Taiyo Showroom Model: full build guide! Small but FAST ship! (Starfield)

I really liked the Taiyo showroom model ship, but was unable to buy it. Instead, I built it myself. In this video I'll show you how you can do that, too!

Note that it's possible to find the "Taiyo Mako" for sale if you're lucky. It's a ship that's close to the showroom model, but there are some differences, notably the engines. I was never able to find it for sale at the places that some people have found it at though.

Mapache de los espacistas es ese modelo la verda me resulto muy platica solo con poner el reator encima cabina Tienes dos modulos dobles en pequeño recipiente yo acabe cambiando armas por 6 cañones particilas de vaguardia y funcionaba genial.

[@oscargarciablesa1462]

Je je yo tambien me enamore de este diseño y lo copie aunque el mio iba armado se pueden poner dos emplazamientos dobres morro entre chasis y esas tomas para fijar armas solo parte inferior o 4 con truquillo forzar fijacion de la toma casi no se ven mio acabo evolucionado asta reator acabo encima cabina y fue armado 6 caloñones vaguardia particulas y dos torres esta su hermana una evolucion de un mapache capturado fueron mis naves preferidas cuando pones un escudo vanguardia es gracioso verlas destruir mostruos de clase c serpentis lo del reator arriba fue para me cabiera dos modulos dobres asi puedes llevar un modulo mando o lo que sea y poder tener esta mini cosa asta 8 tripulantes .

[@djbare9]

Yeah, the sales randomize, when I worked this out I just kept reloading the dame until the ship I was looking for appeared in the list, in my case the Dragon II.

[@DaedalEVE]

I’ve built this twice already. It’s a fun little ship. I substituted a few parts for their more powerful counterparts tho, and used an Osiris 2040-B Shield instead. It has the same look as the Marduk.

[@zulu1520]

Great Job!!! I always thought the spacer raccon was close to that design.

[@GuidosGaming]

Thank you! Just looked it up - and yes, the Spacer Raccoon looks to be pretty close indeed. Different engines, fuel tanks, shield, and paint job though. And it actually has weapons, too. I've never seen that one for sale either, nor encountered it in combat. Do you remember where you've run into it?

[@zulu1520]

I@@GuidosGaming I see it pretty much everwhere. Sometimes it lands. on planets when you hear that bang in the sky when you first land on a planet!. Usually I'm pretty upset to see it because im looking for a C class ship lol! Other times they will try to loot you for vacation money in space. One graunteed way to see and possible board one is the Starfield: Failure to Communicate mission.

[@GuidosGaming]

Thanks for the info! Have seen all kinds of ships land, but no Spacer Raccoon yet! I tend to mostly run into Ecliptic landing on planets somehow. Still need to do the mission you mentioned, will make sure to check it out soon!

[@reckage668]

Spacer raccoon is the spacer version of the combat variant of the showroom floor display, the closest you can buy is the taiyo mako, versions up to mk III from veronica depending on RNG, but all of them are armed and have slight differences. i ended up buying the mako and later making a version of it from each manufacturer, the diemos "totally not a mako copy" looked the best.

[@miranmashadi-aka-Grewitch]

Great video! I fell in love with this ship when I saw the model and wanted to make one for myself. You've made my work so much easier. I hope you get to design your modified version, I look forward to seeing it.

[@GuidosGaming]

Glad I could help! I'm currently working on other ships first, but I might do another video on this one once I get to upgrading/modifying it!

[@SegwayBossk]

I stole myself a Spacer Raccoon, doubled the engines on it, decorated it a little bit, pit a slim docker on the bottom, and put 4 class B electron beams on it. Its similar in size to this, has 699 hull and absolutely destroys everything

[@GuidosGaming]

Nice!

[@theonlyone38]

thank you so very much! I've been looking around for this.

[@jasonck9635]

This was the exact ship I saw during the trailer in a scene but it was a diff color ! And I said I want it ! And I’m glad you felt the same and show how to make it ! 🙌

[@johnmonahan6647]

Haha, that's a cool little ship.

[@sunnymondays6106]

This doubles as a great first build video. Very easy to follow and you don't have to invest a fortune to make it. Thank you for making such an ace video! 🙂👍

[@matthewmiller7638]

Love this video id just like to add that i used this as my way to repurpose the frontiers unique hab. Big fan of the minimalist style great job showing everyone how to make this awesome work of art.

[@DaedalEVE]

Just built this for myself. Neat little ship.

[@nywolf9798]

Thanks, always wanted to make it.

[@NaughtyShepherd]

I did the exact same thing 😂 I took screenshots and recreated it, it’s sooo fast and nimble, I can run circles around enemy ships 🙌🏼 Great video sir!

[@GuidosGaming]

Nice! Yeah I just love the look (Taiyo ships are the best looking ships IMO), and it's a pretty fast too! This is my 'fancy sports car' so to speak. But you can go way faster still. I just built a ship that does about twice the speed of this one, and built specifically for combat! So much fun to fly. Video on that coming soon by the way!

[@NaughtyShepherd]

@@GuidosGaming I upgraded some parts: A-class Ion Beam H-1030 reactor, R-4000 Grav Drive, 60S Protector Shield, 4 White Dwarf 3030 Engines, 6 Vanguard Oblit-Autopros, and 2 Vaporizer 35MeV Auto Proton Beams. I had to add those flat utility mounts to the top of the engines to have all 6 Vanguard weapons. My top speed with boost is 933 cruise speed is 233 and my reactor is at 32 output because of perks and a crew of 6. My mass is only 618 so I can stop from full speed in just a couple seconds making it really easy to get behind ships for attacks.

[@IceMan2035]

Cool ship all I would add is shielded cargo hidden by the engines. I'd also add in another reactor and drive plus load it up with weapons.

[@theonlyone38]

Also, if I were to modify this I would put 3015 class A engines, the fastest ones in the game. I would make it specifically a class A ship to make it the fastest.

[@manug2508]

Same, however i'd go for the SA-4330 Engines, as you can keep the look more similar by using 4 angled versions. Of course the reactor needs to change for that too, but that's not a problem, it should do well with the 30 - power class A reactor (can't remember the name atm).

[@TheAgentAssassin]

I have a "taiyo mako II" for sale in my game. Looks almost identical to the show room model. $150k

[@boyblunder8889]

I saw it for sale this evening at the Taiyo office on Neon , where rayjun offices are , access via the lift. It was in the buy ships section after speaking to that woman, pretty sure it was a Mako II or something, price was around 450,000 credits if I remember, can’t check at the moment, console is off 👍

[@GuidosGaming]

Yeah, the Taiyo Mako ship is very close to the showroom model, but I've never seen it being sold myself. I've even tried waiting/sleeping to see if the ships in stock update, but keep getting the same ships. 450K is insanely expensive though! I spent way less than that on the one I built in the video.

[@boyblunder8889]

I had a look at it , it’s a Mako III , the engines are different from the model in the showroom, details as below in case you’re interested 👍 thanks for the build video 👍 Mako III Class A 30 LY - Range Shield - 1296 Crew - 4 Cargo - 533 Fuel - 140 Hull - 890 Reza 30 THz IR pulse Laser x 2 KE-31A Autocannon x 2 Infiltrator SC-02 Missile Launcher x 1 White dwarf 3030 Engine x 2 60S Protector Shield Generator R-400 Alpha Grav Drive Tokamak X-300 Reactor Cost - 247,000 credits Where? - Taiyo office , Neon , Rayjun Industries building , use the elevator in the lobby

[@Its_Steeeve]

My boy has nothing but female companions. I like your style bro!

[@GuidosGaming]

LOL, thanks, but I've got Heller on the ship as well. Also, there's a quest related reason Barrett isn't here, and I'd have Sam Coe in the ship more often if Cora didn't annoy me so much.

[@markypea]

I just hijacked one of these, called Spacer Raccoon II! Although it was a mustard colour.

[@GuidosGaming]

Nice! It's very close to this ship, but there are some differences. Haven't run into one of those myself yet.

[@markypea]

@@GuidosGaming Oh yes, you're right, the engines are different, it loses some of its cute appeal.

[@oscargarciablesa1462]

El mapache es clase a y esta es clase b ambas me gustan mucho su estilo mini sumarino su mañor pobrema de ambas es fijacion armas y carga ya tienes poco sitios fijar sin truquitos la del video solo puede llevar 8 armas y una estiba trasera o cuatro con tres cajas de carga se puede fijar otro soporte dobre entre clasis y las tomas frontales poder poner dos armas delgadas estilo cañon particulas en puestos de abajo sin dañar estetica de la nave ya que casi no ves cañones y quedan muy bien estrañamente ambas un poco pleparadas me funcionan muy bien en combate . Ya lo de pocas armas puede sea poblema mio estoy acostunbrado tener 12 armas como minimo montadas 😅

[@assfish111]

You can capture a spacer raccoon that looks pretty close to this one

[@markypea]

Lol - I just went to her to build this ship and she has 39 ships for sale, one of them is the Mako II, another the Mako, which looks very similar. Saves me the effort I suppose, if not taking away some of the fun!

[@GuidosGaming]

Wow, 39 ships? Every time I try it's only the same 5 ships, and I haven't found a Mako yet. Are you really high level or something? I'm wondering if some of the ships being sold are level-locked. But yeah, definitely easier to get a Mako and convert it than to build it from scratch.

[@markypea]

@@GuidosGaming level 50 now. She usually has the same five or seven ships for me too, plus some of what I've sold her recently. I felt like I'd unlocked something, as with this character I've just been boarding spacers and stealing their ships and selling them, so I go to her a lot.

[@markypea]

I wonder if it's a bug, as I just went to Deimos to check how many they have for sale, and it's a measly four. Oh also, I should have read all of the other comments before I commented saying that same thing! I was too excited I guess lol!

[@TheAgentAssassin]

Are there any A class grav drives with more than 27??

[@ayakoyuuta]

I guess that is because Neon ship technician got launch outside the neon, cause no one find out how to buy this ship which Spacer used this.

[@steveandalmapalazzolo963]

Reminds me a bit of the Defiant from Deep Space 9.

[@GuidosGaming]

Had to look that one up, but yeah, I see some resemblance!

[@knightsofazeroth]

Just have to take over a Spacer Raccoon and change the engines

[@haveaknifeday]

Have you weaponized it since the video?

[@GuidosGaming]

Not yet, but you can use any weapons you like - some weapons are objectively better than others, but a lot of it is personal preference as well. I mostly made this one because I like how it looks, and for the challenge of building it. I'm using another ship (heavily modified Kepler R) most of the time, because I've got way more cargo than this ship can hold. And I'm working on another ship right now that is going to be specialized for combat - video coming soon!

[@HariSupriono]

Ever wondered what it'd feel like to closely recreate a car from SEMA Show? This is your answer Edit: Also why do I hear the Tayo theme song in my head? Edit 2: Also how about you do the Deimos showroom model next? Too bad it's all white instead of the Taiyo Sardine's fully colored model, but i'm sure you can figure out which components go where

[@TheDlaw84]

I stole a spacer racoon III and it was exactly the same as the showroom ship.

[@SoloHuemun]

The original Taiyo ship you see in the showcase is a 'Sparrow'

[@GuidosGaming]

Really? Where does it say that? I tried finding out if it had a particular name, but couldn't find any info on it. Edit: looked it up, but looks like the Sparrow is another (small) Taiyo ship; www.starfielddb.com/ships/sparrow/

[@oscargarciablesa1462]

Aunque lo tuyo para mejorar la frontier esta bastante bien es algo sencillo economico no aconsejaría poner un taller en la nave si no cualquier modulo con un caja de 160 capacida como arsenal ciertas marcas ,, tarde en mi partida descubri lo mejor era cojer todo materiales y ojetos de la bodega aterrizar diretamente en la logia y guardar todo materiales y ojetos en cajita de soltano encima mesa con capacidad infinita y cuando boy usar taller uso el de misma abitacion estan todo mismo sitio asi cuando lleno bodega ago eso cuando quiero mejoral un arma o lo que sea saco materiales de la caja tengo barios cientos miles kilos ya esta eso me permite ir con una nave 1500 de carga tranquilo no usar mi anterior montruo de 10,000 seria consejo daria cualquier novato mañoria estan de los nervios con sobrepeso .

[@NaughtyShepherd]

After playing for 440+ hours I totally agree with you about not storing 1000s of mass in cargo on your ship. The game seems to have issues with loading on planets when your ship is carrying so many objects. That said, having everything in that box at the lodge can lead to issues as well. It seems as if the game has to do some kind of inventory check when you load into an area that stores 1000s of items. I would suggest picking a planet or moon that you don’t need to visit often and start a base to store and upgrade your gear.

[@oscargarciablesa1462]

​@@NaughtyShepherd eso empece acer pero los asentamientos me dan bastante pobremas llege a tener un edificio lleno cajas sabes de un bug te elimina los beneficios de abilidades ese me esta atormentando este seguro me quito el de la velocidad de naves me a perseguido a una nueva partidad.

[@bigpapasmurf55]

Isn't this the same as the spacer raccoon ii?

[@GuidosGaming]

The Spacer Raccoon is close! Different engines, fuel tank, shield, and color. So if you can find one, it's easy to convert that to get the Taiyo showroom model - if that's what you want.

[@bigpapasmurf55]

@@GuidosGaming I wish, but all the spacer ships are bugged and will fly/attack on its own

[@wetbobspongepants]

Talk about a ship with balls...and it's speedy.

[@IVAO04ify]

Grav Drive and Reactors are a joke with how big they are, they take up so much space on all ships.

[@GuidosGaming]

Yeah, I get what you're saying. I'm always trying to hide those when designing ships, but in a small ship like this, that's not really an option.

[@michael-kc7el]

The spacer raccoon is very close

[@GuidosGaming]

Thanks, hopefully I'll run into one soon - I'll make sure to steal it! I actually want another one of these anyway, because I've got some ideas on how to modify and expand on it a little bit. And if I can find another one, I can keep the one I built myself stock.

[@michael-kc7el]

@@GuidosGaming the raccoon is the ship I use the most

[@michael-kc7el]

Forgot to ask the price tag to build this

[@GuidosGaming]

Hi, here's the full breakdown: I spent 106222 (Veronica) + 8751 (Ship Services Tech) = 114973 credits total. But got 8143 credits for 'selling'/deleting the UC prison shuttle, so the parts I bought cost me 114973+8143 = 123116 credits (123K). I've got level 2 in the Commerce skill, so I think that means I get a 10% discount for all parts. I picked all the best possible parts that fit the look of the showroom model, but you can also pick cheaper parts that look exactly the same. Going for the lower end parts can save you a lot. For instance, you can pick the Samurai Cockpit for only 3630 credits, whereas the Himeji Command Bridge that I used cost 23181 credits. You can also save money on the engines, reactor, grav drive, and shield if you pick the cheaper option. If you pick the cheapest option for all of those, you can probably save around 40K or so. Hope that helps!
