sadly, drones (limpets) are a cargo item, so you must have cargo space, if you need/want any drones, like fuel drones etc.

So... I thought I'd try out the new ship! It looks fantastic, based on what little I've seen. However, I'm not certain where to find it. Worse, what I've seen suggests there are only 5 internal compartments (not including the military ones). This makes me want to pull out my hair. Only 5 compartments?!? That's not enough! I wanted to use the ship as an explorer, but there's not enough internal spaces for the necessary gear!

1. Shield Generator
2. Discovery Scanner
3. Surface Scanner
4. Fuel Scoop
5. SRV Bay

6. Cargo Bay

(7. Fuel Tank - optional, but VERY useful)

It's all nice and good having special military compartments, but they aren't needed by explorers, and limit the versatility of what would otherwise be a fantastic ship! I hope that they adjust this, and give us another internal space, or change one of the military spaces to a general use space.

i went to semotus beacon & beagle point with...

1. AFMU
2. Discovery Scanner
3. Surface Scanner
4. Fuel Scoop
5. SRV Bay

left the shields at home

Arrived with 100% hull and got back yesterday with 100% hull 26 landings in total, highest G 6.2g

dont get me wrong i would like a military slot opening up to optional but alas nobody listens to common sense so i went with what i could fit in.
