Previously Submitted? Yes / Alex has his own version of this, and this is something that I've been working on too. I finally got around to getting my version to come together. Instead of overwriting his I decided to submit it as a separate thing.

Notes:
 
This suggestion has been implemented. Votes are no longer accepted.
Sorry it's taken so long, but I need to ask a few things. Is this capable of flight in atmosphere? I see a sublight speed for what I assume is space use, but nothing for planetary flight. Also, what kind of shielding does it use? Gravitational or magnetic perhaps?
 
I added a value for planetary flight ( Mach .9) that should be below what is acceptable. I originally left that off because I didn't think we had rules for atmospheric flight so I'd rather just not mention it than give it some absurdly high value to keep pace with other submissions.

I also added in that the barrier specifically is an electrostatic field and a bit of anti-gravity.
 
I'm sorry for the wait - I didn't push the 'watch thread' button by accident. XD

Overall, the article looks good to go now, but one thing confuses me; if losing one movement pad forces it to drive on the ground, what happens if it loses two? Wouldn't that immobilize it sooner, especially if both are on the same side?
 
I figure the wheels and anti-gravity engines are strong enough to still push it around on the ground if it loses two pads.

It would just end up dragging whatever stumps of legs it has left along the ground.
