Thanks for the answers guys.
Personally I am not a big fan of the Clipper's looks, but I love the way it handles and the singing of the engine.
It is all a matter of taste of course, but what I don't like about the design of the Clipper is the oversized cockpit. When you look inside you see two tiny chairs in an almost empty hall that seems big enough for a 4 room apartment. I feel the enormous size of the cockpit and it's canopy are out of proportion. When you look at modern airplanes with fuselages of comparable size the cockpit and canopy are much smaller. Because of that these planes convey their large size much better and they look much better too.
I also would have liked the Clipper to have a more aggressive hawk-like nose, instead off the Donald Duck nose it has now.
It can be circumvented. Kind of. I usually go with C3 beams and C2 multis and I've got right side fixed and left side gimballed. It's a little awkward at the start, but easy to get used to. Not harder than off-centre seat iself.
That is indeed an interesting way of doing things. Never considered it.
I had C3 beams and C2 multis. All gimballed.
I wanted to test a few other weapons configurations. I tried fixed beams and multis, but even an Anaconda seemed to maneuver lazily and unharmed between the beams of my lasers
. I couldn't believe it. was so shocked that I was almost destroyed before I could react. I tried some other stuff too, but nothing was to my liking.
Now I want my old weapons back, but it is not so easy to find them where I am now.
