So I went to Y Canum Venaticorum, a carbon star close to the bubble for a passenger mission with my recently engineered Dolphin "Canapé Surfer", for a kind of a test drive...
Liked : supercruise handling, normal space speed and manoeuvrability, low fuel consumption.
Disliked : heat management, good but not extraordinary jumprange, average fuel scoop.
Also, a very small ship means a tiny cockpit ! The view throught the canopy is good, especially when looking upward, but not as wide as from an ASP or a DBX. I need to compare with a Beluga now.
A few pics of the star itself :
