I tried to price it between jetpack and a drone fighter due to speed and stealth qualities, and then added 7 due to the Autopilot and Self destruct mechanism costs. without the Gadgets I had priced it at about 10 GP. I see your point regarding the limited use perhaps offsetting the Gadget cost. Since there wasn't any guidelines on approximately what the qualities cost as well it was a bit difficult <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />. I also based the GP cost so high since I figured most agents would end up trashing this expensive piece of Agency kit if they are anything like Bond and his watches or cars <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> haha. If your experience thinks it should be lower I can see it being set at 10-12 if you think the limited use offsets the gadets. What do you think about the 15 minute limit... too short? I was thinking even up to 30 mins (15 in to drop zone, 15 back)?Ok, Continuing... I did tag it as a Fixed Wing Air Vehicle <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />. The reason I chose this was based on the fact that Personal vehicles are guided by Balance and Dexterity, whearas the Switchblade is much more like a regular aircraft with it's sweep wings and engine.OPT... whoops, that will teach me to skim entries! I will definately set it as OPT (50%)Handling. I used the fighter stats and jetpack as rough guidelines, and put a thumb to the air on that. I'll keep it at 10 for now but might change if feedback indicates it is too high.  I wouldn't likely drop it below 8 or nine based on the handling of a jetpack for example <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Write-up.... Thanks for pointing that out. added it in. I'll repost the modifications. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />-Will</blockquote>
