I am looking for any and all tips anyone can give me! I just got my ADS and my aim is SLOWLY getting better each match. I fly Gallente Dropships so there's that. I have tried dualtanking with my incubus but the shield regen is too slow to be usefull (guess I could put regen modules on...I'll try that later.) |

Ask in the Rookie training grounds, you'll get better results. |

If you want general flying and manueaver practice go to the Oceania servers, they're mostly deserted. |

Ummm I would advise doing so in a full squad and not calling in anything until u are 100% sure the other team poses no threat.....had some bad experiences teaching rookies how to fly on the oceana |

It's mixed I admit, but overall it tends to be safer than a normal pub match for general flight training. |

This. There are a lot of really good pilots in the Condor Squad channel. They'll show you the ropes. |

Invest in afterburners. If anything hits you, just turn those babies on and you'll be untouchable*
*just watch out for large, immobile objects. Flying into the MCC with afterburners does a ridiculous amount of damage |

I don't know what your talking about, afterburners seem to get me out of any predicament in a jiff. |

python
3x small azo
1x 15% resist
2x jovian torque mod
best turret in the front, std missles on the sides (unless you have dedicated gunners on the sides whome you can talk to and have flown with in the past, make them earn expencive turrets.)
dont stop moving, hovering in a spot is ok as long as your controlling LOS to prevent surprize forge, if you cant block LOS then dont stop and hover, do circles and divebombs.
with the torque mods your the most agile dropship on the field 100%of the time not just when you need to get out of dodge.
if you can get yourself gunners establish some basic commands and procedures. im a dedicated gunner for a few pilots and have some decent flying skills myself, its important to know what my pilots experiance from their point of view.
first thing to do is establish whos in command, occasionally you will have a gunner commander who will dictate where to attack and what to do, most of the time the pilot is the commander (but not squad leader, gunner should also be squad lead for defend order and orbital support)
the pilot tells when to open fire (gunners shouldnt shoot too early) and what is the high priority target
gunner declairs threats and potential targets.
make sure one person at least has a rep tool on hand. you WILL need it. |

The best tip I can give is: expect to go broke post haste.
AV is insanely OP vs dropships, it's that simple. |

It wont be anything I do on a regular basis anyway. Like everything I am spec'd into, it just depends on what I want to do. I am spec'd into Dropships, HAVs, LLAVs, SLAVs, All light weapons, All Sidearms, Gallente Logi, Gallente Scout, and A LOT of modules. So, whatever hits my fancy at any given time I play. |
