Think i'm in agreement with RSL, the Dragonfly makes a lot of sense if you're wandering about on your own. Ive got both a Freelancer and a Cutlass and am looking to pick up the Dragonfly in a sale hopefully. It will fit in the back of both while hopefully not taking too much space. I appreciate both these ships work better with a 2nd person, but thats not insurmountable. My Cutlass is a Red however and I am hopeful I can strip out some of the beds and effectively have one side for cargo the other for med facilities - fingers crossed anyway!

That thing needs some serious dental work!

If I had a crystal ball, I wouldnt have put the post up. On the basis it might have something none of us know, then possibly it might be worth seeing?

Apologies if this is the wrong place, but potential new info coming ......

Piracy is an act of robbery or criminal violence by ship or boat-borne attackers upon another ship or a coastal area, typically with the goal of stealing cargo and other valuable items or properties. Those who engage in acts of piracy are called pirates. The earliest documented instances of piracy were in the 14th century BC, when the Sea Peoples, a group of ocean raiders, attacked the ships of the Aegean and Mediterranean civilizations. Narrow channels which funnel shipping into predictable routes have long created opportunities for piracy,[1] as well as for privateering and commerce raiding. Historic examples include the waters of Gibraltar, the Strait of Malacca, Madagascar, the Gulf of Aden, and the English Channel, whose geographic strictures facilitated pirate attacks.[2] A land-based parallel is the ambushing of travelers by bandits and brigands in highways and mountain passes.[3] Privateering uses similar methods to piracy, but the captain acts under orders of the state authorizing the capture of merchant ships belonging to an enemy nation, making it a legitimate form of war-like activity by non-state actors.[4] So says Wikipedia - Although this could only be the thin end of the wedge. I think at the right time it would be very useful to actually specify what practices are acceptable / tolerated within the Org. Handling stolen goods? Moving items from one place to another that are considered "dubious" by the relevent authority? Personally I plan on being an upstanding trader who specifically trades in heavily patrolled areas with plenty of security for preference.

All I would say from my own experience is that anything over 27" means you start having to move your head a lot - it gets tiring. I settled on a pair of Iiyama 27" GB2773HS. Lovely quality image at 1080 - not 4k, but they are 144Hz 1ms screens on a Display Port. Iiyama are frequently overlooked but they are solid and good quality. From experience the only screen ive experienced that comes close is a Samsung. I'm looking to put both mine onto a desk mount - to free up some desk space, but also raise them a bit more.

I bought the 3 pack. As a new player my aim was to use the stock and racer as LTi trade-ins for later ships. Ive already dropped the stock model for a Cutlass Red. Super write up and very informative - thanks.

I understand the 1080 isnt any better on benchmarking but the 1080 Ti will need to be saved for - hence the 1050 currently offloading the PhysX workload. Additionally the incoming 1080Ti would need new 4k screens - will need a while to upgrade! Windows on the M.2. Star Citizen on the SSD.
