boys (and girls) and their toys | the sensoriums [closed]

[Closed to the mechanics and engineers who are going to be involved in the Great Rogue Upgrade project. see this com post.]

The sensoriums had been set to look like an empty hangar in which a couple X-Wings sat. Tycho had no idea what else the engineers would need for their initial planing phase, but he figured whatever it was, they could tell the sensorium to create it themselves.

He conjured himself up a crate to sit on, and scrolled through some squadron numbers on his datapad as he waited for everyone to arrive.

Shinn grumped.

"All right," he nodded, though he wasn't exactly sure how that would work according to the laws of physics.

"One other thing: Even if the combat speeds are within reach... the cruising speed of the X-Wings is much, much higher than anything we have - we're nowhere close. If we have to fly long ranges, we'll never catch up. Do we have any plans to cover something like that?"

That said, he didn't think that they would be flying far from Stacy, but it never hurt to plan.

Wyn is a mad scientist; the laws of physics are mostly optional when she builds things.

"I'm not sure how much long-distance flying the squadron will actually be doing, but in case you do, we could try and make some sort of booster-engine system, maybe. I'm open to suggestions, though." Wyn says after a moment.

Shinn glanced at Kira. "That's fine. He probably has specs for them already."

Kira met Shinn's glance, knowing what he was thinking. "Building full-fledged METEORs might be a bit much for what we have," he admitted - though he'd have to check if they had any in storage - "But we might be able to retool something from the blueprints."
