On heavy loads reactors and bateries have not enough power so I added few small reactors more and just for fun stone ejecting system.

I hope people come to expect aesthetically pleasing, but quality builds from me. :)

Thanks for your time testing and all.

Nice! Looking forward to the updated model. By far the best looking miner I've seen on the workshop. Kudos and Happy New Years.

Absolute maximum recommended load is 650,000kg, or 525m in Cargo Mass while horizontal. (On Mars)

Mars was chosen as a benchmark because of its less-than-ideal conditions for atmospheric ships. Other planets perform better to differing degrees.

Since atmospheric small thrusters have a greater output/kg, I'll be placing several in between the drills to enhance reverse thrust. This should alleviate some of the duress that the miner experiences while drilling vertically. Two additional small thrusters will be placed in other locations. The miner will also receive a much easier system for drilling; instead of holding the mouse button down, it'll be up to a few simple button presses.

I can look into improving this while I do some more testing on the Exocet. If you get a random update, you'll know what happened :)

Yeah. I found out the issue. My welder missed some reactors. Works great now. Only issue (like the other guy said) is that once you get some ore weight into the cargo containers, it doesn't work. Not sure if it's the best design for survival. But damn...it sure looks beautiful. Great work.

Are inertial dampeners on?

Really like this build. Tried it out in my single player survival (earth) and it has issues staying afloat. I have to keep hitting the up button for it to stay up otherwise it plummets down. Any ideas? All thrusters/reactors are on.

The Charybdis can carry well over its default cargo load on atmospheric thrusters alone. This should be no different.

Looks like its not survival possible, because:
too less thruster to lift, when its container are filled with ore...
(didnt test it, but o2 thruster to lift are not enough normally on a planet ;)
