Hey dudes! o7
As a dropship pilot myself I understand every complaint you guys send to CCP; Dropship angle not that great, FG blaping us to the point of insanity, smail rails rocking our ships to kingdom come(omg fix this!), but complaining is not going to help. We just need to adapt until they do change it, we need to stand together, as 1 dropship might not make a difference, but two or more dropships can change the course of the battle completely!
There is a great channel for dropships called Condor Squad, there are amazing pilots in the channel and I encourage all dropship pilots, both vet and recruit to join the channel and find out the real power of dropships! Our corp has also made another channel called Sub AirAcad, if you please join that channel and some associates will be there to help you learn the ways of the dropship! But Condor Squad is still the best way to find great pilots to learn from! Also there are great videos from Judge Rahamadus (Sorry if I spelled wrong) that teaches you basic-advanced dropship maneuvers and will help you in your early dropship career!
Also I have some basic fittings here that help me very much in my career: (Both Armor/Shields included)
*Disclaimer* These fittings are fitted as they have helped me, and they might not work for you but im sure they will. 
Incubus
Highs- Afterburner(Required, unless its not your playstyle) + Shield booster/Heat sync(Blasters)/Damage Controls/Scanners
Lows- Light armor Repair + 60mm polycrystalline(Or meta 1) + Carapace armor hardener(Or Meta1+2) + Local Pwr Grid
ALT- Light armor Rep + 2 Voltaic + Carapace
Weapons- Main_XT-Accel/Frag(Or ADV)
Sides- XT-Cycled/Frag(Or ADV)
Python
Highs- 2 Shield EXT + 2 Shield Resistance amp
Alt- 3 Shield EXT + 1 Shield resistance amp
Lows- 2 local power diagnostics
Alt- 1 local power-grid booster + Mssl dmg amp
Weapons- XT-Accel/Frag(Or ADV)
Sides- XT-Cycled/Frag(Or ADV)
Alright my dropship brothers! Fly Safe and kick ass! o7 |

Well that fitting served me very well, sometimes, you resisits work much better then your overall HP, because its not about your overall HP, its your EHP thag matters. Altho if you have your armor skills up, and your ADS skill up, then you can lose the resis and maybe stack plates. |

Sometimes, forgoten is not always bad, when people see a DS, they say who cares? Im gonna pull my tank out! 2 min later we see a tasty mady kill, then he goes boom, once people see the true power of multiple ADS, they will crap their pants when they see us! I mean 1 ADS isnt that effective depending on your skills, but anything more then 1, can wreak havoc pn the battlefield as they wont know what to shoot at! ;) |

Yeah I usually do somethig similar to that. How does it feel when you have plates everyone? I mean personaly, i feel safer with plates just because the high HP count gives me extra confidence lol! |

Hehe, AB, it can give you one of two things, death from slightly tapping a buliding, or saveing you from losing 1.2 mil in 5 sec!

Being a tanker I can say that speed is a better defense than more armor or shields in combination with eratic movements or upward and over the target movement.
As long as I can shoot you, you will go down. Speed makes it harder for me to keep a good aim.
Flying a dropship also seems speed has done better for me. With eratic evasive maneuvering I'm surviving better.
I'm sorry; but, a hot LZ is a hot LZ. You are going down if you are trying to drop off peeps with a long range weapon trained in you. |
