Drilling Crane

Who need drilling ships when you can do it the old fashion way?!
Was inspired by some of the wild rotor assemblys I saw in the workshop, and got the idea of making this, and it actually works!

Instructions (each step is illustrated in the screenshots)
1. Turn on drill, go to the drills and find the terminal on one of the generators and turn drills on.
2. Go to the terminal on the base of the rotating platform and turn the rotor that says wheel. (This one moves the drillhead back and forward, don't use too much speed to avoid braking it)
3. Walk/Flyy to the top of the stairs up to the cockpit. By moving your mouse up and down you move the crain up and down, you rotate using the Q and E Keys. You must adjust your view to look up a bit :)

** BIG UPDATE **
With the new updates to the game I was finally able to make this the way I wanted.
You can fly around with it, deploy landing gear, attatch to an asteroid or ship.

Landing instructions:
1. Unlock crane and turn on the Drill Wheel to unfold the crane arm.
2. Head to the crane cockpit under the yellow light and lift the crane arm up until it's high enough to land.
3. Lock crane to avoid movement during landing.
4. Deploy landing gear (reverse rotors) and use thrusters to land. If the surface is rough go to Landing Gear (locks) and turn on auto lock.
5. Reverse the rotors again once you are almost touching the ground. Once all landing gears are locked you can turn off the Rotors.
6. Head to the crain cockpit, unlock crane, start drills and drill rotation.
7. Start working.

Have fun!
