WHI - M2 Mining Drone

The M2 is a cheaper option to the M3 and a more effective miner than the M1. Its one large cargo container gives it a fair amount of storage for ore and the 2 tightly fitted drills gives good accuracy when mining specific ores. Should any stone be picked up the 6 small ejectors should take care of any unwanted materials. The compact design does leave less room for resisting or absorbing impact damage so any drone operator should keep that in mind while maneuvering through tight spaces as a broken thruster or container could cause a lot of issues.

Note: LCD's require scripts to be enabled in the world setting or they will not work.
