Description
FOR VERSION 1.3!

The Destructive Legion version of the iconic Eagle Transporter from Space: 1999.
It's in my opinion one of the coolest ship designs ever and reasonably plausible for its intended uses in the show.
It's a bit rough in places and definitely an approximation and not a 1:1 replica.

This is the type D version that is adapted for field diagnosis and treatment of injury or disease that may be encountered on a planet's surface or in deep space. Manned by medical personnel.

It's armed with one laser cannon under the nose.

It can fly on any map. Controlling it on a regular map takes a bit of practice and finesse but is possible as long as you don't try to get too fancy. Controlling it on the space map is less punishing but also requires a light touch on the controls.

Alt controls to fly.
W/S: Variable thrusters.
S: Brake thrusters.
A/D: Steering.
Up/Down arrow: Pitch.
Left/Right arrow. Roll.
PageUp/PageDown: Variable vertical thrusters. *
Num 5/Fire action 5: Powerful landing/emergency vertical thrusters. *
Num 1/ Fire action 1: Laser cannon.
L/Headlights: Ceiling lights.
B/Beacon: Search/landing lights.

* Tap, tap, tap is the way to go once wou've taken off, whether going up or down. It can be tricky to judge if and how fast you're going up or down (watch your vertical speed carefully), and if you're going too fast or going in for a landing using/tapping the Num 5 key is a good way to make sure you keep a decent descent speed.

I've built it for the Discord Spaceship Build Contest and the 3,000 brick limit means I can't really add too many greebles or nurnies (random decorative pieces).

Feel free to edit, but if you re-upload publically in any way please acknowledge the original creation and creator.

Have fun!
