Shuttle - Starbase Fleet [27 prims]

Be the pilot of this prestigious luxury shuttle that can transport up to six passengers across the planet’s surface and even fly it up to your starbase. The Shuttle uses the latest antigravity technology and you can learn to fly it in just a few seconds. It's fast, responsive and looks great.

Features include
- Powerful anti-grav flight engine
- Very easy to fly
- Carries SIX passengers
- Open or close the canopy, hull or windows
- Posed seats
- Luggage and cargo storage area
- Jets, sounds, lights
- FREE Landing Pad

Flying the Shuttle
Touch the Shuttle or right-click the pilot seat and select "pilot". Once you're seated, wait a second or two as you hear the powerful anti-grav engines start up. Now, you can move by using the forward/back arrow keys to adjust the direction and speed, use the left/right arrow keys to steer, and use the PgUp and PgDn keys to climb and descend. Once you're moving, the thrust jet will stream from the rear as you steer. You can continue to fire the thrusters and move forward as long as you keep your finger on the forward arrow. Hold the Ctrl key down as you press the left/right arrow keys and you can perform a sideways strafe movement. You can also use "mouseview" if you wish. Also, if you want to move the SL camera-view further back (or forwards) for a better view, you can roll the mouse-wheel button.

Moving Parts.
The canopy over the pilot can be rolled open for easy access. The hull can be rolled open to reveal a clear glass cover over the Shuttle. The glass windows can also be opened and closed. You can activate the features by touching them or by typing in commands such as "open canopy" or "close canopy" and you can substitute "glass" or "hull" for further control. The pilot's plasma display screens will also show you more information if you touch them.

Rear Storage
At the back of the Shuttle is a luggage and cargo storage area. Touch the circular door to open or close it.

Landing Pad.
You get a free landing pad with the Shuttle. It can be placed anywhere on a flat surface and it includes all the tech lights, custom signs for shuttle landings and parking bay. It also has boarding steps that can fold out vertically so your passengers can board in style.

Parking Up.
If you stand up while you’re still flying it, you'll bang your head! Also, the Shuttle will automatically turn off any forward motion, maintain its height and lock its vertical and geostationary position. So, you can park next to a high landing platform or the top of a docking column by getting out of your pilot's seat when you're in position. It's then safe leave the vehicle.

Security.
The Shuttle is DNA-locked, a security feature that allows only the owner to fly it. You won't have any worries of someone else flying off with it after you've parked it. If they want to fly one, tell them to get their own!

Adjustments.
It's all copy and mod, so you edit the vehicle, including changing the textures. You can manually adjust and edit the position of the seat and the steering control to best fit your avi's shape. You need to know what you're doing to do this, though. Ensure vehicle's rotation coords are all set to zero before you move the controls and the support and you can't be sat in it while you're working on it. Don't modify or move the vehicle's root prim. And always work on a copy, not the original vehicle.

This vehicle is scaled perfectly for use with the Exosphere Modules such as the Landing Terminal, the Landing Dome and the Vehicle Bay.

Well it's an antigravity flying vessel which makes it very easy to fly by and it does what it says, good amount of seats, nice textures, low LI, I really like how the cockpit opens, is not really perfect to align with the docking base since it's manual landing, but still it works, I only put 4 stars because I'd have liked the landing gears to retract while flying.
