Ships SCO Anaconda

[Lord Kril]

Is there a SCO FSD build for the Anaconda, that doesn't cause heat damage?

All the original non-SCO ships will overheat if you don't use SC boost judiciously.

These Jumpconda builds i've seen on EDSY do seem to use SCO, but most have Guardian FSD boosters.

Here's one:

Would this work?
Also, I haven't got to the Guardian stuff yet, neiher ship mods, so no Guardian tech or engineering for me yet. Unless, there's a substitute.

No. And Guardian stuff has no effect. It’s just how SCO works.

So, I'm guessing the SCO is only for increased jump range, without actually being used. That would only be viable for visiting Beagle Point and other systems beyond 75 ly distance.
How do I know, which ships can handle SCO, just like the Mandalay?

The new ships released last year, starting with the Python mkII and including T-8, Mandalay and now Cobra mkV, are all SCO native and have much better performance and heat management with the SCO drives when using the SCO feature.

I have used/still use the SCO in several non-native ships. I find it useful but just needs some attention to situational awareness. Its a learning curve really.

And even though the T-8 is SCO native, mine still overheats when using SCO feature.
