The Cicada: Must Have Elite Dangerous Odyssey Bubble Bus

07 Commanders, I give you my Cicada a little bug who’s the best Elite Dangerous Odyssey Bubble Bus.

Perfect for the solo flyer, with its small profile, the Cicada can land virtually anywhere. The Cicada can also leverage the enhanced FSD to jump 71.14 ly making it ideal for traversing the bubble. Additionally, the Cicada houses weapons systems for precision and crown control. Finally, the Cicada is suited for anything Odyssey can throw at it and for what ever may come.

You can squeeze a little more jump range out of it by switching to a 16t fuel tank instead of the 32t for bubble hopping. I never have fuel issues with the 16t and have a range of 77 with it.

Here's mine, named Cabby after Ernest Borgnine's character in the movie "Escape from New York"

I take mine into the black with a 16t fuel tank, I figured it will be able to get pretty much anywhere an Anaconda can.

Suits You Sir!, my Odyssey taxi DbX, has the jump range of a frog that got out of a French chef's kitchen a bit too late, but that's OK 'cos as essentially a mission runner it will seldom have to travel more than 20 Ly; but on the other hand it's built like a tank.

I think I made the right choice. On one assassination mission that didn't go entirely smoothly, it had to come down and pick me up under fire. By the time I got into the cockpit, it was down to one fading ring of its Prismatic shield, and by the time I got it into supercruise it was down to 73% hull.

If I'd built it for range rather than survival it wouldn't have been going anywhere.
