Raveled Posted February 5, 2013 Author Posted February 5, 2013 Design Journal 20.4. Further notes on development of Long Range Research Yard (LRRY) mk 1. Restatement of principals: this design is intended to provide a field lab wherein initial experiments and necessary per-fabrication can be carried out, until sample can be moved to larger, more substantial facilities or in case sample cannot be moved. The main body of the LRRY is based off a V-22 Osprey tiltrotor. A range of between one thousand and two thousand miles would allow the LRRY to reach nearly to the West Coast, or almost to Greenland, or into South America without refueling. The weight load isn't nearly as much a problem as the interior space. I'm designing as much of the interior mechanisms as possible to be deployable. That means once the LRRY reaches its destination the occupant will have to spend time unloading and setting up the laboratory equipment, but it will allow the aircraft to carry appropriate gear to investigate almost any situation.Long Range Research Yard (LRRY) mk 1 [20EP]Defense: 7 [0EP]Size: Gargantuan [3EP]Speed: Flight 5 (500 MPH) [5EP]Strength: 55 [9EP]Toughness: 5 [0EP]Features [8EP] Communications Computer Fire Prevention System Infirmary Laboratory Library Navigation System 2
