Improve your YPR with engine overload 3 (Do not ever use Engine or weapon Overload 4)
Why? Could that be my problem? I've been trying to use EO4 and WO4 in my Y-8 and it keeps saying my weapon is disabled. Then I can't fix it! Repairing at the station won't being my weapons back online" Anyone know how to fix this?
PS WO4 and EO4 on my Nova seem to work just fine as long as I use RO4 first.
Are you overloading the Y-8's reactor? Are you using an equally powerful reactor?
To correct this, use Emergency Shieldsor Vampiric Repair from the Ops Station, OR go to Deep Space and come back. Any of those will reset your droid commands.
I'm testing POB Components on my Nova Courier at the moment. When the new turrets for the Y-8 go Live, that thing WILL be a PvE battleship.
2800 Point POB Armor, 3500 Point POB Shields front/back and a quintet of Null Bolt Blasters with 4360 max damage, a Spacebomb II launcher with 27k max damage 4 shot missile packs, either an Elite or Y-8 Mining Capacitor with a full suite of Droid Overload proggies on a Type V engine experimented for optimum Yaw and Pitch (which should be comfortably north of the 70 mark with 80 speed).
I'm fiending to kick this b*tch into high gear.

I hooked up my Krayt for mining instead. Now if we could only get those Asteroid stats fixed, and I could have a cargo hold that can take more than 1535.

This is what I would try... RO4, CO4, WO4, EO4 in that order. Every time on the EO4, my mining laser would crap out. After that, if i tried to fire it, it would tell me "weapon is disabled." The same would be true for my lower turret.
I didn't try emergency shields or vrepair. Though I've ever had success with vrepair once. Every other time I've tried to use it I just get "there is not enough difference between your damaged and your non-damaged blah blah..."
By Ops station do you mean the Rebel Dant station? Is this better than say Coronet? And I've not gone to DS yet, so I'd prefer to try it in something i can fly like an X-wing instead of this boat. 
Currently it tells me that everything is 100% (since i did several repairs from core system stations). And the lower turret works fine. But now my mining laser, while it appears to fire for me (the pilot), it does not appear to fire to crew and does not use any cap power. Nor does it actually break off any asteroid chunks.
Hopefully I'll get some useful feedback from my CSR ticket.
