This is an improved version of my first flying saucer on SR2. You can use it to fly to and land on any planet in record time. It has a hover mode, normal thrusters, and 6 superpowered thrusters that can be activated for incredible speeds. It flies perfectly straight and can reach seemingly infinite speeds. It can also maneuver well on both land and in the water (to depths up to 19m), making it perfect for any mission.
Controls:
Activate translation mode to move!
AG-1 + thrust: Activates Hover Mode
AG-2: Activates superpowered thrusters 1
AG-3: Activates superpowered thrusters 2
AG-4: Activates superpowered thrusters 3
AG-5: Activates superpowered thrusters 4
AG-6: Activates superpowered thrusters 5
AG-7: Activates superpowered thrusters 6
Activate Translation mode to move!
Up arrow: move up
Down arrow: move down
R arrow: move forward
L arrow: move backward
Yaw L: move L
Yaw R: move R
I would recommend activating hover mode only after you are in the air (or in water) otherwise you may drift back very slowly, which may or may not be mildly annoying depending on what your mission is.

@pedro16797 I downloaded your submersible sea dragon test and am pretty impressed. I am going to try to incorporate that technique into my flying saucer version 3.0, any other ideas on improvements? Also, do you know if it is possible to set the camera to start on certain parts of a craft? I know you can change it midflight

@DaBears it seems to be harcoded, changing radius and sea level doesn't change the 20m limit, the only workaround is what I posted today in the submersible sea dragon test: adding weight in a part at Y:9999 to push the center of mass up, but this causes lots of problems
