing up with a combination of sensors, timers and MongognoM's Rotor_Velocity_Control script (filedetails/?id=855404295)
- Whip's Subgrid wheel, thruster controller and Gyroscope script


This rover/racer frame is built to flip upside down and just keep going and makes good use of the AirShock feature built ingame to avoid crash landings. The transition is a little slower than it needs to be, so in the future i may tweak the speed of the cockpit or look at transitioning to another script for the rotor wheel assembly



Controls:
Tab 1

1: Parking Brake for subgrid wheels
2. Engage Air Control 10 sec
3. Toggle Booster Thrusters
4-5. View top/bot Camera

Tab 2
1-3 manual controls for cockpit rotor (tab 1 button 4 to deactivate before using manual controls)
4: Toggle gravity alignement cockpit script

Please:
If you make your own version using this as your base, please show it off in the comment section! i would love to see it

Thanks to Whiplash141 and Tekk for their amazing subgrid wheel script's that makes things like this possible!
