Well.....I finally got my hands on vertex last night and made a planetary survey droid. I got 7 uses and 25 min return time on it. What is the best return time, and best amount of uses that can be obtained on these? And for thoses DEs that are selling these, what stat do your customers ask for most (time or use) and how much are you charging them for these droids?
Thanks

I've gotten 10-11 uses with about a 36 min. return time.
I'm not sure about the min/max. on these yet but I'd think it is 15 uses and maybe 15 min.

Thanks RTK421
I guess I'll shoot for at least 10 uses, so customers can survey each planet with one droid. A few more mins. added to return mail probably wont be a big issue.

As for the price... I charge 1k per use, with the first use free. This means my 9 use droids cost 8k.
Seems a fair trade as a return ticket to some of the planets can easily cost more...

People are caring much more about #of uses than amount of time. My balanced first run 8charges, 35min sold much more slowly than my 12charge stacks.

Yea...I'm seeing uses matter more than return time. I sell 10/11 use sets at 2k per use right now...

I have some 13 charge ones but I've mentioned to customers that I can also make speed vs the charges if they want and most of them are happy with more charges.
