Update 1: currently working on a fully functional version, will post as a successor when it's done.

Original description:


*THIS IS CURRENTLY JUST A NON-WORKING MODEL*

*It is just for show, and a bit of an experiment!*

*Please don't leave this bad ratings just because it is non-functioning.*

This is an anti-gravity craft featured in Wipeout Pulse, Wipeout HD and its DLC called HD Fury. Below is some information about the craft: (off the Wipeout Wiki)

"The Foundation for European Anti-Gravity Research was founded in the early 21st century and was a member of the World Anti-Gravity Research Congress. The Foundation became the leader in anti-gravity research when Pierre Belmondo emerged as its Director in 2024. But later that year, influenced by profit-driven governments, the Congress was shut down, and anti-gravity technology was then deemed "inefficient" and "never...cost-effective". Regardless, Belmondo pushed on with anti-gravity research in secret. He proved the whole world that anti-gravity transport is possible as he accomplished the first flight in an AG craft in 2035.

To solve the problem of the shortage of funds and express concerns regarding the technology, AG Systems was established as the commercial arm of the Foundation in 2040, with Belmondo as director. The whole company was sold off to a Japanese consortium two years later, as a result of the closure of the Foundation. Even though the base of operations moved to Tokyo, Belmondo remained its director.

It was the time when an anti-gravity racing league was finally established, followed by the establishment of the other three teams as a result of AG Systems' influence:

Auricom and Qirex: Established by former AG Systems employees Delia Flaubert and Holst McQueen, respectively.
FEISAR: Established earlier as Europe's main anti-gravity research organization replacing the Foundation, and later form an AG racing team to replace AG Systems.

The F5000 League was the first time the team had done considerably well, as their craft was immaculate and it took little time for the pilots to gain experience and a little extra funding to put the team in a top position. However, with Piranha on the rise with their experimental craft, it became clear that AG Systems were not the only team looking at the latest technology and other teams were on the rise."

"A resurgent AG Systems have delivered this sleek and evolutionary design from their Japanese HQ, a well-balanced ship whose acceleration is virtually unrivalled."

    @Exumer I guess you can upload it if you REALLY want to but since upload I've been working on a functioning version (also using modded engines)

    I managed to make it work. Try extending the wing length or adding a tiny piece to the ends of the wings. That should do the trick.@Nightraider

    Exactly @Exumer. The difficulty is getting engines and weight balance perfect in such a small space.
