Jadek Menaheim Xer Cloud Consortium 1527	Posted - 2014.01.06 23:00:00 - [1] - Quote Show me beyond a shadow of a doubt that it's not possible to fly a tank on top of 2 or more dropships. The dropships may take any configuration. You may even stack dropships under dropships. But if you can prove to me this is impossible, I will award to 20 tickets, plus the 20 tickets of nullifying the previously posted challenge.

Currently, player have gotten as far as being able to set a tank on top of two dropships but they had issues with thrust to mass. This may possible be corrected with displacement over a third or forth ship. Borne Velvalor, bested my last signature with style. I present a new challenge.

Atiim Living Like Larry Schwag 3095	Posted - 2014.01.06 23:17:00 - [8] - Quote You don't even need a Dropship to "fly" a tank. Just look at the NOS from Day 1 of 1.7. Tanker > Logi > Scout > AV > Heavy > Assault > Sniper > Ninja > Forum Warrior. And more weapons than you can count!
Scheneighnay McBob Bojo's School of the Trades 3421	Posted - 2014.01.06 23:19:00 - [9] - Quote I gotta do some stuff first. Mail me in-game and I'll bring my incubus. My theory is that the incubus has the highest max speed of any dropship, as it's gallente and an ADS; also stack afterburners in the high slots. We used to have a time machine

Scheneighnay McBob Bojo's School of the Trades 3423	Posted - 2014.01.06 23:49:00 - [11] - Quote ALL RIGHT- I have an Incubus with an enhanced afterburner and 3 militia overdrives. We need another to match this, along with a pair of gorgons with mlt afterburners on top. Guessing a sica would be the lightest to lift, judging by how caldari LAVs roll more easily than gallente We used to have a time machine
Scheneighnay McBob Bojo's School of the Trades 3424	Posted - 2014.01.07 00:17:00 - [12] - Quote Damnit! Where are you people? I had to make some changes to the original plan. Still need another ADS pilot at least. When we last tried this, ADSes weren't a thing (then again, dropships had more thrust than they have now) We used to have a time machine
Lynn Beck Granite Mercenary Division Top Men. 501	Posted - 2014.01.07 00:39:00 - [13] - Quote I have 30 overdrives on my main, but my tanker is skilled i to dropships.

Fire of Prometheus DUST University Ivy League 2665	Posted - 2014.01.07 00:45:00 - [14] - Quote How to complete challenge: Step 1 Get onto the Line harvest map. Step2 Get on top of one of those giant towers Step 3 Get numerous dropships to form a "bridge" off the side of the tower Step 4 Call in tank on top of tower Step 5 Drive tank onto dropships Step 6 Pray to whatever deity you believe in that it works. If it does work, give fire 5 tickets for coming up with the plan to complete this. Proud member of the Commando 6 <3 Commando AK.0
Scheneighnay McBob Bojo's School of the Trades 3425	Posted - 2014.01.07 01:40:00 - [15] - Quote IT'S POSSIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We didn't manage sustained flight, but my dropship was powerful enough to lift it until we lost balance and flipped. It was an incubus with an enhanced afterburner and 3 mlt overdrives. Driving the HAV was Ryan Cladera; piloting the second dropship (we failed to get the HAV on 2 at a time) was dzizur We used to have a time machine

Scheneighnay McBob Bojo's School of the Trades 3425	Posted - 2014.01.07 01:44:00 - [17] - Quote We were here- https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=80605&find=unread the building the HAV drove off of was at E4 FYI I lost 2 fits of priceless overdrives to do this. The first was when we tried a tower, and I flipped (high speed into the ground), the second was when I tried recalling, but a blueberry jacked my dropship and crashed it.

Iron Wolf Saber Den of Swords 11627	Posted - 2014.01.07 02:00:00 - [23] - Quote Considering the fastest way I know to kill some tanks is to park on top of the and stay there, and that a lav touching a dropship instantly kills the dropship, I give this high amounts of doubt of feasibility.

dzizur Zumari Force Projection Caldari State 11	Posted - 2014.01.07 02:04:00 - [25] - Quote if you only stayed a little longer bob, we spawned on empty server with those big towers, we did not have the second pilot though, and it seems to me that overdrives could prove very usefull, shame i used all of them in onikumas not knowing that they were deleted from market... oh well. but im quite sure that 2 DS are enough to pull this off.

Do you think the overdrives were key? Unless you forgot to hit afterburners, my dropship seemed to have a much easier time lifting the HAV than yours did We used to have a time machine

I never saw that happen this build. Collision damage seems to be fine now. It wasn't particularly difficult to do, so try it yourself. We used to have a time machine

dzizur Zumari Force Projection Caldari State 13	Posted - 2014.01.07 02:20:00 - [29] - Quote yes, i think overdrives were crucial because i noticed the same thing, and i had the afterburner on, so there's no room for other explananation. i was also wondering if there is a difference in mass when it comes to different tanks. also, trying out with pythons would be a good idea too, i think they are more agile, maybe have more pull too? i know it would be harder to fit a tank there, but that placed was good enough to align it anyway
