I know that active and non-active hired crew take a % of your profits, but if you switch to a ship with can't use hangers do they still take a cut?
Do hired crew still take a percentage when flying non-hanger ship?

It has been my experience that yes, they do. That lazy expert pilot was happily feeding off my bounties whilst I risked life and limb flying around killing pirates in an FDL.
I fired him immediately upon discovering this.

Yep they do. I just hired a novice one. SJA fixed the AI about being braindead on planets, so I figured I'd hire one instead of go without. Not sure how they'll do on a high G world though, but for low G they aren't boosting into the ground.
I'm doing the same. Finding a mostly harmless pilot and only hiring them. No point in hiring three.

I've tested an NPC driven Cutter on a 6G world.
I haven't been that brave yet.
Dakota (she's my crew member) has been treating my Anaconda well though.Okay thanks guys. Info much appreciated. +1.
I think I'll do the same and fire the crew. I don't use my Anaconda more than my FDL or Asp. Yeah I don't really get why anyone would hire 3 crew at the moment. Maybe for the next update, multi-crew? Even so 3 would be a hefty cut into profits.

How fast do they rank up?I haven't been that brave yet.
I don't really know. I got a fighter bay for exploration mainly. For combat, I'm usually in my Viper or FdL. I keep meaning to get an FGS but haven't gotten around to it yet.
I'm not sure if they follow CMDR kills ranking but after a test run at a Rez about 6-7 kills ranked my expert crew member to 11.4% towards master.
