For scanning Titan debris, sensors Long Range or Wide Angle?

[Doctor Dread]

As per title, I've placed Class 5 sensors on my AspX but confused whether I should max them out as Long Range or Wide Angle.

What will give an advantage in search for this **** Drive Components around Cocijo?

Any thoughts or experiences?

Never used either, but wouldn't wide angle only affect things that need to be scanned like ships? For just making the list of contacts, our scanners already cover every angle.
Would be long range if so, to find far away materials sooner.

G5 long range. Heavy at 40tn, but I like to know what the target is as soon as possible. I'm just impatient like that.

That's just for scanning maelstrom clouds though.

G5 long range for Titan environments.

Yea, wide angle is for active scanning ships etc. Long range is passive scan so objects show up on the scanner when further away. I've never found a use case for wide angle.
All ships use long range and a small few use light weight.
Ideally you'd want class A long range engineering for dead titan mat gathering.

Long range, both for picking up cargo on the scanner, as well as maintaining situational awareness on Goids and pirates.

Long range thermal vents are good too for hiding from wandering Goids. The bits of Titan gubbins floating around count as a cooling target when you hit them.

Thank you all, I've picked this one as an illustration of what I was asking for.

Class A G5 LR for Titan Drive Components, hooray!

Again, all you guys above,
