Auto Credit Based on Potato21's cloud car wip
Hey guys, here is my newest Star Wars build, a 1/1 Storm IV Cloud Car from The Empire Strikes Back!
Takeoff:
First AG1 for the gyroscope, then full throttle up. After a few seconds, push the VTOL bar all the way up for the main engines. Once it starts flying you can deactivate the gyroscope and fly like a normal plane
Controls:
It flies like a normal plane, and has 2 light laser cannons.
Heres some info about cloud cars from Wookiepedia.
Cloud cars were flying atmospheric vehicles that were used to patrol the skies of Cloud City, a mining colony on the planet Bespin. They featured twin "pods" connected by a repulsorlift engine, and were fitted with light blaster cannons. Each car was crewed by a pilot and a gunner.
Bye!

I remember dicking around with some of these for the fun of it in the original 2003 Star Wars battlefront 1 on cloud city and wondering why the hell would a civilian ship have guns lol
Look at this dude. with his orange lookin, submarine cone head lookin, pickle nose pilot lookin- For real though nice build
Well at the end they were not delivering packages I guess, please tell me someone gets this.
I know this might be a bit too big but I have an idea on what you could build next the Harrower class dreadnought for knights of the old republic @Potato21
My favourite SW film, nice job on this!
@Potato21 ohh
Ohh! Lol! No, it just flys around like a plane, sorta like a flying car.@Diloph
, I meant like a cloud car? Does it fly on clouds?@Potato21
For takeoff I have vtol nozzles set up at the center of mass, and a gyroscope that makes it more steady (and controllable) during take off. When you push the vtol lever forward, it makes the nozzles tilt forwards and the main engines power up. It flys because I just got some big wings and scaled them down a lot so it would be really steady and agile. That’s essentially it. Btw I’m glad you enjoyed it! @Diloph
Thanks, I finished the mandolorian recently also, it’s really good! @Mustang51
@Potato21 how does it work in general? it is awesome toO!!!!
This is wonderful! I just finished the Mandalorian so seeing something Star Wars related was pretty nice
What do you mean? Like how it flys?@Diloph

Thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks @CrashFighter05
Thanks!@MrPorg137
Can't wait to destroy three refueling star destroyers!
Love that you did this from Star Wars. And nobody ever really notices it, so you can now be known as the only one who plays this game who has made this!
Cool!

Very cool! It really captures the essence of the real thing!
@Potato21 Np!
