Batman Tumbler


Recommended Posts

Hi all!

Today I would like to share with you my newly completed Batman Tumbler.

I spent a long time fiddling with the design. Its a very complex shape to recreate. Plus we don't have any usable larger wheels.

The RoveMax Model XL3 wheels have no grip unless they are more or less vertical. And I wanted this thing to be drivable.

So I have stuck with the TR-2L Ruggedized wheels for the front and back. Its a compromise but a necessary one.

Due to the smaller rear wheels I had to change the rear a little as in RL the whole rear section is just wheels.

It drives great and is very stable. It has a little motor that can give you a boost for jumps! I have jumped the runway and survived intact in it.

I also flew this thing to the mun, all legit, and roved around. Its definably better on Kerbin!

I tried to jump a crater and made a video of that too.

There are two seats and I little interior cockpit.

Let me know how you get on.

*NOTES*

Load up your crew from the pod and off you go!

The front headlights are controlled using action group 1

Pressing U activates the blinding power of batman's light defense mechanism :D And slow your FPS, use sparingly

For the love of Jeb, don't press g

Or do..

Thanks for looking.

Going to redo the sides of this thing. Its perfect front and back but fugly side on.

;.;

Batman deserves better.

Nevermind the sides, the front looks sick! and anyway, that's all the villains see as they're fleeing from it! (and then the back, once its driven over them)

Perhaps a splash of black would add more batman to it too, if you're not averse to KerbPainting it.

I would love to but Kerbpaint currently doesn't work with the landing gear, and its 90% landing gears.. :D
