So I bought one yesterday and so far it's has good mass, good turning and speed. A question.
Picture of the Firespray -- Here in the top left shows a different angle of the firepsray, any way to fly in this angle? Right now if I zoom out all the way I can't see in front of me at 1280x1024 resolution, my friends also say it's huge and I cover my friends Oppressor,Interceptor if I get 0m from them...
A few comments.
This thing is huge, I've never been up close to one (I'll have to next time I disable one with my other ship) someone asked me if it was a MP ship. Too bad it isn't as in Episode 2 there was a small cockpit. Even if single player ship it would be fun to walk around it.
Only thing that I am disappointed about is the fact it only has 2 guns, same as my Opressor. Although the mass is bigger, but the B-Wing has about 240k mass, and from what I have seen the firespray is a HUGE ship... Why doesn't it have more mass?

The B-Wing has 240k mass and it seems the Firespray is bigger then the B-wing, so why less mass?

1st No you can not change the FSP´s angle.

Because the Firespray can only mount 2 guns... the B-Wing can do 4. Imagine having to work with 40k mass less and 4 guns!

Maybe better to drive, but not necessarily better to fight in. Bwings dish out far more punishment and are harder to hit than the "flying iron"

I mainly use a TIE Bomber, I dont think its that bad with a high manuverability engine. Mine is currently 75, 65, 65PYR I think. It handles just as well as a Kimogila.

as for the size of the firespray there is a web site that took images of the different ships and using the dimensions listed for them scaled the images appropriately. it turns out that a firespray is almost the same size as a YT-1300, so no they really aren't small and as stated above in the stories they are MP ships.

The KSE is huge? How do you figure that? Each ship has a different default view distance when viewed from the outside, so how are you comparing? I have both the Firespray and YT-1300 and while there is a greater default view distance with the YT-1300, it is NOT even close to being as small as the KSE. The KSE had a very close default view distance is all.

Because When 0 meters from my friends Oppressor or aggressor, etc I'm 3 times the size?
