	Kwenn's Lexicon - repulsorlift (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Repulsorlifts provided craft with the capacity to fly in atmosphere, a few centimetres from the ground or miles into the air.
		Repulsorlifts were a common sight across the galaxy, with most citizens taking the devices for granted.
		The effect of a repulsorlift could be controlled, with the user being able to set a 'flight ceiling' for the maximum height the repulsor-equipped object could reach.

	Repulsorlift - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A repulsorlift is an anti-gravity technology in the fictional Star Wars universe, capable of levitating any object to which it is applied.
		Repulsorlifts are usually assembled in arrays or clusters.
		In large ships, the repulsorlift is powered by an antigrav generator.

		Repulsorlifts require an intake of air in order to cool themselves down and cannot be operated in an area without this for an extended period of time without significant modification prior to use.
		All landspeeders have repulsorlifts that will only lift them about a meter off the ground because (as their name states) they are made for traversing land and do not need to rise any further from the ground than to avoid the most common debris and natural obstacles.
		Repulsorlifts are also used to move heavy cargo in and out of ships as well as move people and droids around otherwise inaccessible areas, should their occupation require it.

	Talk:Repulsorlift - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Star Wars Databank entry on the subject ( [1] and [2]) seem to flatly contradict large parts of this article.
		In particular the claim that the repulsorlift is useless in zero-g environments is inconsistent with the Death Star using them for propulsion.
		There were no repulsorlifts on the Death Stars, only sub-light engines and hyperdrives in those areas.

		Heavy weapons repulsorlift squads are those which have additional armaments built into their vehicles, most often dismount weapons such as a heavy repeating blaster, a Merr-Sonn 4.4 grenade launcher or even a light laser cannon, which may be dismounted by infantry and used when really heavy firepower is needed.
		Repulsorlift HQ has 18 repulsorlifts to move everyone in HQ, one of which is crewed by the major and staff officers, another by the battalion captain and staff officers plus a sergeant driver.
		Repulsorlift battalions are most commonly used to gather information on the enemy's movements, cut off enemy retreats, disrupt supply lines, harass enemy movement, and take lightly defended resources away from the main theater of operations.

	Star Wars: Databank \| repulsorlift
		A repulsorlift is a type of antigravity engine that allows vehicles and vessels to push against gravity fields, providing flight.
		Efficient and inexpensive, repulsorlifts provide propulsion to a wide variety of craft -- from the tiny STAP s used by Trade Federation battle droid s, to the immense sail barge employed by Jabba the Hutt.
		Repulsorlifts are so efficient that they are rarely ever shut off -- even when powered down, a landspeeder continues to hover off the ground.

		Unlike most air traffic on Coruscant, which is restricted to the preprogrammed flight paths of the autonavigation lanes, the air taxis are allowed to travel in "free space," meaning that they are free to travel through the planet's skies along any path the pilot chooses to follow.
		The air taxi has a revolutionary repulsorlift system that is not only extremely efficient, but gives the vehicle an amazing flight ceiling and an impressive degree of control in the hands of a trained pilot.
		For a pilot to rate a "free space" classification on his operating license, the pilot must be trained to use the vehicle's impressive onboard comm and sensor systems to constantly monitor all surrounding traffic...all while flying the tiny craft at the very edge of its capabilities.

	From here to there and back again : Hyperspace travel
		Repulsorlift is the same thing as anti-gravity and works by neutralising Higgs bosons (the sub-atomic particles responsible for giving particles mass).
		Using repulsorlift technology there is no problem in suddenly accelerating yourself to near light speed, the real technological breakthrough is in using a stasis field to overcome the massive G-forces you’d otherwise be subject to.
		As soon as you re-enter real-space you need to engage the repulsorlift to slow you down and at the same time also re-create a stasis field to protect you from the massive deceleration.

	The Rebellion
		Although Kalista-Equitar has moved into mass-market manufacturing of quality repulsorlifts and ground craft, the founders are well aware of their roots and continue to take private contracts for unique and original designs.
		The Ronto's cockpit is fully-enclosed by its streamlined hull.
		Access is gained through one of two sliding doors, and two large repulsorlift engines run the length of the vehicle on either side.

	Star Wars Artillery
		However, it is noteworthy that the two self-propelled guns known to exist are both heavily armoured and shielded repulsorlift platforms, which obviously use altitude in order to compensate for the limitations of "line of sight" targeting.
		However, it is possible to equip WW-676 repulsorlift platforms with heavy automatic weapons such as E-Webs for defense, which would be analogous to real-life vehicles such as the Land Rover Defender SOV (special operations vehicle).
		The MAS-2xB is an enormous repulsorlift vehicle that is over twice the size of an Imperial walker, with massive 2m thick armour and multiple shield generators.

	Vehicles
		Most skiffs utilize a single repulsorlift engine for propulsion, and are controlled by a pair of steering vanes connected to the rear of the hull.
		The Gian speeder is a repulsorlift vehicle used by Naboo's volunteer security force for crowd control and urban defense.
		The key to the skyhopper's high-altitude performance is the marriage of efficient twin DCJ-45 repulsorlift engines for lift and an Incom E-16/x ion engine for thrust.

	Fly Eye
		The tiny spherical body is mainly made up of a remarkably quiet repulsorlift engine, that is capable of giving the droid a maximum foward speed of ten kilometers per hour and a flight ceiling of nine meters.
		The repulsorlift engine gets quiet hot after extended use, so four wide venting ports are necessary to keep the droid delicate internal gears from frying under the extreme tempature.
		Every little space inside the droid that isn't taken up by the repulsorlift engine is used by the droids high-imaging holographic lens and coded transmission circuitry.

	Star Wars Armour
		Moreover, repulsorlift vehicles apparently cannot move through the semi-permeable theatre shields employed by ground armies such as the Rebels or the Gungans.
		These vehicles are repulsorlift tanks, and although it might be tempting to assume that they fall under the category of "battle droids", they appeared to be fully capable of supporting human crews as well.
		Repulsorlift towed artillery wouldn't suffer from this problem since it sits on the ground once deployed, but repulsor tanks and repulsor artillery will definitely have a poorer rate of fire than vehicles which are stabilized on solid ground, such as the AT-AT.

	Star Wars Technology
		The scientists of these early civilizations might decry the wonders of hyperdrive and repulsorlift drive as "impossible", obviously not realizing that, just because something is not understood, it is not Impossible.
		Repulsorlift drives are the most common form of antigravity drive.
		Repulsorlifts use power supplied by a fusion reactor to create an antigravity field which repels against a planet's gravity.

	Hyperfoil 1000
		The Hyperfoil 1000 combine the repulsorlift drive systems with the latest in hovercraft technology.
		The hyperfoil uses hover engine lifters and repulsorlift boosters to provide a smooth, comfortable vertical lift off up to 50 meters in height.
		Once clear of ordinary obstructions, the hyperfoil switches propulsion systems, relying on a more standard repulsorlift generator, with assistance from the hover generators for smoother flight over rough terrain or during sudden manuvers.

	Kathol Sector Planet
		Kolatill is one of the major repulsorlift manufacturing centers in Kathol Sector.
		The world has a high degree of axial tilt, resulting in extreme seasonal changes; the frigid winters last nearly five standard months in all but the equatorial regions, while the sweltering summers last as long and are just as unpleasant.
		The major population centers are in the northern continental mountain chains centered around the mining complexes and repulsorlift manufacturing plants.

	Star Wars-Other Ships Speeders-Swoop at Galactic Voyage
		Considered crude and noisy, swoops are often nothing more than large repulsorlift engines with seats, capable of reaching 650 kilometers per hour.
		Most swoops consist of a lightweight alloy frame surrounding powerful ion and repulsorlift engines, with only a seat and simple controls added to this crude design.
		The maneuvering flaps and control vanes used to steer the craft are adjusted by controls in the hand grips, but the pilot must also shift his weight in order to make tight turns.

	Even More Aliens!
		Acute Repulsor Sensitivity-Garral ears are particularly sensitive to the sounds of repulsorlift machinery.
		If fighting near a repulsorlift, a garral goes into a killing frenzy, attacking any living or moving thing it doesn't recognize.
		Because of this tendency, garrals are not used in outposts equipped with repulsorlift vehicles.
