Ships Can't boost with my Clipper

[Thrawn29]

Hi all,

I just bought a Clipper and i want to start exploration session with her.
I know boost is useless for exploration but when i'll go back from exploration i'd really like to be able to boost, in case i'm interdicted...

My problem is the boost always fails !!!
Insufficient energy in capacitator...

Here is my setup : http://www.edshipyard.com/#/L=703,mpW0Wg,2-4s7_7_8S5K8S6k,53w5lq7Q40M25DI05U2jw2UI
(i firstly equiped lower power plant, lower power distrib and lower thruster... but i increased all, just in case...)

Its your power distributor... class 3 is waaay to low for your clipper ... as the info states.. not enough energy in the capacitors... move up to class 6D .. if you can afford a clipper you can at least afford high class D equipment. ;-)

I'd recommend this build for a clipper: http://coriolis.io/outfit/imperial_clipper/03A5D5A5D6D5D4C----02----3e-48--2i2f.Iw18aQ==.Aw18aQ==

But I totally recommend ... try an Asp Explorer... ;-) at least 30ly jump range and a bit cheaper. ;-)

Thanks a lot for your reply SplashX2.

After numerous testing, i finally succeed to boost with my clipper.
You are right power distributor was too low, but i just moved to a 5D.
(just sad it is mentionned nowhere that i' won't be able to boost, but ok, at least i tested it)

(For info : Credit were not a problem, 60MCr remaining...
and... i had an ASP with 34LY jump range...
but... you know, an Imperial Baron needs to travel in something classy. )

Thanks again.

Outfiting screen actually warns you that you will be unable to boost:

My fault though...
I used the standard "Windows error message management process"... don't read and press confirm.

Thanks GammaZ.
