You may want to check in EDDB the systems that sells Tritium at a very low price. You will likely find FC parked there that buys Tritium giving you a large margin of profit.
Fleet Carrier FAQ
- Thread starter Factabulous
- Start date
All FCs are independent. I guess it depends on the fact that they do not influence the BGS.Maybe i'm just not smart enough but.......i've purchased the Fleet Carrier at Diso - Shifnalport not payng attention that the system is ruled by Edmund Mahon and now my "Carrier Security Rating" says "Independent - welcome" with and independent logo near that.......i'm wondering if there is a way to change that from independent to (hopeful) Federation. Please don't tell me that i have to sell back and rebuy the FC in another Federation ruled FC vendor system!View attachment 176646
Interesting, so if 16 cmdrs are occupying your landing pads does that mean you can't land yourself and can't evict them, I'm thinking griefers here?
As an explorer, I no longer have to travel tens of 1000s of ly to sell my data, or to get my name stamped on a cool discovery.
If I destroy an SRV whilst out in the black, I can get it restocked at a carrier.
I can get my ship repaired at a carrier.
Yes you need the armoury service for this.
No, you do not need a stock of limpets on your FC, the carrier will produce them for you.
Updated the OP to use Inara for Vendors / Admin systems, as they all seem present 
Jump to a differently aligned system - it reflects where you are.Maybe i'm just not smart enough but.......i've purchased the Fleet Carrier at Diso - Shifnalport not payng attention that the system is ruled by Edmund Mahon and now my "Carrier Security Rating" says "Independent - welcome" with and independent logo near that.......i'm wondering if there is a way to change that from independent to (hopeful) Federation.

ofc you have probably also got the Independent insignia on your hull near the nameplate (unchangeable AFAIK, others have it worse, they bought from the Empire when they didn't want to
)If you don't have access to Solo maybe Support can help you?
Difficult to block pads if they can't share your instance ...

Am I being dense as I can't find a way to set the minimum stock hold amount. I'm just messing with the market to see what works and in this case, I only want to sell 6k of stock and reserve 5. Is this not implemented? I've tried this from remote and, in this screenshot, I'm sat on the carrier using the management screen.
Not implemented
I don't think so, i've seen a ton of other players gameplay and a lot of them have different status under the security rating and the logo near the status is going accordingly to the showed faction
Well, i'm setting up the explosives charges to blow up my Carrier!Jump to a differently aligned system - it reflects where you are.

Security it's a different thing thouhg. FDEV explained the more you stay in a system and the more economical transaction you have, the more the local faction gets ed off by your presence and the security level increases.
Owners - they put up the $$$ when they put up the request.
The FC market does not allow to place the purchase order if the bank does not have sufficient credits.
Well then! I'm going to explain why i have an independent decal on my Federation Fleet Carrier the FD way, WITH SOME LORE! XD
There's a way to get live prices of commodities that includes fleet carriers ...
forums.frontier.co.uk
(I'm keeping the link in my sig as well ... the more people who know about it, the better)
How To Find LIVE Commodity Prices For Fleet Carriers IN-GAME
Why not use Inara or EDDB? Those sites are great, but they rely on people using ED Market Connector and you'll notice a lot of the fleet carrier info is "8 hours" or "16 hours" or "1 day" old. You can get live prices in-game if you just know how So tell me already? Sheesh, why the long winded...

Is someone able to answer this for me? I've been digging around the GUI and I can't find a way to simply restock the Fuel Depot using Carrier reserves - it only appears possible by transferring it back to a ship first. Is that right?
