GTR is back, with another new model.
Only this time, it's way more high-tech.
Controls: WASD, Q and E for thrust variation, and R and F for yaw. To fly it, click "Command Drone". Since I have not found a useful command for the spacebar yet, "Space" cuts the throttle and allows you to drop through floors if you gain enough momentum.
Hold down "Option" to use the internal front facing camera.
This is the second version to my scout vehicle collection. This is the MicroDrone UAV vehicle that would be included with each buggy. The MicroDrone has two cameras: One in the front and one on the belly. 5 different sensors in the nose detect atmospheric temperature, light, thermal (thermal camera), laser distance sensor, and altimiter. This micro vehicle uses two brushless powered rotors with full four channel control, including yaw, pitch, etc. It uses four micro servos to control the rotor heads and direct the blades. It is flybarless, meaning there is no flybar to stabilize the blades. Instead, it uses the drone's incredible onboard conputer to microcorrect any stability errors in order to keep in in flight. It lasts for a very, very long time in the air. It is commanded by your buggy, primarily for CTF surveillance or quarry hunting. The drone itself if visible to the eye, but no data can be read from it (like name, and quarry points in the green tag.) It is virtually invisible if under a layer of fog. This can record the position of the quarry with a tiny microlaser and send this data back to your buggy, telling you in which direction the quarry is. This is great for spying or scouting. The drone is parked inside your buggy cockpit, and has limited performance figures, similar to the performance figures of the buzzer that I modeled a while ago:
"I thought of an idea,
which I believe someone mentioned. This could be a scout vehicle for
any other vehicle. It would be VERRY small, like the size of a baseball
or softball. It would not be capable of taking the quarry or shooting
anything. It could have a tiny laser that it could shoot, but doesn't
do anything. Or maybe when the fog is on full and the minimap is off
and there are camo badges, you could sneak up on your enemy and fire a
tiny laser that records their position. It would show up on that green
cone thing in the corner of your screen. Then you would fly back to
your vehicle, and park the buzzer/scout vehicle in the tiny scout
garage concealed inside each vehicle. I think it sounds like a pretty
cool idea. Top speed is maybe 34 mph. What do you think, guys?"
Technical Specs:
Top speed: 90 mph
Level of control: Four Channel
Pitch status: Fixed pitch rotorhead
Camera type: Infrared, Thermal, Normal
Radio frequency: 2.4ghz
Battery life: 24 hours of nonstop flight
Sensors: Heat, light, distance, altitude, atmospheric pressure
Payload: small objects under 18 ounces
This drone takes the color of your buggy. It is very unique and I plan for it to use jet physics (Minus the forward flight mode, just hover mode) to navigate. Its sensors help keep the blades from walls and other objects by redirecting it away.

As always, questions and comments wanted.
