- It Came out amidst the declaration that it was the 'Cutlass Killer'. It is the cargo variant of Crusaders Spirit Series; the C1.
In this Video I go over what it is, what it has, what it does, and what looms just on the Horizon for this Humble Hauler.

The only thing I wish by Spirit had is a door up front...
Agreed! Its really missing out
I wonder what they’ll do with the E1. I doubt VIP guests will want to enter through the cargo hatch.
Crusader is a door company masquerading as a ship manufacturer
Also a centered pilot chair. There is no reason for the chairs to be side by side. The co-pilot seat just controls the tractor beam.
The C1 is not the first Crusader ship with VTOLs, the Hercules’ wing tips also pivot into down-facing thrusters.
Does it really? I've not noticed an upward boost, I'll have to revisit it!
Oh, I don’t know if it actually provides extra lift, but the thrusters do rotate at least on the model
@@AsrielDreemurr56yes and yes, it does.
I upgraded my cutty to the c1 for 6$ cuz 25$ I had store credit,no regret, I love my c1
I use it for Bunker missions. It can hold a lot of internal storage for loot. It also can carry a cyclone for missions requiring a ground vehicle.
I have both, and I've been considering CCUing the Cutty.
I have the c1 as my pledge. Amazing ship I love how it looks I love the interior and am so excited for when the functionally works inside like the armor racks gun racks and kitchen hahaha
YAY, BoO dropped another vid
It's been a minute, I know! 😅
Herc c2 line also has vtol :P Figured id mention it.
I'd honestly never noticed any upward boost on the C2, I'll have to revisit it!
I feel like the C1 is an easy-mode money grab for CIG. Modular ships are a big L so sales on something like a 'tali in the now-times are impossible so... "Ey we made a bomber, and look we also got a cargo version ey"
It certainly felt that way, especially with the Zeus Pledge dropping hot on the heels of it's release to the PU
We have vastly different ideas about the word "spacious" my friend :) My daily drivers are a Freelancer Max and a Vulture in solo mode so take that as you will. I also got the C1 loaner via the Zeus CL and I haven't been impressed. Yea it flies a bit faster and smother than the MAX but it's not a money making work horse by any means. Hopefully the Zeus impresses more.
Usually I´m looking for the smallest ship to fullfill a given task. That generally excludes Crusader ships, because they are in almost all cases wider in size than their counterparts. But what makes the C1 a real nogo for me is the small number of MFDs, with Freelancer having double and Cuttie even three times the number of MFDs.
This is a valid point. More MFDs is better. I just wish we could get some dang persistence on them. Same as our fire groups!
I mean they artificially limited what land vehicles you can fit in the ship with really pointless door frames, I flew mine for about a week before I upgraded to the taurus
If they ever make a medical variant of this Spirit series I would drop my wallet on it instantly. I love having access to a medical bed, can't run bunkers or merc missions on distro centers without my trusty C8R. A medical bed would be amazing on this beauty of a ship
I'm the same with the Drake Cutter. I would throw my wallet at the screen if they made one!
@@BeardofOz The closest thing to my dream ship is the upcoming Apollo and aaa I'm so excited!
Try the cutlass red it has been good for me
I wanted a ship this size for a while, but refused to buy the Cutlass like everyone else. As soon as the Spirit dropped, I jumped on it. It's a great ship, and it my daily now. My only gripe is the single entry point in the back (would love direct cockpit access like the Titan).
It's a common sentiment (for the MSR too)!
Lol now you bought a c1, just like everyone else!
I think that second door in the back is there to hinder other players from seeing if your cargo bay is empty or not when you enter your ship.
Maybe. A scan would likely reveal it though.
I meant other players on foot not in another ship. Forgot to mention that.
That's fair. I do wish it would lock similarly to external doors though, reducing the likelihood of stowaways should you leave the ramp down and turn your back 😂
Yeah that would be nice. Maybe when remote controlling ships makes it into the game it will be more useful.
More likely to be a nice little airlock if someone blows open your ramp
For me, it is as simple as:
C1 is for solo, Cutlass is for when playing with a friend.
Waiting to see the Zeus. C1 is my package ship right now and I love it, but will possibly upgrade to that during invictus or whenever it drops. Would also change to a Taurus potentially if it got a gold pass/update. Love that ship and it is perfect for my preferred gameplay currently, even solo.
Taurus is an easy choice. I'm hoping the Zeus feels like a Taurus Mini
Totally forgot it had a tractor beam lol
Zeus will be a cutlass and c1 killer imo. Even if it flys a bit slower.
Hopefully we don't have to wait much longer to find out!
Vanguard Harbinger makes short work of a cutlass. Will stick to that.
But what if that Cutlass has delicious cargo? Where will you put it?
@@BeardofOz I am never alone have a whole org of support behind me..and not a loot where never have been
I have a Spirit since concept, and also a CCU to the A1and the E1. I'm waiting for the Zeus and then decide about what to do, but the CL seems really juicy.
The Spirit to me is bloated: too large for what it does when it comes to footprint, too many doors in a one floor hull and the landing gear is too low on the ground.
It also commits the same deadly sin of the MSR and the Carrack: it lacks a secondary entrance for getting just people in and out.
the C1 is probably a goner in my fleet, as I never felt anything for this ship, same as for the MSR: I own them to CCU to something else.
I think the pinnacle when it comes to ship design, the "Just Right", was reached with the Constellation and the Freelancer: too bad these ships have grow obsolete, with broken metrics and we will probably never see a proper retooling (F-7C => F-C MkII): why fix the ship we already bought when they can sell us new ones?
I'm a big fan of the Constellation (Taurus is best, I'll not be taking further questions) So I'm hoping the Zeus captures that same level of Chefs Kiss but with the Gold Plated Level of newer ships
But a Cutlass can leave a hangar and not rip it's own wings off xD
Ain't that the truth! Appropriate sized hangars are soon™️ 😅
@@BeardofOz Jokes aside, it's a fantastically detailed ship. Aesthetically, probably one of the most pleasing ships in game, imo. I have no doubt those who own it are very happy with it.
@@Nemoticon Absolutely. I'm not partial to the Crusader Aesthetic, but until the Zeus Mk2 became a thing I was smitten with this ship.
The C1 is my goto ship when I have a bit of extra cash on hand. That way I can pay for the wing repairs after entering my hanger.
It just has such a needlessly large footprint. I really wanted to love it, but it’s so wide lol
I do hope cig find a way to get spirit fying a bit better. Seems worse than cutty in more ways than maybe it should be.
and the Zeus CL will be the Spirit C1 killer :D
It very much looks that way!
It is supposed to handle much slower, so if you need maneuverability, the Zues may not fit the need. We will see of course. I have the C1 and love it...and I have Zues ES coming to more fit an explorer role.
I read that also, and it'll be interesting to see how that plays out, especially with Master Modes!
Video few months for now: "C1 killer? RSI Zeus MkII"
Hopefully not too many months 🤣
No, nothing is better than my Drake!!!! Nothing you hear me!!!??? Nothing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We need more Drake ships!
@@BeardofOz Amen!
Subscribed.
The c1 killer will be the zeus cl
It seems likely!
Using the speed, shields, and weapons to escape a sticky situation will be taken away with Master Modes, unfortunately. That being said, I prefer the C1 over the Cutty and Freelancer. It's been my (mostly) daily driver.
C1 is actually in game now?
@@thelitchfieldexperiment6269 Yep, C1 and A1 are in game. It's the E1 (passenger transport) that still is not. And since CIG hasn't spoken a word about the transporting profession, I doubt we'll see it for a long time.
So far, I've not engaged in PVP in 3.23, but in a few PVE encounters, I was easily able to disengage from enemies in Nav mode. The Ship took some hits once the shields dropped, but the hull held out long enough to put some distance between us before I made the altitude to jump.
I'm going to do some more trials, but so far, it hasn't been disastrous.
If you hit boost while switching to NAV mode you won't lose any speed, I've tried it. I wanted to see how well it worked when I learned it from a Redditer. I took it a step further. I set my trim first then switch to NAV, then hit boost. You won't be caught and will take very little damage if any.
I have noticed also that entering QT at a particular speed would result in me exiting QT at that same speed and 'coasting' even without Cruise Control on (I also fly coupled so I found that interesting). I wonder if this is intended or just an EPTU thing.
Just say three twenty three. You don't need to say three point twenty three
Three point twenty three point one
@@BeardofOz Plus One Point Zero
Hm, the cargo isn’t that impressive to me, I think I’d much rather use the A1 as a dedicated bomber and backup to the A2. Sounds more fun.
Cutlass killer? Even though CIG said the C1 was a Cutlass competitor, it’s really not. The Cutlass is a multi-crew ship that is combat oriented, while the C1 is a solo ship that is cargo oriented. Yeah it has a tractor beam turret, but no one needs a second person for that.
You’d use one or the other depending on what you’re doing. That’s not really a competition imo.
it aint the cutless killer for new people since that shit is a good million more expensive
Looks like the C1 now has 4 shiels now instead of 2.
When did that happen?!
@@BeardofOz Its in 1:35 min of your video. Look at the ship's MFD. I don't see anyone else pointing this out so you should be the first.
@Halla29Gaming Oh that's the directions distribution of the shield. Each side gets worn down under fire. When I say 2 shield generators that's the components that create the total HP of the shields.
Nope the C1 is to much empty space and makes landing a pain both hangers and planetside since there is almost never flat enough ground to allow it to land with out been uneven or damage the ramp when you lower it or even leave it to high in the air to get back in if not careful. The Zeus is going to be the real killer of the Cutlass and the C1 since its about the same size as the Cutlass and the cargo hold is just so much bigger.
The C1 sure does teeter when landing on the Surface of moons (especially Aberdeen from memory). I hope the Zeus sits a little more nicely 😅
The Cutlass is the Huey of Star Citizen.
Better than the cutlass in every way that matters and you still say it's not a cutlass killer?
Spirit can't kill cutlass
Zeus will be a spirit killer☠️
Unless something goes terribly wrong with it, I think so too.
