I've also taken a liking to B rated controllers for Titan salvage activities (including pod recovery at active/exploding ones) because of their higher range. They also match well with the Ops multi-limpet controller... which I assume uses B rated stats for the ones that it throws out.

I think that depends on the size of the controller, I use a 7A on my laser miners and they have the range and life of other a rated collectors.

Edit, that's on my T9's

Afaik limpet range depends on both the class and the size, so a 7A universal should have the same stats as a 7A collector when deployed with that function. (But multi-limpet controllers are actually terrible at displaying their stats as they are, because only the highest ones are listed... eg 3C mining-multi shows prospector stats only, not those of the collector.)

7A Universal limpets give 5A Collectors; in general the next-lower limpet class with the same rating, but with the strange exception of the 3C Xeno limpet having a 3E Decontamination which repairs more quickly than its 1C Repair, albeit for lower duration. Multi-limpets for Research also act more slowly than 1E Research, perhaps as if they count as multi-target.

Similarly—

The 3B Operations should give 1B Collectors, which still have a quite small bit more range than a 3A Collector, although less than a 3B Collector. The price for having four Limpets from one module!

Fair enough, but it still appears to be enough that I don't notice any particular discrepancy, whereas I did distinctly notice having to move away further from the Titan when using the mining multi-limpet (before seeing the advice around the forum to use 3B Operations, which has largely eliminated that 'issue' for my setup on a Krait).

... it would be nice to actually be able to view the stats of all the limpet types of the controller [in-game], instead of it displaying either the relatively unhelpful max limpet stat of any given type present, or a mish mash of stats with no relation to each other.
 
Aren't foreign words often just transliterated into a language if an equivalent doesn't already exist in the language in question?
It depends on the language.

The problem with defending the purity of the English language is that English is about as pure as a cribhouse w<censored>e. We don't just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.​

 
As I always enjoy advocating, try the 3B collector! It has much extra range at cost of limpet longevity, and happens to be the same mass and lower power. The range is particularly nice for various corrosive items, especially if they come from destroyed Interceptors or from the ground at a Spire site!
That's a really good tip, thanks!
 
I'm I wrong? Finished goal in the 50%, received the 18M reward but only one cargo rack. Should have received two racks or I'm I wrong?
 
For a bit of insight regarding the reward versus the percentile band, the top 50% reward was 18 million credits for a few days while the mission was at Tier 6. The rewards increased upon reaching Tier 7, and it so happens that the Tier 7 top 75% reward matches the Tier 6 top 50% reward, which is where some confusion may arise!

Hi there,
Unfortunately only have the Inara registration of the 18M. Sorry for the big image.
I only saw that I was in the 50% when I finished goal. Didn´t capture any image...
