Seriously... this little ship is just so much fun to fly.

You great ship, but one question, with the power management you have, what happens when you activate the SCB? Dead in the water me thinks. You need to adjust that.

Nevermind, thought the SCB was powered off, it was the Fuel Scoop. DOH!

Codename: Phoenix -- this is one glowing bird is it? How long does it take to fire the PA when your Beams engage as well, five minutes? And it might be world class in self-inflicted temperature damage per shot ...?
Love it, will try it.

Being as the iEagle is so hard to hit with kinetics you might consider going with mirrored bulkheads like mine

I'm curious if that chaff has been doing you any good recently. I noticed there was a recent chaff bug where NPC's would ignore it.

Yeah...the chaff hasn't been as effective recently...but I haven't seen fit to swap out the utility slot for anything else, yet.

Hopefully that bug will get fixed soon enough. ;)

I have no idea why people are saying chaff doesn't work. It works fine for me. I faced three FAS last night in a wing and they all were running turreted beams. I had no issues chaffing them and handing them their turrets on a plate. The beams were hitting till I chaffed, then they started missing me. All of them. I had them all red (or in my case purple) and they were all close in and the chaff was doing what it does.

I am wondering if it is an issue on certain ships? My Vulture has no issues. My Cobra is Heatsinked for Smuggling, my other ships have chaff on a couple, including the iEagle and it seems to work fine on it as well. I may be wrong on the iEagle, but the Vulture definitely works.

I have no problems with the chaff on my Vulture either, nor on the FAS. Some shots go through from time to time, but they mostly do their job.

Hmm, sounds like I'll have to run some tests for myself on the chaff. Should be a good opportunity to break out the iEagle for a little play time. :)
