I was just wondering,
Does anybody know what purpose the shoulder pads on the DYRL flight suit serve. There is like a dot beneath the pad that matches the helmet's main color, is that a sensor of some sort ?
Also, Is there a reason for the long lid over the pilot's eyes, wouldn't this impair the range of sight of the pilot ?. I noticed small laser tracking devices in Macross zero that are located in the lid to give heads up missile tracking capability to Roy, was there any reference to such a system in DYRL or the tv series that would explain such a long lid ?.
On more thing, when in battroid mode, what kind of controls are used to provide precise arm and leg movement. The joystick between to pilot's legs wouldn't be too appropriate to provide such control so is there a relation between the (?) sensors on the pilot's suit and battroid movement control ?.
Boy, I know this is a lot to ask but really, I've been asking myself the question for a while so please Macross gurus, enlighten me.
Thanks
