"Conquer the air with the Airspeeder."

- electionis

T-47 Airspeeder, a.k.a Snowspeeder, is a vehicle that has a repulsor to glide over the planetary surface under harsh conditions. Its anti-gravity function is extremely superior, but of course it's no match for X-wing. Nevertheless, it does its job pretty decently. You can use this vehicle to travel from POI A to POI B in Starfield in seconds.

================

▶ standalone

▶ Enjoy the accelerated atmospheric flight.

▶ The boost is infinite and continuous whether horizontal or vertical.

▶ The vertical cap gets removed for this vehicle only upon activation.

▶ Laser beam cannon deals more damage and ammo capacity doubled

▶ thrusts faster and glides longer with engine turned off in water

User manual

================

▶Activation: 

Stand right in front of the vehicle (strongly recommended) and activate the vehicle to enter.

▶Navigation: 

T-47 uses the same boost keys for forward (thrust) and upward (lift) movement.

I intentionally increased its vertical boost greatly in order to minimize the chance to accidentally fall onto the ground, so even gently pushing the "jump" key will make you stay airborne.

So, to initiate the flight, gently push the jump key and hold down sprint key immediately to move forward fast, which is the same as when using a boost pack.

To continue the flight, use the vertical boost whenever necessary to maintain the altitude while moving forward (keep holding down the sprint key to go faster)

So, from the side view, your vehicle will traverse the planetary surface drawing a sine or cosine graph (a wave form). As of today, I can say it's essentially a superior hovercraft. However, I meticulously and painstakingly calibrated the vehicle parameters through numerous attempts and experiments in order to give it a feel more of a fighter jet rather than of a chopper.

You can go as high as you want using vertical boost, but definitely will bump into a limit or a glitch water surface (
