Introducing Battle Ax BTX-2s Revision #2!

In this revision, the old, sturdy Battle Ax got some pretty neat updates, such as:

- fixed turret (it can be turned again)
- rebuilt and rebalanced turret wich doesn't tilts up and down in gravity
- new panorama camera which can be seamlessly controlled by mouse movement
- tail lights
- tweaked wheel parameters for better manouverability
- removed turret-lock-gear and replaced by the rotor's internal safety lock mechanism
- removed the old clanky turret aim (instead of rotors, it can be operated by mouse!)
- moved targeting scope under the cannon, so it is less vulnerable to gunfire
- ...aaand last, but not least, removed camo pattern with some dirt stained, scrached paintjob for extra rustic look and feel!

Feel free to ask me in the comment section!

See you in the battlefield, engineers!

Introducing BTX-2s rev.1

This revision of the Battle Ax focusing on the issues regarding the turret's vertical movement, along with several minor fixes and additons.

Also, old images have been replaced.


Changelist:
----------------
- The cannon has been completely redesigned - the center of mass and the rotor axis has been aligned (not perfectly, but the turret will keep it's vertical angle between -10° and 10°)
- The cannon mount has been raised, allowing the gunner to turn the main gun below 0° (up to -13°)
- Wheels have been tweaked for planetary surface
- Driver cam moved to the center, giving better sight for the pilot
- Added air wents (letting the crew access fresh air from the environment)
- Removed artifical mass blocks from chassis
