Voyownik Posted March 2, 2019 Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 Hi I dont know if this was ever disscused or mentioned. I just thought of it and decided to create an account here. How is Mbot supposed to fly at mach 20 with a salvaged Poco's booster. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Invocation Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 It's not the booster that is limiting the Pocos from getting that fast, it's their building. They shake and rattle at Mag-7 and above, with Mag-10 being their capacity before they literally dissolve, if I'm remembering correctly. M-Bot is built significantly better than the Pocos, so he can handle those kinds of speeds. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adunsavior Posted March 4, 2019 Report Share Posted March 4, 2019 I think it's the atmosphere manipulator module thing. The force that slows the Poco down is the air resistance. If M-bot can more efficiently reduce the air resistance, then it can go faster. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like how in space you could theoretically accelerate to any speed if given enough time regardless of the thruster used, since their is virtually no air resistance, M-Bot can reach higher speeds with the same booster because he has the ability to ignore/displace air in the atmosphere to a much higher degree than any current DDF ships. All ships in the series are functionally flying through vacuum up until the point that their atomspheric scoops are pushed beyond their limits.
