L3 FSD range.

I doubt that you'll notice any different to maneuverability from the additional mass. I've been playing with several things on the Vette and Python that add significant mass, and the pitch/roll/yaw rates as well as cruise/boost speeds are barely impacted at all.

I don't think so either JL. I did put some (lots) of Hull Reinforcement on a Viper III once and it handled like a pig but now I'm wondering if it was all in my mind lol

I just dropped into the Trade CG at Whitson Orbital. There were seven CMDRs in the station when I arrived. It's been a while since I've seen that many at once.

I plan to mess around at both the Trade & Bounty CGs for a while, then maybe drop in at Azrael.

Moving house.
To a Federation system so that I can rank up with the Feds. Decided to pick H Draconis. Cause it sounds cool.

Obvious, stupid move of this whole thing? As I was shedding things to lighten my Anaconda ... I forgot to remove the freak'n, 20t, Class 5 A-spec Life Support! Duh! That would have been good for +1-2ly more.

Sigh ...


At least I'm not the only one that does things like that. :lol:
I cut so much other weight ... and forgot that!

If I keep it up, the A-team might want me. ;)

Ive returned. Been away since March as thats motorcycling season and I ride bikes, so track days and overseas blasts aplenty. :) Only for my PC to cry Ive had enough, fall over and sink into the swamp. So finally I return with a new PC, back into the void. No Robigo smuggling missions? They were ace fun. Nerfed. Nuts. Skimmers now. Had a go...yawn...but we have passenger missions now...I stole a london bus once but thats another story. So whats the danger these days?
