C6 fsd in a python...what's the range?

Wondering if anyone knows what the range would be if you fitted a Python with a c6 fsd.
No reason, just curious if there is a way to work it out

I'm a bit bored at work, so I'll have a go:
2A gets you 1.88 ly
3A gets you 3.71 ly
4A gets you 13.75 ly
5A gets you 28.56 ly

So I'd speculate and say somewhere around 40-42 if it could get a class 6A FSD.
It seems to be a bit of a curve that would trend back down after some time.
I wish I remembered more college math to have an idea how to plot those and get a function that would tell us!
Maybe someone with a bit fresher memory can help?

my python weighs in at around 713t unladden (5A FSD => 17.15ly). if i configure a conda to 713t then the jump range (unladden) is:
6A FSD => 30.44ly
6D FSD => 17.37ly
5A FSD => 17.65ly

im guessing this is how it works in general.

Cool thx
Anyone wana start a petition to have proper engineers that can rip out a class 6 slot to make room for a bigger fsd?:p
joking, I know that'll never happen.

Imagine tho
me - So dude I want a class 6 fsd drive in this thing
engineer - hum, wellll, could be done, but your gona loose a one of those class 6 mod slots and prolly have to cut into another to be honest.
me - ok, I can live with that, how much we talking here?
engineer - well, I'll have to work on her for a while to do this and prolly have to hire a crew to get it done...big job man this..
me - sure..but can we talk price please..
engineer - hummmm, wellll, 30 million down payment should cover the work, not the drive of course, infact you might see another 20 mill slapped onto that, no idea what issues we might have to overcome
me - ok, so if i give you 30 mill for the work, 18 for the drive and 10mill for incase tat, then we good yes?
engineer - sure, if your willing to pay then I can do the work no worries
me - awesum, heres the keys, I'll come back in a month to see how we doing?
engineer - right o chief, catch yer soon

actually i was wrong, the numbers are more like this:
python 713t (laden):
FSD 5A => 17.27ly

conda 713t (laden):
FSD 5A => 17.27ly
FSD 6D => 16.91ly
FSD 6C => 20.47ly
FSD 6A => 30.78ly

That starts getting silly - although if I could somehow stick a 7A FSD onto my Cobra (use duct tape maybe?) it would jump nearly 120ly at a time :eek:

Oh, how do you get coriolis to do theoretical builds?

It's easy...

http://coriolis.io/outfit/python/03A5D6A4D6D6D5C---------04044003---002h.Iw18eQ==.Aw18eQ==

If you look at the address for the quick build I threw together... you'll see, very clearly, "03A5D6A4D..."

Those relate to modules. Int his case, the 6A is the FSD. To know which is which, just change the module you want to change on Coriolis to 3A or 4a (or whatever) and you'll see it in the address bar. Then change it to whatever you want. BTW - CASE SENSITIVE!

Doesn't work for thrusters, sadly...

Edit - whoops, don't see the other post already detailing this.
