Glad to hear you actually lost a dropship in a pub match. Hotfix working as intended.
...this speaks more to your abilities, not ADS balance..
If you find an issue and I stumble upon your thread, I will do my darnedest to get the issue known.

Went 37/1 in the last week or so (can't remember when exactly) in a STD CalSent with STD HMG, but that apparently isn't OP, even though it cost 13k ISK. There is no substitute for skill (not SP; actual skill.) Was it theoretically possible to kill the CalSent?
Dangerous statement..
Now they're a bit more difficult to kill.
I wish we could see your data you use, but, as with everything involving CCP, its hidden behind a veil.. Could be actual data, could be a doodle of a fish.
Still strange Judge isn't around during this. Convenient timing.

I usually don't agree with him, but he has a lot of logic to his arguments, and I think he would really raise the bar on the ADS side of the debate if he were around. Because a lot of the statements are anecdotal, which isn't useful. Judge is really great at testing and crunching the numbers. And having him around would really centralize the debate on the facts.
Then you should have brought this to the community at least so we could debate. Numbers are great, but real world use is where its at.
Have you flown a Level 5 Python? Have you seen the minimal difference? Have you seen the 7 shots an Incubus can get off before overheating? This was a half-assed decision if I've ever seen one.

That's because the skill does almost nothing now.

Can I just say this; it has done wonders for the Skill Stack 'Elite' pilots. Ran into a group of them that I play quite frequently against. They avoided my swarms like the plague, they used to fly without a care in the world wrecking everything with their skill stacked Python or Incubus, but yesterday they lost 3 Pythons to me, and, they were running 3 guys, not the normal 2.
Sad we had to hurt those that fly solo who don't have to abuse such a mechanic every game. (Of note, I have flown 5 times in a skill stack. 3 were with a guy at level 4, 2 were with a guy with 1, so, yes, I abused that... To test who could actually gun).

Glad to hear you actually lost a dropship in a pub match. Hotfix working as intended. Why are you so antagonistic? He is the AV crusader on the Council. But keep in mind that Judge is on the Council too, so there is balance.
Not when Judge is unavailable..

Ask the ADS pilot I just fought 22 minutes ago.
Guy went 0/0 150WP. Those WP from when I was trying to smash a guy and gave 0 fucks on him shooting me as a Rail Incubus is no threat to my Incubus, even with me damaging myself.
I kept him on lock down, he didn't even shoot at an LAV. Yea, I had to run a bit (gasp, having to move to accomplish something), but, I kept him from doing anything except wasting his time. All with my little old Prof 4, Minmando 5 Swarms.
As an ADS pilot, I only shot 2 Swarms at him at a time, never went for the 3rd because I didn't want to kill him..what gives me more points, killing his ADS, or keeping it just alive to comeback again and again.

The thing is, we are probably much more balanced now. ADS pilots aren't looking for balance. But it's going to be a few days until there's enough good data on Delta to figure out where balance lies. People need to chill out.
You took the Incubus's AV capabilities away for the most part (the Efficacy correction does help though) as 7 shots means nothing to a tank. Only a horrific tanker will die to a Rail Incubus. Unless you get a dead-stopped tank that's oblivious, they can usually find their way to safety pretty fast.
