Slamming it into reversee helps. But then I can hear (in my head) Hicks shouting "Tyres! You've blown the transaxle! Ease down! Ease down... ease down...".

Yes, this too, which is also easy to do with the pitch axis on the stick.
Reminds me of an old joke about a new driver wanting to go faster and shifting into "R" for "Race"...
Funny you should mention that.
Last week I was headed out in my Cutter to mine some Platinum. As the ship exited the station, there was an advertising sign on the right that said:
DON'T FORGET YOUR LIMPETS!
Cleared the auto-launch area, redocked and bought limpets.
Good for you that you took heed!
I am so accustomed to that flashing banner that I forget my limpets while blankly staring at it every time!
Made my first carpet kaleidoscope out of a scav. They tried to run but... how heavy is the Scorpion anyway?
I much prefer the long-range rifle though. An unshielded scav goes down in one shot and they don't even know they've been hit.

I think it is a fair bet you would at least have to leave and return to the system for the instance to reload. As best as I can remember the conflict zones have always gone overnight. I don't play all night although I've played unitil 1am or so a few times.
I've gone to fight Thargoids and forgotten my limpets...that scenario is life or death...
Oh, I've never ever done than mining Monazite.
It was Musgravite
And I've only ever forgotten limpets 3 times....
Edit: loving the industrial look on the Python there. Spot on
i do this like every other day.
I mean, i take of, then i remember "Limpets!" $%#$%, request docking permission, land etc. And this is never fast enough while flying a Cutter
Once i did it after jumping from a nearby system to Hip22460... so i had to fly to Bright Sentinel, get limpets and pop in one of the nearby CZ
When desperate, I tend to synth a batch, only to have a Scout pop out of nowhere to attack me the moment the limpet attaches to my ship, destroying it.
Hmm, that hazard pack from industrial sales reminds me that gas hauler on Rocinante 
Well, I've gone and done it again. (Blown a bunch of money, that is.) But reading about it, I just had to have one.
For me its ALWAYS when I'm in the fight and need to repair...but my current build is sans repair adn I use heat to decon now...
Yeah that's expensive though when compared to other synths, like basic synthing an entire SRV hull is much cheaper IIRC.When desperate, I tend to synth a batch, only to have a Scout pop out of nowhere to attack me the moment the limpet attaches to my ship, destroying it.
People complain about its lack of agility, however if you fly it right after a T9, it will feel like the nimblest ship you've ever flown!
I love flying it, especially through the mail-slot.
I got the Hazard kit for my T-6 which was built for Guardian site raiding. (and it has a build that i'm really proud off making use of the hot Colonia bridge FSD, but without toasting when engaging the fsd and a really clever set of power priorities)
I cant wait to test those flood lights in a dark site

Yer Joe King, right?
Meanwhile, back in the bubble..
I had almost a week off due to some computer maintenance and rearrangements. Pros and cons I guess. Ultimately, I'm looking forward to further overcompensating for such an unrequested intrusion of plain reality, this weekend, by playing plenty.
In fact, I'm running on a gtx 1660 for now instead of rtx 2080 - so it also stands to reason I must play more to really spend the same total amount of important graphical computation.
Ammonia worlds are rare? I know I've found more ELW than Ammonia worlds on this trip. I wonder how rare an Ammonia moon is with rings? Perhaps a large payout for it?Meanwhile, back in the bubble..

Why are so many on-foot missions on the dark side of the planet?
They're supposed to be about as rare/common as ELWs.
Alas, no rarity bonus for the exceptional ones either, like ringed AM or ELM.
