Uses rotating screw drives for propulsion. ISRU Capable.

CONTROLS
[Action 1]: Activates all rotors / enables drive
[Abort]: Enable strafing mode
[Gear]: Toggle rotor direction (works with forward/backward and left/right for strafing)
[Brakes]: Works like normal brakes, stops the craft. Letting go will resume previous speed.

DRIVING
The RPM limit of each of the 4 rotors is controlled similarly to thrust, using W and S (wheel throttle) to increase or decrease the RPM limit of the rotors.

Letting go of forward WILL NOT SLOW THE CRAFT. The only way to slow down is to hold S / reverse binding, which will decrease the RPM limit of the rotors until reaching 0 RPM.

For water usage, flip the craft over, which may require use of wheel throttle, and control from the lander can on the bottom set to ‘up’. Aim radially in to maintain stability, and reverse for returning to land. Pack extra fuel just in case.
