Such a pain to get those... nice going!

This is the only time I've used clean drive tuning on a ship. With the grade 5 low emissions power plant with thermal spread you can fly as fast as you want provided you don't boost and the heat stays in the 16% to 18% range. You can still boost to around 550m/s. If you did dirty drive tuning the heat gets closer to 20%, so it doesn't take much to go over and be visible to Maestrom Caustic generators etc.
The 7C Universal Limpet control does well on hull repairs, collectors, research limpets (caustic tissue samples).
Needs to be EDSY for this one (hope the link works, don't know how to do short links for EDSY):

Thanks large!

I've been putting in new bronze fixtures in our master bathroom all day. Will give this a go in a bit.

Thanks - That was probably the most tedious/boring thing I have ever done in game.

..So far!

I love the Clipper, but its lack of access to a medium pad for a ship with medium ship capabilities limits what it can be used for. It's brilliant for sneaking around the Maelstrom farming the various materials, caustic tissue samples etc. The Titan is big enough for the Clippers width to not be an issue so long as you orientate the ship appropriately as you fly around it.
It's not great for combat using even gimballed AX multi cannons due to how far apart the large hardpoints are. But if you're farming materials you want to avoid combat and preserving your hull strength to hold up against the Maelstroms caustic cloud.

As it happens, I found opinion polls worse. I had some SDP's before I started looking to unlock that engi so it wasn't too bad for me...

 

[Kram Nehpets Strebor]

Opinion polls were asy - You gave them to me

Hehe, yes, I remember. Dropped 'em all over that slope up to some base somewhere.

My ambition is to go in with a Cobra MKIII. If that doesn't scare the Thargoids, nothing will.
So far I've been in with a Clipper and a Krait MKII.

You should take a 500 kiloton cobalt salted thermo-nuclear hydrogen bomb into it's throat and let it munch on that once you're clear.

"we come in peace!"

 

[aRJay]

"we come in peace!"

I think the response from the film I can’t be bothered to remember the name of was

”Go in pieces”

 

[Tyres O'Flaherty]

"we come in peace!"

Shoot to kill, shoot to kill!

(Repeat)

 

[CMDR Timber McWolf]

Pardon my scattered appearance.

I come in pieces.​

Did you ever see any of these? I remember watching "In the Perkinning" sometime in the 00's

Kirk's sense of diplomacy & aim are both unnerving...

Did you ever see the "Klingon Style" video or the "Data and Picard" parody?
