The Flipper is a ship for hauling a single T10 asteroid, designed to be used in the safe zone. It flies in one direction to easily load the asteroid and then you can flip around and fly load in the opposite direction, still with decent speed. It has load automation to approach and load the asteroid as well as a material scanner that gives estimated credits for selling the asteroids.
The blueprint is provided for free. All feedback is welcome and in game tips (in-game name Egomaniac) are appreciated. However support will be limited but I will try my best.
Please give the ship a "like" if you use and enjoy the ship. Designed by EGOTech. Join the EGOTech Discord server.

I love it! Works great other than some odd pulling in random directions when the chair is facing away from the asteroid dock, not sure what's causing that.
