Until spacelegs become a reality

Maybe FDev can release something like this so we can go buzzing around on planets. No weapons and just a simple scanner with a ship dispatch and recall control.

Hum. No cargo hold. No weapons. But looks cool.

Surely we get the Chuck Norris Weapon bike, just hovering version

Yep, no weapons, no cargo hold, no flight assist.. just sensors, fuel gauge, ship dismiss and recall and probably a comm panel. Canyon racing at it's finest.

I see this as something useful with spacelegs. It would create too many problems without (
- what about life support?
- what happens if you hit your head on the surface after a somersault? Is the SRV-bubble not more secure?
- is the tank as big as in the SRV? If synthesis is possible, would you be stranded if you can't reach the ship and there are no weapons to get more materials?
- will skimmer attack it?
- can it access terminals?
-...
)

But the idea to have an even smaller Vehicle (since it probably can't get bigger due to the size of the cargo hatch) is certainly interesting. Not every new interactive tool needs to have a justification through gameplay (but it does help to allocate development resources).

Only if this is the BG music playing while we are riding it.
