Best looking ship in the game imho.

- Start date
Time, when I start turning (in Mamba) is, at least for me, the most deciding in distance to the target after I end flip ... i.e. if I start turning too late (target is almost behind me), then the distance is much bigger as when I'm careful and start turning 1/2 sec earlier. And usually it is tied with ... just a moment before I can fire my frags again 
... however it works much better if I'm patient enough and do turn properly, which can easily assure that I'm out of my target firing arc and can safely fire again without the need to divert energy into shields

So the two class 1 turrets just to collect a bounty even when the situation is a little crowed with security forces, I guess?
Not the ones I encountered. The Mamba seems to turn slower than the Anaconda or the Corvette, in fact, even with 4 pips.
Class 1 turrets have scramble and emissive effects, just for effect rather than damage or tagging.
Sounds like you are overspeeding past the blue zone, also get familiar with boost bleeding to give max agility but not much over speed or travel distance.
I can orbit npc larges in the Mamba fairly easily just using regular thrusters etc. Mine are gr5 Drag dirties though.

I like that idea, though unfortunately night vision is a thing. When people don't use NV it works though.This gave me an idea for a chameleon paint job. This would also give a good reason to keep your paint job up. As the wearing of of the paint could lead to problems keeping hidden.
Absolutely. On top of that, the more I fly it, the more I love it. Me, I'm rocking this look right now.Best looking ship in the game imho.
I need to get some pictures out in space... but since I'm currently a lot closer to Sagittarius A* (on the way home from my A* Challenge run) than I am to the bubble, it'll be a bit before I can do that.
Thanks. I spent a bunch of time looking at different paints and kit setups and then when I put together this one it just jumped out at me and I knew I'd found what I was looking for.Nice use of shipkipt and paint, it fits together!

I also bought the Mamba - while the FDL is still may favorite design (next to the Corvette, for entirely different reasons), the Mamba looks ace and certainly among the best looking ships. It helps that it is more detailed than most others and a huge plus vs. The FDL that is sounds great too.
It has far more detailed and animated textures. Among the best interiors visually.
Doesn't have the superb flight characteristics of an FFL but still.
It's a powerful ship in the hands of a jousting pilot. 2 class 3 frags, 2 class one frags and a huge beam laser. This setup works really well with level 3 or better engineering. 
Ole' Tychus says it so nicely!
