I am always blown away when people can make CVs look like SVs and still but important devices on board in such limited space, respect!

[@lyfeforse7038]

Thank you Lee

[@lyken4]

Very sleek design, I honestly thought it was a sv. And it's bigger on the inside too. Very nice

[@lyfeforse7038]

Thank you Lyken :)

[@pfelia89]

I can only echo what others have said; love the way it looks, its low profile and the cockpit. Nice piece.

[@lyfeforse7038]

Thank you. Yes, I wanted a sleek low profile for it, rather than something bulky.

[@cptcaveman1]

Love it, and really enjoyed your build streams of it. (Especially the naming part and the "Ace up your sleeve" texture part) :D

[@lyfeforse7038]

haha shh :)

Beautiful Design.

Thank you Torsten!

[@VulpisFoxfire]

Not bad...the only other thing missing on it that I would want on a starter is space for a set of growing blocks (I'd also want a full set of medical devices, but those can be stored and swapped in and out as needed.)

[@lyfeforse7038]

Yeah, that was the challenge with it... resisting the urge to build bigger. I have starter ships, and there's a whole library of them from other authors. The point here was to make a cheap shuttle that could be forgivable if you choose to discard it for a mid range CV, or just something to link you up with other faction mates.

Is good looking design, i tried this cv but it did not convinced me, it works only i very early begining but it quickly reach its limits .

[@lyfeforse7038]

Then it worked as intended 🥳. I have starter CVs as do practically every other builder. What I wanted in my catalogue was a ship that could give people the option to move to another destination quickly and affordably (with style), before moving on to a more dedicated starter or even mid game CV. The reasons for people wanting such a shuttle vary from linking up with other players/faction mates, to seeking out more resource rich planets for more dedicated CV spawning options. As a builder, believe me it was a struggle to fight bloating the build to accommodate greater longevity, but if I did that i'd just end up with another Taurus or Gozanti, and lose the point of having a build that gives the player a cheap micro CV option. That being said, I do have a "Super Kestrel" planned, which is a slightly bigger build with a few more turrets and space for a full size shield :)

[@sebnewbirt6331]

Thanks for answer, the copit roof is very thin and when i spawned this cv on starter planet (i dont rember well it was either Anvil-Re or HWS-RE server) i got immediately attacked by drones, till i refueled and loaded the weapons the drones dealed significant damage to the CV Hull espacially the copit roof.for my tast it needs a bit more armore to withstand drone attacks in early game when yo still do not have shields. But i like the design, its looks cool

[@1982Andrewj]

what happen to that Frigate

[@lyfeforse7038]

Still working on it 😉

@@lyfeforse7038 Very Nice Starter

[@bigkahuna8920]

There a good way to upgrade its fuel capacity? or upgrade it existing tank to a large?

[@lyfeforse7038]

I guess you'd just have to use one of the placements in the compartment.. maybe one designated for shield extender

[@Billy_West]

I have seen another youtuber use the paint gun (even in regular play) where he copies colors and textures with a click of a button. HOW THE HELL DO YOU DO THAT!...lol. I looked at key binds and didn't see it. I might just be blind but in nearly 1.5K hours I never seen that before!

[@lyfeforse7038]

ctrl+right click when you have the paint tool out and looking at what you want to copy
