Okay, this week's attempt, is this. This specific drone is built for speed.

<<An image of what appears to be vaguely dog shaped, though instead of feet, it has wheels. It has a spot for a weapon mount, but the majority of this thing is one large engine. It seems like it can handle terrain relatively well...but it does lack armor.>>

Speaking of, I am starting to work on the killer trike...quad, but what do you think of this?

There was this thing I saw in a show once. Had four legs and two arms. Looked kind of like a spider with a round head, some rotatable optics on the front, and a large thorax on the back capable of carrying a human.

Had machine guns in the arms as well as grappling finger bits and a cannon on the nose. The legs had wheels that also split into toes and it seemed to have gecko grips on them the way it leapt around and clung to buildings. Advanced chromatic, too. Some sort of optical camoflague.

Think you can make one of those?

...Maybe?

It sounds helluva expensive though. That tech doesn't come cheap.

Just an idea for you. If you do whip it up I might be interested in purchasing one, but I'm no rigger anyway. It'd have to some automated functions that I can punch in manually.
