I was about to say that! 
But from what little I did fly (till I had crashed my remaining drop ships before the reset) one way were to pull the nose up, and then push the ascent button. But be careful, chances are you'll go in a loop instead, and then crash.
I've suggested it before. We really need a "Flight Academy" and "Shooting gallery" simulator, where people can train vehicle control, and shooting free of charge (or for a few Aurum a day). |

But it does work if your not to low to the ground. And I can't say that this is good advice, but it works better than anything else since we don't have air brakes or breaking thrusters.
Dropships don't have a means of stopping easily, which is sad, and I'd say that if CCP don't mount a main gun on them (which I hope they won't, other flying vehicles are supposed to become available for that), we have the fire button R1 CCP could assign for breaking... |

I have to try that. Once I've made a million. |

Leave my dropship guns out of this Dewie - that's another thread - LOL Another idea is "Lets all call Goodyear and find out how they slow down to land their blimp." Since basically that's what we are trying to fly. 
Naah, a blimp is more responsive. |
