Checks notification, uses pathfinder to watch the video

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

Lol

[@Keryaken133]

I feel like while designing the Quasar class, the engineer designed this starship in hopes that what happened to the Equinox would never happen again and the crew would have much better survival and firepower

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

That might have been a hidden factor!

[@ROA_Offical]

Omg this is such a smart starship especially for them to make because of the borg project! Im so happy its here 😊😊

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

Thank you so much! :)

[@kristopherkingston6309]

love the idea of the ship's computer needing time to learn how to "walk" so to speak. learning its body as if it were a member of the biological crew.👍

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

Thank you very much :)

Can't wait for the Typhoon video when you get the remastered model.

[@TrentonBennett]

A+ as always. For the ship and the back story. I really dig this design. I definitely see it as a Picard era Nova Class but upgraded. Too bad we didn't see this on screen.

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

Totally agree, and thank you!

[@georgesulea]

Neat! Never heard of this one. Cool story and design:) (Also, I love the idea of circuitry that needs to grow into its ship:)

I wouldn't be surprised if the Star Trek: Academy series would have a science vessel like this assigned to it but in the 32nd Century!

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

Time will tell :)

[@Isteak80]

Surely nothing bad can come from these borg tech ships "growing" their own neural networks...

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

Nothing at all...

[@rosswieloch1115]

I like the detail with the bioneural circuitry taking two weeks to learn the ship. It's not necessary to add that to the story but at the same time it makes a lot of sense.

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

It's necessary to make the ship seem more real!

[@andrewmalinowski6673]

Other than the Quasar havig a shortened Nova-style saucer a little hard to take seriously as a descendant to the Nova-class design, but the idea of the advanced bio-neural circuitry slowly building an "understanding" of the systems a little like melding a Borg AI with the computer core. It sounds like she was designed based on; the Borg, Defiant-class, Prometheus-class, and Nova-class to make a small but dangerous vessel and wonder what a Quasar would be like if she'd been sent to the Delta Quadrant in place of the Equinox

[@The1ReviewBoard]

I wonder what a Neo Oberth class would be like. The Quasar is nice.

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

You'll see soon enough :)

[@The1ReviewBoard]

@@TriAngulumAudioStudios I can’t wait. Keep the videos coming, 🖖.

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

I will do my best, Prophets willing ;)

[@erykcszminschki7104]

My only complaint is that the primary hull seems too small compared to the bulk of the rest of the ship and seems off balance to my eyes

[@Achilles483]

Great video! Have you done one on the Enterprise J? Universe class I believe?

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

Not yet, but it's coming, no worries!

[@JackW-hp7op]

Boom...that isssue with the core is what I needed to flush out my purto rico kit bash...USS Arecebo... a test bed starship with a n ambasidor class scaucer, integrated deflector, and tiny nacels, and a crew of 6-700 a massive impuse engine. new phasers...called pulse phaser arrays. allowing the ship to beam and cannon from the same outputs

[@45580677]

Nice

[@olegt9213]

Like it! Maybe ?Typhoon next?

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

Doubt it will be next, as Im already almost done the next video lol But it will be in the future!

[@hassanlichtel2407]

Well done! Can you do the SS Eleos XII?

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

If/ when I get a 3d model of it, sure!

[@hassanlichtel2407]

@@TriAngulumAudioStudios which format do you prefer? The ship is no problem to build, but i cannot do the texturing :(

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

Well I can't do texturing either... Retexturing yes, but not texturing! I am not a 3d Modeler in the slightest... And it needs to be 4k and in Blender!

[@Bluefoot65]

how many crew does the ship require?

[@angelicdoomduck]

Way back in the TNG Technical Manual, it was suggested that the then next Enterprise, E, could potentially be a Nova-class. Having seen this design of the Quasar-class now... it’d be kind of cool to see the Enterprise-H or I, in the mid-to late 25th century or early 26th century, be of this class.

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

This class, though gorgeous, is FAR too small to be a flagship!

[@Cauin450]

I would love it so much if they would do a Strange New World type series based on the Enterprise F. An Andorian captain, a ship that's practically a flying city and with the ability to not only seek out new life and new civilizations and do the boldly bit at transwarp velocities! Want to see how the Talaxians are doing, set course! Can transwarp allow them to go through the Great Barrier and have a look at the Galaxy from outside? Let's find out! The ideas are exceptional and worth every minute.

[@defiantance]

I can see two problems with this class's Borg - type bioneural circuitry. 1) With each computer core more or less designing it's own pathways, this may mean that a computer core from one shup of the class may not work well in a ship of the same class. 2) With Starfleet's fear of Artificial Intelligence, would this not set off alarms in Starfleet if the computer core is deciding on its own about how to think? Just a couple of thoughts.

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

Neither is a problem! First Starfleet really doesnt have anything against AI, see Data, an entire planet of Androids they are protecting, the Holodeck etc... Second, since each core adapt to it's ship means the opposite... That the core becomes better for THAT ship... Making it far better than a core that doesn't adjust! Just a few responses :P

[@defiantance]

@@TriAngulumAudioStudios First, Zora the A.I. of the U.S.S. Discovery from Star Trek Discovery, is where my belief in A.I. fear is from. Second, would that not mean that the computer core cannot be recycled? Say, one Quasar Class ship is so badly damaged, Starfleet just scraps the whole ship. The old computer core might not work well in a new Quasar Class ship.

[@defiantance]

@@TriAngulumAudioStudios Also, don't forget the M-5 computer from T.O.S.

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

First, this is the 25th Century, not the 31st Century and beyond! So any of those issues to cause a slight issue, and it IS slight as even that Starfleet allows Zora, haven't happened yet! Second, the Core would simply adapt to its new ship, using the same procedure!

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

And 1 bad case doesn't = Starfleet turning its back on AI, again see the examples already listed that prove your idea incorrect!

[@youtubepleb]

The description seems to be confused; it’s talking about the Paladin-class.

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

Either your browser hasnt updated or the video description hasnt updated yet, as it's correct on my end... But thank you for letting me know!

[@youtubepleb]

@@TriAngulumAudioStudios Ah yeah, it’s fixed now.

[@masterskywalker7141]

Love it love it. Although (Not trying to be rude) I've never liked how low the registries are, I get why they are like that because of the fleet yard incident but if we're talking chronological. For 2407 I'd suggest Starfleet give it a 108012 registry, maybe higher.

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

Registries are not Chronological! I think that might be where your mistake is!

[@masterskywalker7141]

@@TriAngulumAudioStudios Wasn't it supposed to be chronological? NX-01 was the first starship with warp capabilities, then came the Daedalus-class with the 100s and the registries got higher as more ships were built throughout the years. the 1701 was the first of its class with 1700 being the prototype. Most notably Discovery with some CGI models having a 5x higher registry than enterprise with NCC-2757 for example in 2256 with the Fed fleet having at least 1 or 2 Pre-Production CGI's. I just go by the book and what I see. Not trying to harsh.

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

It started out as Chronological, but sometime after the NX Class that stopped... Your example of the Constitution Class is proof it's not Chronological, See USS Constellation 1017, though being the 3rd of the Class constructed! The USS Grissom is another example being 638 when the class came long after the Constitution class. So it seems to me you don't go by the book or what you see, but rather you go by what you want to see ;) As you've missed many examples through out Trek that disprove you theory, and they're all a part of the book! Other examples include Discovery 1031, even though the episode it debuted said it was a brand new class, launched a decade AFTER the Constitution Class. The White Sands 8227 even though it was a late 24th century Starship and there are MANY MANY more examples! Not trying to be harsh, merely correcting your error!

[@masterskywalker7141]

@@TriAngulumAudioStudios Huh, registries still confused me, even more so with Nu-Trek. What I'm saying is that if it's the future you'd think that they'd watch their registries more carefully or in this case contradict some with lower registries than the lead ship of the class. Anyways thanks. I'm always waiting for new videos.

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

From what canon has shown us, Registry numbers seem to fall in to number blocks... IE The Oberth Class has Number block 600 and 700 reserved for any ships constructed. The Intrepid Class has the 74600- whatever etc etc Not all numbers will be filled and some might go over in to another block. In Trek Registry numbers should be considered no more than an identification number for a specific starship... It can never be used to determine age or considered chronological. And thank you very much!

[@ericmadsen7470]

What if the TMP Enterprise or Enterprise-A had what the Quazer class has in defensive and offensive technology?

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

What if?
