Apparently not: https://edsy.org/s/vKP3oq9Which would make it 90+ Ly with GFSB , that is more than what Conda can do
She's a beauty! (New ship revealed--Mandalay)
- Thread starter Shurimal
- Start date
A some ships have additional animation once grounded (courier nacells engines exhaust close up, only after touchdown) - but since ship is technically show already how it looks like when landed and when about to land and during "flight" ready so thats 3 stages already, I cant see any diffrence in ship, such as any moving parts apart of F-35 vertical thrusters. These mentioned thrusters seems to be independ from landing gear (unlike DB), so its probly going vertical only in planets, if near ground and once slowed enough, that being said I wonder how it will be work in end.
But... despite being medium ship, its very high and wide, it seems being higher and certainly wider than T7, so prehaps, large pad only? Or it will really need to land sideways?
Ok, Now I don't know where I did a mistake. I think I need to be more careful to perspective.
Official dimensions:
Mamba - 72 m
Type-7 - 99 m
Yes, that's why I spend a time making fun with predictions. It really doesn't bother me what Mandalay will be in all that particular stuff, I will buy it anyway, because I am an explorer/exobiologist and I like have a lot of exploration ships, so new shiny toy especially for explorers are what I want since the first announcement about 4 ships this year
So my every post in this topic is like kid looking for lego catalog in '90
This forum thread is very strange. A couple pages ago a person asked about 90 degree turn.
I remembered that it was shown on page 10 and gave the answer that it was already there. And then the same picture appears and people put likes.
Don't people read the forum? Or is it more interesting to discuss the same thing?
I don't understand
A lot of forum users tend to skip a lot of pages in threads with lot of pages, neither all of them follows every post and page (such as this one, 27 pages already), and obviously it can cause for discussions might be repeat independly.This forum thread is very strange.

You can't tell from the photo of the pad what goes down the elevator shaft. But I think the boundaries beyond which you can't go are marked with a dotted line.
Not lights and exactly a dotted line with corners.
Yellow line is the edge.
Then why the dotted line with the corners ? And in any case there should be a reserve, a safe zone.
The more I follow this discussion, the more I'm tempted to get the Mandalay even though the T8 is higher on my priority list right now specially with PP 2.0 coming soon

When you have the opportunity to buy Mandalay, it will be possible to take T8 for credits.The more I follow this discussion, the more I'm tempted to get the Mandalay even though the T8 is higher on my priority list right now specially with PP 2.0 coming soon

Why not both?
T-8 for ARX after 3 months as Python Mk 2, so one month after Mandalay relase. I don't see any reason to make this early acces time shorter, even if it would be convinient for me
We also have a yellow line on the platform that you can't go beyond to avoid being hit by a train.To look cooler
But the size of the train is much smaller than this line.
Look at the T8, if the yellow line was the edge you wouldn't have to fold the nozzles.
Incidentally, someone already wrote a ballad for the Mandalay:

FD better not disappoint on this one
Hutton's take on the Mandalay - with sincere apologies to the ghost of Rudyard Kipling
With so many of the streamers and partners featuring shots of and discussion about the Mandalay - we felt it was only right that in true Hutton style, we take a different tack. It's a classic barrack room ballad by Rudyard Kipling and it was only right and proper that it be given the "Hutton"...
