1/24 Hexa Gear Alternative Messer Float

The Messer Float is a small unmanned HexaGear developed by the military complex MSG.

It has much in common with Sneak Sites, which are also classified as alternatives, in that it does not have an independent control device inside, and is remotely controlled via the control mother machine, and that it is an ornithopter that flies by flapping its wings. Beyond that, its characteristics as a flying object are very different.

A total of four extremely thin and tough wings, one large pair and one small pair, reciprocate at high speed, and by directing the generated thrust independently, you can freely move and rotate from a stationary position in the air to front and back, left and right, up and down.

It can fly and move at high speed even on narrow and complicated routes such as jungles and tunnels. The special optical sensor on its head combines a large number of elements to obtain a high-definition view even during flight, and controls the attitude of the aircraft using the crown acceleration sensor. The abdominal hexagram storage, designed for constant powered flight, has a plasma torch installed at the tip, used for cutting and welding metal structures.

This equipment features high energy efficiency, and is sometimes used by Governors as a sword. The two pairs of limbs have sharp hooks at the tips to carry cargo and personnel in a hugging manner, and can be used as anchors to fix the aircraft to walls or ceilings. Each of the above units is driven by supple artificial muscles derived from the third-generation HexaGear, and can handle a limited number of battles.

It is mainly used for reconnaissance in the Variant Force, and has become indispensable for field forces, being used as patrols around the outer edge of camp and acting as a repellent ahead of advancing troops, and is also in use by engineers.

Since Messer Float is also useful for facility maintenance and security, its use is rapidly spreading to the general population.
