Asp fuel.

[Altissimus]

Station fuel costs a bomb and fuel scooping takes ages.

Which do you do?

 

[bazzaman]

It's adequate in a class 3 scoop >130/s,

 

[Riepah]

I've barely used my Asp so far, but I go with scooping.

 

[Altissimus]

In related news, a Class 2 scoop takes ~5 mins to fill from empty.

I just sold my scoop and fitted more cargo space.

 

[Nutter]

I Honestly can't remember the last time I paid for fuel! A3 Scoop here

Oh and A3 Scoop, scoops at 176

 

[Commander Jared]

A3 scoop all day in the Asp. A2 in the Cobra.

 

[Jockey79]

My asp is set for 120 cargo hold, I'd lose money if I had a scoop.
(This does not cover the lost time spent scooping which I could be doing trade runs)

This some more. With the kind of money you can make trading with an Asp, buying fuel becomes trivial

 

[Ravenov]

For trade runs, buy from allied station (for discounted fuel) ... for exploration i fit a class 6 scoop and hoover it up industrial style.

At the moment I am doing a little Hauling in my Asp..

I know Hauling in an ASP! you may should, but I make money hauling and bounty hunting. I was thinking of using a fuel scoop, as I did on my Cobra, but If I was going to use a fuel scoop I think I will pay for something nice, A or B rating will do me, not interested in Flow per second as its going to be over 100 anyway. Once I have this ship kitted out I'll fly to the edges of the known universe and get high on the Nitro-oxide lol lol lol lol lol

 

[KillaALF]

For every day use = A3, for exploring = A5. If I'm in the mood for trading, I switch to the T6 (104T) without a scoop, but the biggest tank.

 

[Pete]

Everyday use, I was buying the fuel, for exploring I fitted an A5 scoop. During my trip out to uninhabited space I found a station selling an A6 scoop, but that cost 25 Million, and that seemed a little excessive for fuel scooping.

An A5 fills it plenty fast enough for exploration purposes.

Just wait til you get to the Python. Crazy fuel bills.

Not with a big fuel scoop it isnt

 

[Dabba]

Not with a big fuel scoop it isnt

Well of course there is only a bill if youre paying for your fuel. I use a 3A on my Python and it more than gets the job done, but man if I wasnt it would be crazy. Like 9k per 15ly jump.

 

[HeavyGroovez]

On the big ships fuel scoops are mandatory.

An A5 is pretty good but i generally use a B6 which gives me 752/sec

 

[ACenterForAnts]

Get a better scoop!

An A4 scoop will fill your tanks in no time whist you survey the system

Assuming you're surveying. Not so good if you're hauling.

Station, always station.
