Ok i just started production on Unproggramed Modules for sale for astromechs. I know what they do i am a pilot. But i do not know or understand the purpose and role of the Flight Computers. Do they serve same purpose of a droid but slower? Or what?


thanks in advance

Flight computers only serve one purpose and function. They hold programmed abilities and enable a pilot to use them. You put these abilities in them by programming ("burning") Unprogrammed Droid Modules and then transferring the ability chip to the Flight Computer.

Droids enabled with an Astromech module also perform this function the exact same way. (Only for Rebel ships, though, I believe)

Look at it this way: Astromechs are specialized flight computers that only fit into x-wing/y-wing/Z95 ships. They both take command modules and function the same.

Yeah only the Z-95, X-Wing, and Y-Wing use the Astromech/Data module. Every other ship uses a Flight Computer. Everything takes burned abilities that you get from Unprogrammed Droid Modules, yep.
