T-600 Tank

9,513 DavstrWrexham  4.9 years ago

At last, my first proper tank.

Instructions

Throttle controls the engine and yaw steers. The tank will spin on the spot if required, all be it slowly.
VTOL swivels the turret and trim raises and lowers the main gun. To fire the main gun, switch to ground weapons and launch weapon as normal.

The tank can float and has a water motor for sea travel which is enabled by Group2. On the water, Yaw steers as it does on land. Turret controls are the same.

As for Group 1, the tank will transform and you have a futuristic jet to fly. Normal flight controls. Disabling group 8 will make the flying easier. You will need to apply a small amount of right rudder at take off, but it is fine afterwards. The main tank gun and support gun can still be used in flight mode; perfect for taking out the bridges or ships.

Have fun and I hope someone can improve it.

    for some strange reason in tank mode it reminds me a lot of the classic Tron tank.

    @FLYGUY101 Nice, I might try it once I have the project fully planned. If you want to see another major mechanism for the big project, take a look at this. It's one of my older builds but is does something which I will use in the big project.

    I highly recommend posting a teaser forum when you're about 1 week away from releasing it. Basically what I did with the ADF-11F Raven |Deluxe.

    @FLYGUY101 Thanks. This is prototype for a couple of new mechanisms for the transforming. It's heading towards the big project.
