Lasers that actually go pew pew :p

I really should consider making a thruster sled at some point, it sounds like massive fun.
The best use I've seen of thruster sled has been as calvary.  When half the players are dead, you can ride in and sweep up decisively, wherever you need to be.

I often use hovers with my sleds. When you go low to the ground, the hovers don't slow you down that much and still give you full steering.

Have you tried using rudders to improve handling on your sleds?

So I've finally managed to put it together. Not quite how I expected it to turn out.

 The Graceful Asp MK-IV, Tier 8 Plasma hybrid (Hoverbike/flyer)



Cutaway:


This vehicle is capable of going nearly anywhere and adapting to just about any situation with its incredibly flexible combination of mobility parts. It can hover in place, turn in place, glide over terrain, climb hills with ease, control its height when close to ground, and has the ability to straight up fly with some coaxing.
 It is sadly very hard to control at times, it can outright fight me when I want it to end its glide and return to ground for example so I use its flight capabilities sparingly. Otherwise it is a joy to fly over terrain as it has a very smooth form of turning.

 It is somewhat fragile, but is very heavily armed with twin tier 10 plasmas on the bottom towards the front for firing over cliffs and twin tier 9 plasmas toward the back on top to give it a larger burst and some redundancy. It has very good jamming and radar as well, with twin tier 7 jammers and a tier 5, as well as a tier 9 radar and tier 5 radar.
 When it isn't fighting me it is very fast, using the same tier 9 thrusters as my drift raider as well as a small collection of other thrusters to help increase mobility in various ways.

I tried making a ski robot that wouldn't spend the whole match on the back and wouldn't be chewed up by tier 5s on the cheap, and this was the result. What say you?

Looks ok to me. I suppose the decision to use 4 guns is due to the RR limit?

Pretty much. I've got quite a few mk4 SMGs in storage but it kind of looks like they'd just be inconvenient considering one mk5 makes more damage than two of them together.

Tier 5.
