This is a weekly posting with GURPS vehicles (and the like) to the GURPSnet mailing list. I grant the permission for all non-commercial redistribution of my work, but I would like to know if you put it on a website or the like. My site is down for rebuilding, but sooner or later the old stuff should reappear at omeyer.gmxhome.de Onno Meyer, 2007-05-14
Exhibit SM/1120/13126476 aka Spyeye-2 v1.0 (GURPS Traveller TL10) Copyright 2007 by Onno Meyer Exhibit 13126476 is based on the 1:64 scale model of a Sulieman-class Scout/Courier. The model starship mounts a genuine starship maneuvering thruster and a small electronics package, including a thermal imager, a GPS, a radio and a control computer. Exhibit 13126476 still falls short of a professional Instellarms or Naasirka RPV, but it does a credible job for a jury-rigged drone. The battery lasts for 33 minutes or a delta-V of 48 mps.
