That issue with the F7C in atmo for me is if you're going to fast it will just randomly have a mind of it's own. Easy to avoid if you only travel max speed in straight lines, or just slow down to SCM if you're fighting.
Those are not F7A components. I have the F7A components on one of my hornets from the Eckhart mission and those are not them. I tried to transfer the component over to my F7C MK II and you can't anymore. Cig disabled them from being tractor beamed on.
in the first part of the vid it's the parts you can buy but later in the vid what you see are the eckhart parts. you can tell by the weapon sizes, 2 s3 and 2 s2. while it's true that you can't t-beam the parts over like before you can still put them on the ship in vlm if you already had them in inventory. i also have done this with the ball turret, don't have the nose turret though.
@@jesterskeep How do you get them to inventory because I tried to unequip them but it shows as empty in the load out manager for the ship? I see the components in the F7A MK II screen but they show as 0/1 available because already equipped.
@@jimflagg4009Before the last patch dropped i unequipped them in vlm so they were in my local inventory, not installed on the ship. After the patch dropped the ball turret was still there and I was able to put it on the mkii.
I think, the important part is, that you (while in awe about the firepower) getting almost wrecked by enemy fire. I think the shields of the f8 will prevail ;)
F7C and F7A aren’t actually the same, even apart from hardpoints. First, the F7A has a size 2 reactor, not the 2xS1 of the civilian version. Second, according to Erkul, the F7A is less maneuverable (roll, pitch, yaw, SCM speed) across the board than its civilian variant (yes, LESS maneuverable… I find that weird too).
The issue is that the current F7As we have in game are NPC ones we steal. Who knows what the real F7A will be when released. Things might change. There is already rumor that they might buff the F7C MK II in atmo but we shall see.
I will give 1,000,000 aUEC if you let me scrap your ship so I can get loadout. My in game name is silvergeist. Add me as a friend if you want easy money 😅
I picked up the MK II and I’ve been loving it, even more than the F8. I’m. It sold on the F7A variant either. Yeah, it has more firepower, but it’s less maneuverable and slower. I know this can, and probably will, all change but I just wanted to say great job CIG, amazing ship
looks awsome except that ball turret imo... it takes away the sleek design and id rather see it with the mounted guns from the arrow if only would that be possible
I don't think so, also f8 is very rare ship and has size 2 shields. I am sticking with my F8 . I was thinking to melt my F8 but after testing f7a , I am sticking Emmy F8 . Also try all deadbolts on f8c amazing 🤩
F7 us more maneuverable, but don't make any decisions until master modes comes out with 3.23 as a lot will be changing with that. The F8 is rare, don't want to melt it and find out it might be a better choice in master modes 😅
@SMhydra I am hoping so, I love my F8, the gimbal/size changes alone will give it total dominance in jousting other fighters, but we will see how it fares with dogfighting the smaller more nimble ships. Fingers crossed.
He can fly around in it as long as he doesn't log off. He will not be able to open any doors/enter the ship if not in a party with the owner. He can not modify the loadout unless the item ports are unlocked and he does it manually (it will not show up in load out manager). He can not use it to buy or sell cargo.
It looks goofy with the top mounted gun. I wish CIG would stop doing that to fighters. If they want it to have 4 gun mounts, why not just allow a heavy loadout with two additional gun mounts on the wings with a cost of aerodynamics. I thought we'd get past these goofy looking top and nose mounts a long time ago but it seems to still be a mainstay.
It is goofy because it is not his turret, it belongs to the old hornet but is equipped on new. The military version has great looking turrets top and bottom. By the way we already have bad aerodynamics on this ship sadly. o7
Nice to hear someone else likes Stellardrone.
Love it amazing background music and just music to listen.

Awesome, thank you for sharing.
I think an org actually got their hands on an actual f7a. "F7a First Look" is the title or something. Pretty cool watch

The components you have are from the Super Hornet which you can buy in the stores.

@@jesterskeep You were damn lucky because most of us equipped the stuff right after the patch.
I use tarantulas and 2 adb4s, awesome ship. Done 2 hrt missions before restock
Those F7A Mk I pop up on medium beacons so you dont actually need mission :)
Hi. Brilliant look. The question is what size NDB on the bow and where did you buy it? and where to buy Gatling ?
Greetings from Poland
Thanks. NDB are size 2. But real F7A can have 2x3. You can buy the on new Babage directly of the wall or on CRU L-5. Big greetings back.
@@infinitespace239 Thanks a lot

Exactly it is medium fighter. After trying F7C I am sticking with my F8.
I'm in love with the F7C, I can't wait to upgrade it to a F7A. A medium fighter that can take out a hammer head 🥰🥰 🥰
Not with the new MM changes.
And only until the next sale….
@@harabecswurveweathers You're not lying. But I'll look good when I explode :)
I figured with wings it would be good in atmosphere unlike the cutter which is a flying brick. 😂

i bet you its because the F7A will have more armor, maybe
The issue is that the current F7As we have in game are NPC ones we steal. Who knows what the real F7A will be when released. Things might change. There is already rumor that they might buff the F7C MK II in atmo but we shall see.
I have that same F7A Ish loadout
O really you have managed to grab it nicee. Enjoy.
I will give 1,000,000 aUEC if you let me scrap your ship so I can get loadout. My in game name is silvergeist. Add me as a friend if you want easy money 😅
A little missile? That was an arrester 3 right?
I still like the F7A MK1 :)

looks awsome except that ball turret imo... it takes away the sleek design and id rather see it with the mounted guns from the arrow if only would that be possible
Yeah, but F7a looks cool with 2 size 3 guns
bro, im tempted to melt my f8 and just have this as my designated fighter. is the f7c-ii more maneuverable then the f8?
I don't think so, also f8 is very rare ship and has size 2 shields. I am sticking with my F8 . I was thinking to melt my F8 but after testing f7a , I am sticking Emmy F8 . Also try all deadbolts on f8c amazing 🤩

That’s what I did .. and it better to me .. even locks missile target so easily
With mm changes the f8 will be a terminator
@SMhydra I am hoping so, I love my F8, the gimbal/size changes alone will give it total dominance in jousting other fighters, but we will see how it fares with dogfighting the smaller more nimble ships. Fingers crossed.
How does ship sharing between friends work? When I go to log off will it be a problem for him? If he has my ship still?
Yeah, if he is not in party I think it will be written private property. But not sure.
He can fly around in it as long as he doesn't log off.
He will not be able to open any doors/enter the ship if not in a party with the owner.
He can not modify the loadout unless the item ports are unlocked and he does it manually (it will not show up in load out manager).
He can not use it to buy or sell cargo.
@@TheBod76 awesome, he won't get a crime stat or anything will he?
@@David-82No, not for being inside and using it. He would get CS2 if he would salvage your ship but that is all I can think of.
Can not wait for MM to come in and fly the F7A with a full ballistic loadout man.
its a flyying tank
3 x S4! It makes the Khartu-al screem at high alien pitch from the depths of the legacy ship blackhole.
А у меня есть апгрейд до F7A , еще давно купил. Привет из России.
