Star Citizen - Drake Dragonfly [Vanilla]

Where can you go with the Drake Dragonfly? You’re on Terra. Take a look at the horizon and pick out any point. A looming mountain, a faraway alien ocean teaming with life, a distant megapolis. You’ll be there in no time. Now you’re on Port Olisar. Crane your neck up and pick anything in the heavens. A blazing star, a desolate moon, a looming asteroid. The Dragonfly, Drake’s first ultralight ship, will take you there… and beyond!

Drake Interplanetary is fond of claiming that they build starships for the way you live; with the Dragonfly, they’ve gone an extra step and built a new way of life around the ship itself. Highly compact for easy storage anywhere and capable of traversing both space and ground, the 2947 Dragonfly changes the way we think about ships.

Durable and inexpensive, the Dragonfly can be operated by a lone rider, a team of two or serve as part of an intergalactic ‘motorcycle gang.’ Like other Drake ships, it is designed to operate alongside other ship platforms: imagine loading up a Caterpillar with a trio of Dragonflies, flying close support and retrieval for a Cutlass Red ambulance or strafing a massive cargo ship. It’s all possible with the 2947 Drake lineup.

The Dragonfly is a semi-inexpensive ultralight capable of operating on all vanilla planets. It is fully conveyored, with the exception of the two reactors, both located in easy-access sections of the craft. Uranium, ice, and ammo for the two front-mounted weapons have been supplied, so just paste the blueprint in and get started.

There may be some discrepancy from the original design created by CIG, but rest assured I have attempted to keep this reproduction as close as possible to the original design.

While created in the dev branch, this blueprint works perfectly fine in stable due to the current synced state of the two branches. I will endeavor to keep it that way.

If you are wanting to use this in survival, you will need my Hydrogen Rebalance mod, in the Required Items section on the right. This is because vanilla hydrogen is incredibly underpowered, and would have required about three hydrogen tanks for each five minutes of flight, to say nothing of the 25k+ ice required to generate all that gas, and the complete refactor to support that weight and bulk.

The rebalance mod simply adjusts the energy density of hydrogen to a level where a small O2 gen can supply about 8-10 small hydrogen thrusters.
