Repulsor

The Repulsor is based on far future scifi lifting thrust.

The repulsor has only half the thrust of an ion thruster of the same size, but has 20x dampening effect. The advantages it gives are offset by having double the power use of an ion thruster.

This makes for ships that fly differently than vanilla ships. It can lift heavy ships, but is generally incapable of vertical take off. Generally this means that all flight needs to be done in a forward motion moving at careful inclines to gain altitude. The dampening multiplier also improves the turn radius of ships, which permits maneuvering to behave similar to aeronautical dog-fighting.

Known Issues
As of 8/17/2017 the Repulsors are only committing 10% the thrust of an Ion Thruster for a total of 2x an Ion Thruster to Dampening effect.

The Heavy Repulsor is 10x as powerful as the Repulsor, it does not provide half the thrust of a Large Ion Thruster.
