Vectis Mk 1 - Scout Hoverbike

Description
This model is a concept, keeping it's simple and clean looking design.
The Vectis Mk 1 is a fast hoverbike designed for scouting and high speed/altitute travels. It features a gatling gun for light assaults. It's compact and clean design doesn't allow for much equipment, but certainly will make up for it wheen speed is needed, aside from the fact that it's actually capable of flight!

Notes:
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Even though it's small, it's really power hungry, so there are 8 small reactors that needs to be fed in case you play on survival. This is a one time hassle, as the reactors are strategically placed to not show that horrid yellow port too much, breaking all the harmony of the design, look at the last 3 screenshots and it will show you how to properly access the reactor ports for fueling. It wouldn't fit a baftery, I'm sorry.

Try to not get upside down.

Fun little bike! Used this as an atmospheric ceiling test on Mars and got it up to about 1.25 km before it sputtered out completely and I had to idle back down to park it.

It's 100% survival ready as description says, unless KSH dramatically changes atmospheric thrusters wich o believe they will not. So yeah, you can project one of these, fuel it up, and use on survival perfectly

On a scale of 1 to survival ready how survival ready is this?

@Lord Nilix once you sit, press K to open the bikes terminal, there the first option should be ***remote control*** I made s group for it so it will always be topmost option. Can you find this? If not, did you projected the bike?
