Interview/chat after Fan Fest indicated that they're working on revamping the Y-8 so that it'll be a capable multi-person mining ship. More waiting, I guess.

I'm back after three monthes and I wonder if the Y8 works now and if you still need a crew to use it?

It flies. Does that count? And yes, its a POB ship, so it "still" requires a crew.

Turret placement is the same, so it's still pretty much useless for mining, if that's what you're asking.
