Description
WHI - M4 Mining Drone - MK2

The M4-MK2 is a redesigned and overall improved version of the old M4 drone. Having slightly higher cargo capacity with 2x Large Containers and have increased thrust and power capacity to make it easier to pilot and better at handing at higher altitudes. As such, it is also a bit bigger and bulkier as well as having a higher material cost.

The M4 uses remote control through an antenna and is best used for short distances while using a mining truck as a drop off point. A timer block allows it to switch on and off any essential systems when it docks and undocks to save power and prevent thrusters and gyros from interfering with any truck or base it may dock to.

Awesome build. For years I've been using the M4 MK1 on every survival world I make, including on servers. It makes me really happy that you managed to improve it. Can't wait to try this one out!
