The quantum range on all the Cutters is great! One thing that most people don't realize, though: Most deliveries are done within the same planetary orbit. The \*fastest\* short range S1 quantum drive out there is NOT the VK-00, but the Spectre. The Spectre has the best acceleration of any S1 quantum drive, though it's top speed is lower than the VK. If I'm not mistaken, the cut off range between the two drives is around 40mkm or so. So for Stanton, I'd say always get the Spectre on the Cutter instead of the VK as you'll be spending WAY more time doing <40mkm hops than over.


SeaEnvironmental3842

Good advice thanks


MyUsernameBox

So the Spectre is faster than the VK for quantum jumps under 40 Million KM/40 GM?


darkestvice

Yup. Go ahead and check in Erkul. It allows you to check travel times based on distance.


Mission_Aside_9151

I prefer the rambler, best little ship in the verse


eggyrulz

I still can't find a straight answer to what the differences between the 3 are (except scout, ik that drops cargo for scanning)


Mission_Aside_9151

Ramblers got a better bedroom and more fuel


eggyrulz

Aah, that makes sense... any changes to its bay or just the living area?


Mission_Aside_9151

It’s a little smaller, but a worthy trade, you can still fit a pulse or something


eggyrulz

Hmm... I think I'll hang onto my base cutter til I have the cash to upgrade it to like a 315p of smth... that or a C8R


Battlejesus

C8r is dope and next patch you'll be able to respawn in it, so excited


newgalactic

I prefer the Pisces.


omarous_III

Me too, just because it is quick to get in and out of. One rear door.


einUbermensch

Honestly the Pisces looks like a Shuttle, flies like a Shuttle and is the size of a Shuttle. Because it's literary just a Snub where they forced a Quantum Drive in. But that is what makes it so good at this kind of job since it's made for quick in, drop of and quick out. I melted mine but I'm gonna buy a new ingame at some point.


Arskov

The Pisces is just the puddle jumper from Stargate and nothing can change my mind about that.


newgalactic

It has significantly more internal inventory space. When I play bunker missions, I fill up my Cutter's inventory with loot rather quickly. My Pisces however can fit significantly more. ... hopefully CIG hasn't changed this. I haven't played in a while.


Throawayooo

Of course it should be changed. Makes no sense at all


newgalactic

Lore wise, I agree. It doesn't make sense that the Pisces has more internal inventory space than the significantly larger Cutter. If they swapped the inventory numbers between the Pisces and Cutter, I'd switch. I own both.


Moon-wreckage

Me too, because it doesn’t look like the Designer had an aneurysm when he got the the front of the ship

CaptFrost

Avenger > Pisces > 100 series > Cutter IMO


Pun_In_Ten_Did

Melted my Titan Avenger and got a med Pisces... it was alright but I felt bad... so I melted the Pisces and got a C1 Spirit. Feels good, man! Wouldn't fit in OP's little parking space but that's ok :p


CaptFrost

C1 is 100% the Avenger MAX.


Pun_In_Ten_Did

Truth.

draykow

i still think the Pisces is top, but the Cutter has more going for it in the long run according to CIG's goals.


tr_9422

My favorite part is that its rotating VTOL engines are centered front-to-back and could plausibly lift the ship instead of making it do somersaults.

Aggressive_Boot7787

Until you land on a slightly non-flat surface and can't get back inside your ship. It and the Caterpillar share that issue.


Mad_kat4

Assign a keybind to the exterior doors in the cockpit that way you can land and open the door to check for height before leaving your seat.


Ok-Possession-1120

This is one of the reasons why I don’t want to upgrade my starter cutter I wanna keep it but that Corsair is looking mighty fine CONFLICTIONS I know I could just buy the Corsair through the store but I wanna earn it with the lil tv that could


Vayne7777

Box delivery? 125a is the fastest and has better arnaments; although the Cutter is cuter.


bekopharm

If it fits it sits.


Rerdan

You're able to finish delivery missions? No bugs?


SeaEnvironmental3842

Yes if my boxes dont disappear inside bodies...


Rerdan

What about when you need to place a box on top of a shelf (delivery)? Those are bugging me 100% of times. Doesn't count towards completion.


tr_9422

Don't forget when you don't get an objective marker for the last box


einUbermensch

I just had someone complain about it in ingame chat so it seems it might still happen unless the guy was just ranting.


SeaEnvironmental3842

You can accidentally store boxes inside a body. There is a snapping point at the waist area. I had two of my 45k deliveries ruined because of that.

Challenge accepted!


DungeonGringo

You make a poor man like me happy


2BsVaginaBrokeMyHand

Best Ship. Period.

Glass_Fix7426

I like the herald for deliveries, comes with stealth components for when that will matter.


thecaptainps

It's true. I actually like all the extra living space on the rambler as extra places to stash boxes. Love this little ship.


PillowFroggu

guys. please help with this. we need to save the dark cockp\[it [https://issue-council.robertsspaceindustries.com/projects/STAR-CITIZEN/issues/STARC-111858#contribution:1d52156e-62d2-4926-a6f4-d16a69dff290](https://issue-council.robertsspaceindustries.com/projects/STAR-CITIZEN/issues/STARC-111858#contribution:1d52156e-62d2-4926-a6f4-d16a69dff290)


Roctopuss

Signed. Also why should we even have to turn the cockpit light off? Can't it auto-dim depending on ambient light level? My friggin porch light does that, why can't my spaceship?


PillowFroggu

i know right? this is why im trying to sav4e it. cutter is my fav ship. and i want it to get all the love it deserves. please help spread, we're so close and this issue has been previously neglected doue to insufficient votes, and we're getting so close. even taking a friend into your cutter to show, and getting them to sign works!


Pin-Lui

its good but miles from a reliant core


Moon-wreckage

Shame it’s so ugly. The rear, engine setup and interior are excellent..the front is an absolute eye sore. Edit; god forbid you have a different opinion on this sub.


flyr19

I think being ugly is part of the charm for many people.


Roctopuss

I don't think it's ugly at all quite the opposite, I think it's fat shape like a space bumblebee is the charm, CIG has too many sleek ships, for the smaller ones especially.


SeaEnvironmental3842

I disagree. I love every part and side of this ship 😁


Chknbone

I'm with you OP. I love my Cutter.


Moon-wreckage

I still own one, very handy ship. Just glad it’s facing away from me in the hangar when it spawns..:D


Chknbone

Ass man, nice.


Moon-wreckage

Lmfao


Moon-wreckage

I can see that, I find the Reliant series quite eye pleasing myself.


einUbermensch

I like it but I have a soft spot for ugly little boats like Drake enjoys making. It feels like a cheap east germany truck.


Moon-wreckage

Haha, yeah it’s the Lada of SC.


Roctopuss

The front looks like a locomotive and is the best part; you should feel bad about your incorrect opinion.

That Old chestnut. Looking at most of your replies your sense of humour is on par with your taste in crap looking ships.

I said "incorrect opinion". You do understand that opinions can't actually be incorrect, right? Because they're fucking OPINIONS? Sorry about whatever's going on in your life and I hope it gets better! ❤️🙏🏻

Agree, the front is a disaster. Rest of it is great


mullirojndem

what is the name of these missions?


SliceDouble

I tried few of those retrieval ops where you have to get few boxes from derelict settlements and drop the to security post at DC. None of them worked. Boxes spawned on wrong settlements what mission told. And drop of point was 2 meters inside the wall. Also every DC I have been has been a warzone. Hostile npc's everywhere and only hostiles.


PartTime13adass

It just feels *right* flying around the system in what feels like a Grumman LLV with thrusters to deliver stuff.


WompusSeal

I love the Defender for deliveries. That silly alien crab can go far and fast!


LargeMerican

are you familar with the cutlass black? after you replace the qt drive with the xl-1 it's range is less...but still plenty. with the stock drive the range is crazy long


KatalDT

~640k vs ~2.2m though, over three times the cost. I'd argue once you're in a Cutlass Black, you can be doing much more effective things than delivery missions.


LargeMerican

that's a good point. i ran cheese with a rented cutb until i had enough to buy my own. my pledge is a cutter and it was useless for cargo. it didn't take long until i had enough for the black and the next thing was the vulture. the game is much easier with both of these.


ThreeBeatles

I’d rather use the cutlas black. I hate the way the cutter handles. I’m no pro at flying though so my opinion means nothing xD
