Yeah, must be fun to be an invincible deathdealer, killing people on the ground who cannot shoot back at all (seeing as how tanks can't elevate their turrets high enough, and AV isn't effective enough to prevent you from just activating an afterburner and lifting off at lightspeed and be able to outrun swarm missiles with ease), and only have your own tunnelvision and incompetence to fear since the only way non ADS pilots can shoot you down is when you're not paying attention. Yeah, God-Mode must be hella fun!   Btw, aren't you late for making yet another tired thread where you try to push for making dropships even more invincible and overpowered than they are already? 
 If you think that it is God-Mode, you've never used one. It is far from God-Mode. You've shown your ignorance is pretty astounding and what does this have to do with a thread about them being fun to fly? **** all.

 For you stuntflyers zooming thru the table top. On that same map, there's an open line thru the Charlie warehouse you can 'burner thru. Go first person and give it a go. Aced it during an empty game but have crashed and burned each Tim I've tried it with witnesses (performance anxiety I guess). But it is doable, and at speed. Bonne chance my airborne brethren!!

 I was flying over the enemy MCC before and for reasons I don't know I just went from full health to zero. I didn't hit it. I was really far above it. No RDV came in and one shotted me. Confused as to what happened :\
 u were hit by the null cannon round that fires down on the MCC 
 That is so bullshit that something like that can insta kill you. I just died to it again a couple minutes ago. What's interesting about Dropships is that things like that and RDV's instant killing you will, probably, never be fixed. Because so few people fly dropships because of the cost that the complaining will never reach a point where CCP will feel the need to do something about it.
 
 And, well, RDV's killing you have been a problem since the closed beta and they haven't done a single thing about it. So, it may never change, knowing CCP.

 I would expect a missile designed to penetrate the armor of an mcc would instantly vaporize a dropship. And while instant death when you touch an rdv is a bit much, they are easily avoided, so no big deal.

 I found training on ads also helped with standard DS. Everything seems slower after ads, but allows for some better control.

 Why?
 
 Because whoever made the dropships was using a marionette when they designed it, hence the turning suddenly makes a lot more sense after you mentally create a crossbar, and strings that travel about 40 meters above the Dropship.Your inputs then tug upon the crossbar above the Dropship, and that pulls the ship along behind it.
 
 The ship itself does not have propulsion centered inside it, or the steering would be MUCH different.

 It can be easily avoided. But, I've been taken down by an RDV before I even knew it was there. Things like that should be fixed. It doesn't matter if the missile hitting an MCC doing damage would also have the damage to destroy you. It's a playability issue. It's clear the devs didn't think of it. Or they are just glib.
 
 Instant death when you touch anything is a bit much. I'm scared to sneeze in real life when I'm flying it under fear of what will happen.
