Its a little deceptive. It doesn't feel as snappy to move as an eagle, but its a much larger ship. Most ships have a preferred movement,maybe that it pitches or yaws or rolls better on one axis than on the other axises. The clipper seems to not have a bad axis. It seems very balanced. I am really just getting used to it so only time will tell, but as it stands, It FEELS very maneuverable considering its size.
I will take it into a fight later today and get a better feel.

It doesn't have the power issues that the Vulture has. I originally slapped 4 beams on it and with an A rated power plant I was still able to run 4 A rated Shield boosters and was just Barely over 100. (C shields, A FSD, D Everything else). I have since dropped on Booster for a KWS. I am running Gimbaled due to the placement of the weapons, but I want to see what the cannons do. I wanted PA's but they are only fixed and the lower placements are a little wide for my taste. Maybe after I get used to it.

I can see why so many people use it. Here is my Current Build. I will probably change it as I learn how to use it effectively.

Going senile.

Last night, I was punting about in a RES and went to check my modules to see how many shield cells I had left - but one of the modules had disappeared! I tried switching to other displays to force a refresh, jumping in and out of SC, firing one just to see if that updates the display and even logging out and back in. Decided it was time to submit a ticket, but my last one took four months to yield a response so I wasn't goeing to get it resolved any time soon.

Went to the station to see if it appeared in the list there, or if the space was just empty. Turns out there was a 2T cargo bay in that slot that I forgot I bought.

Just showed my wife " Angelica " and she renamed her. "Angel Dust" so I will call her PCP for short.

Currently docked in Lombardelli's Legacy. A LOT of CMDRs seem to be just waiting for the Imperial bounty CG to end for the bonus creds.

I just logged back in to see if it was completed and picked up my 20 mil credit payday :D

Glad to see I didn't get knocked a tier down in this one.

just roving about in my dropship getting in random trouble. Why a dropship? Because she flies and I love her.
