Those controlled by droids, such as the STAP-1 used by theTrade Federation and CIS, could reach speeds of up to 250 mph. Military STAPsare used for scouting, harassment and anti-personnel use due to their highspeeds, maneuverability and relative ease of use, and usually armed with twinrapid-fire anti-personnel weapons. STAPs are usually 1 square wide, 1 squarelong, typically 5 to 8 feet tall, provide one-tenths (1/10ths, typically zero)to one-quarter (1/4) cover to the pilot. Civilian STAPThis is a civilanSTAP used as a quick personal transport or racing. Able to reach altitudes of700 feet and reach speeds of 125 mph, but this requires the pilot to wearprotective gear and at higher altitudes an air supply. These STAPs come with asafety harness that is connected to a deadman switch that slows, stops andslowly lowers the STAP to the ground if the pilot suddenly lets go of thecontrols or leans too far from a standing position.Civilian STAPCrew: 1Passengers:0Cargo: 10lbsInit: +0Maneuver:+3Top Speed:215 (22)Defense: 10Hardness: 5Hit Points:20Size: MedPurchaseDC: 17Restriction: Lic(+1)Accessories:Safety Harness, headlights, radio, GPS, deadman switch (slows to a stop &hovers, slowly lowering to ground if user lets go of controls or falls overfrom standing position)Notes: STAP-1The STAP-1is the STAP used by the droid army of the Confederacy of Independent Systems,typically piloted by B1 battle droids. As the pilots are droids and are notsubject to G-Forces or need for air at high speeds and altitudes, the STAP-1 isfaster and can achieve higher altitudes than standard STAPs. Able to reachspeeds of up to 250 mph and altitudes of 1500 feet, armed with twin blasterrifles, it lacks any safety systems of most STAPs, but the foot rests, whichare also controls, can be magnetized to keep the droids in place. Any livingpilot using a STAP-1 will not be able to pilot it at full speed or max altitudeunless they are wearing protective gear, and helps if have boots that canmagnetize.STAP-1Crew: 1Passengers:0Cargo: 10lbsInit: +1Maneuver:+3Top Speed:440 (44)Defense: 10Hardness: 5Hit Points:20Size: MedPurchaseDC: 21Restriction: Mil(+3)Accessories:Headlights, military radio, GPS, magnetic foot rests, 2 fire-link blasterriflesNotes: Weapons[TABLE="width: 550"][TR][TD]  Weapon[/TD][TD]  Damage[/TD][TD]  Crit[/TD][TD]  Dam Type[/TD][TD]  Range  Incr[/TD][TD]  Rate of  Fire[/TD][TD]  Magazine[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]  Twin  Blaster Rifles[/TD][TD]  5d8[/TD][TD]  X20[/TD][TD]  Fire[/TD][TD]  100 ft[/TD][TD]  S, A[/TD][TD]  Unlimited[/TD][/TR][/TABLE]</blockquote>
