That's a nice setup.

Agreed. I solved it by placing three pieces of velcro (industrial, double sided plastic type) to it and to my desk. I did the same to the stick as I found the base to be too small and it tilted when in my typical frantic "Oh my god I'm gonna die!" PvP fightsI felt the T16000 was a bit "lite" - when pushing the thruster forward I'd often move the entire unit.
Consider the difference between a thruster that works on an axis and one that slides - if you get one that slides you may need to secure it.
Actually I'm with Feros on this one... Zarek Null is my Overlord, he brings order to this mad galaxy.
He will take care of your self-destruction-madness soon, too.

I wonder if I should upload yesterday's training session with Loren's Reapers?
Carcosa Gimbal Scrub Shenanigans Episode I - A Fer-de-Lance Menace?
Any ideas where to upload? Youtube?
I rewatched the two fights yesterday and while I was pretty proud of beating you both, I was astonished how much more efficient I could get if I *** hit anything at all with my *** rail or if I did some more/better pip management.Kari suggested Google Drive the other day. I'd like to upload and post here but I'm not sure if I could avoid swearing. Too amusing.

I'm open for a rematch, I need the training anyways.I still want that mirror rematch.
But yeah, PIPs make all the difference. My fight with Ren got a lot better as the rust was knocked off. PIP management was looking pretty good at the end, though unfortunately it didn't record the whole fight.
Our fight was me messing up that bank by waiting too long to pop it and not enough good shooting for sure.

I'm theorycrafting my Courier, hope to have the improvements online by tonight
What is the spec of your FDL @Phisto Sobanii ?
Still chuckling...
Out of curiosity, do you use your FDL for PvP or also that rather peculiar DBX?
@Ian Skippy - what Phisto means is me (and @Wargfoot if we can entice him out here...)Only the second or third time in my career I've brought the DBX out for PvP. It's the only small ship I have in Colonia so I'm messing around with different loadouts and configurations. I think it'll be a more worthwhile ship for sparring with newer people than some overpowered monstrosity.
Now I'm sad Phisto ganked you first@Ian Skippy - what Phisto means is me (and @Wargfoot if we can entice him out here...)
My little Courier lasted around 30 secs against his FDL!
(but I'd chosen 50% hull as I had no idea how the little one would stand up to human opposition - I was quite surprised!)
Don't worry - I've got my Interdictor aimed your wayNow I'm sad Phisto ganked you first
My Furry is as clean as its tactical ice paintjob.Don't worry - I've got my Interdictor aimed your way
(yummy bounty, I hear!)
I'm not scared of you I took out a Master Python on my way to visit Mel...My Furry is as clean as its tactical ice paintjob.
If you want to pick a fight with my Cutter though....

we shall seeYou'd be surprised how often I hear that. First time Yola and I sparred she said the same thing. People are more competent than they might realize! Sure, we're not going to be taking down the pros or anything but we're not helpless either.
Here's the ship I used: https://s.orbis.zone/39cv
Couple notes for you. It's a very straight forward FDL build. There are a few items I could optimize for competitive PvP (lighter sensors and life support, for example) but since I'm nearly always flying "in the wild" I don't completely min/max.
(I'm so killing BigMaec with this. )
