PMW-HV-FormulaPOD-21

Description
Pear's Motor Works proudly presents the FormulaPOD in MetaCola and Bell livery! This is PMW's entry for the Anvil designers challenge of October. Design a POD racer to join in a POD race in November.
There is a hidden minigun turret on it's bottom, don't tell the ref! One basic extender, a whole lot of thrust and RCS and an aerodynamic POD!
on the bottom are a few blocks marked where you could install some comforts like O2, fridge, more fuel? remove a RCS to gain some CPU points back. She is slightly over CPU and sits at 98% efficiency, has plenty of power.
The laser LCD is nicked from Sulusdacor! https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2356287105 I just used a shutter door loop so it stays active during flight.

The Anvil is a gaming community hosted by Xcaliber__ and consists of the nicest builders and Empyrion enthousiasts you'll meet. with monthly design challenges, a few great game servers and very busy discord!

join in on the fun, no contests, just exchange of ideas and see how people interpret these challenges! awesome community!

REFORGED ONLY
the big (SV) thrusters are not available in vanilla.. sorry! its the only thing though; so spawn her in creative and slap on 8 thrusters? plenty of CPU to spare.
Eleon! we want all the things on all the things!

PMW hopes you enjoy racing around in the FormulaPOD!
pls consider to leave a thumb up or a follow if you like what you are seeing!

hej vdub, yes a little bit for sure ;) thanks for the kind words
the laser beam is done with 4 LCDs, 2 on each side that get turned on and off with a door loop
enjoy!
