 Don't even bother with blasters on ADS.
 
 Just use missiles.

 This.
 
 Blasters used to be good around 1.5/1.6 era but when CCP make them pin-point ~65m snipers they lost all use. The only way to use one is on a car that is stationary. In a heavy fit.
 
 Dropships need a buff. This way they can stop derping everywhere . ;_; >Tfw no Amarr dropship and laser turrets |

 The only way to have a blaster perform 'okay' on a dropship is to have gallente assault dropship 5, assault dropships 5, run at least an enhanced damage mod and a prototype blaster. And even then you run into huge issues with ammo capacity, damage projection over range, and accuracy. If you have all of those skills it's still better to use a rail with a damage mod.
 
 Or missiles, because they take almost 0 skill.

 Yeah the missiles are really easy to use. Just with the skill tree for gallente ships giving bonuses to blasters was hoping there was some sort of trick to using them

 The trick is getting ccp to buff them.

 Dropships need better camera options. Like the ability to look (aim) down in first person view or offset the camera in third person view. If you could see where you are aiming blasters would be much more viable for pilots.

 I may have been commissioned to run a few blaster dropships, for science. If so, keep your eyes out for those videos on my youtube in the next few days to week-ish
 
 Generally speaking, they're garbage.

 I've played around with it. With Gal ADS at 5 it sounds awesome, but that's the best part. Between no splash damage and the crummy aim point they are very hard to get on target long enough to do anything useful. Even just trying to take out a uplink uses up most of your ammo. Still I've managed a few kills here and there.

 The trick to using a blaster on an ADS is, make your fit and never call it in. I have one! Called it in once, only once. 3 trips to the supply depot later, 2 kills.

 I've only managed 1 kill with a blaster and that was after I camped a body and someone picked him up.
 
 It still took me like 10 sec to kill himGǪ
 
 I don't suggest using one.

 Yeah, don't even bother.
 
 Small Rails on an Incubus is a good Air-to-air platform but that's it.
 
 Small Rails can also destroy shield tanks pretty well but if it's armor forget about it.

 Useless cause you cant aim properly with a ADS. Missiles just outperform them in every way. You get splash damage, high damage and your ammocount will last much longer as with blasters. I think you can reload like 2-3 times with a small blaster before you are out of ammo.
