This is a WIP VFA-6 Veritech Alpha Fighter from Robotech. It still needs some work but I couldn't resist sharing it with the community now that it works. A lot of the ship is still hollow and needs shields/power/trusters etc. I also need to build a couple cannons for it to hold. I'd also like to move/rotate some of the cores to make assembly easier and I need to add some of those blue pickup rails because sometimes things undock for no reason. I'd also like to move some of the logic so the wireless links are all easily accessible.
Here's the ship in fighter mode.
And here we see it in battleoid mode.
And here we can see it transform!
In order to pilot the ship you first get in by opening the cockpit with the buttons on either side. The cockpit itself isn't where you actually pilot the ship from but it has a teleporter you use to access the core. From the core you need to inherit thrusters in order to fly. I have inner ship remotes set up for a small auto jump drive, some swarmer missiles, and the transformation sequence. To go from fighter to battleoid the order is 1,2,3,4 and to go from battleoid to fighter its 4,3,2,1. Don't initiate the sequences too quickly or things can jam up. The final version will have a single button you need to press and the transformation will be automatic from there.
If anyone has any suggestions on improvements I could make or just has some cosmetic changes they want to show me I'd love some feedback. I'd also love to eventually see a bunch of these with different heads, paint jobs, and guns.
