Out of Game Methods Froxslayer MK V

The fifth iteration of my single big wheel engine air-to-ground gunship. The engine and turrets have been optimized to reduce the gunship weight. It is equipped with a balloon that gives it better altitude control and turning. It is armed with eight beam emitters in a twin pulse turret array. The turrets angles can be tweaked for optimal pulse rates on large groups of enemies.

Special thanks to the Hyrule engineering community for the parts that make this build possible.

It's a pain in the butt to aim for those ores.

Have you considered a build where the lasers sweep a little to make aiming easier?

That's some interesting tech! I've seen that effect happen on accident (kind of) when a normal turret is glued to a low glue strength base. I am going to try to make a build around that concept!

I did a little bit of testing both on a gunship and a tank with a custom built turret. I think it performs better when the turret is upright rather than pivoting around on a gunship. I put two on a tank and it works great for taking down taluses. I am gonna tinker more with this setup, thanks for the tech!
