ISL - Squatina-IO 38 Prospector (No DLC)

DISCLAIMER: These ships/rovers are designed for PC, with scripts. they will work without them, but some functionality (eg. advanced wheel control, automated mining and shuttle routes, etc.) and fancy LCD readouts will be missing.

Purpose

A medium size shuttle with a large grid ore detector attached at the rear, designed for surveying asteroids and planet/lunar surfaces for ore.

For a rover fulfilling the same role, try the Prospector-RO 31.

The Squatina has limited cargo space, in exchange for extra batteries and a longer range. It is also able to escape planetary gravity, and so can be used as a personal shuttle.

When printing this shuttle using the ISL - Small Ship Printer or a similar set up, please note that projections are not able to extend to subgrids. This means that the large grid ore detector attachment (1 Large Grid Ore Detector & 1 Advanced Rotor Head) will have to be built separately and then attached to the ship. There is enough space between there the detector sits and the thrusters of the squatina to allow the rotor to turn 360 degrees without colliding.

This ship has an empty mass of 62380 kgs, and can fly at a maximum tilt of 90 degrees below horizon.

All toolbars are the same from the cockpit and remote control.

All ships in this set have a Merge block (front mounted on this ship) and can be printed using a welder wall with one (large grid) piston. However in this design the merge block should be ground down after printing, all blocks that require removal are painted bright red.
