I can get an Engine with a top speed of like 76, the problem is that the rest of the manuverability stats are in the 40's, what should I do?

Whats the Mass and Level of the Componet... thats the most important thing if you want to know if its going to turn out decent after RE'ing

It's crafted, It's a Mark III engine. I don't think you can RE crafted stuff, I forgot the mass.

Sounds like a player made engine, which always has YPR stats in the 40s. I would try and get a nice looted one while you level up, which will probably have lower speed but isnt truly as needed as the ability to turn.

It sounds like a crafted one to me. It will get you buy but its turn rate will really suck. Collect 6 level 6 engines and get them RE"d and you will have a much better engine with about the same top speed but with YPR in the 60's.

Yeah, when I made the jump from my starter engine to my better engine I noticed rolling and turning to be much easyer and effective. I was just wondering if speed will make up for any of the loss in manuverability.....

In some cases it can. Also you can tighten your turning with your throttle. Like driving a big truck or something. It is good for making runs on gunboats since they're not very manuverable, highYPR is not that neccessary for making runs on gunboats- top speed is the main factor in this case.

I'm great with alternating the throttle (thank you X-wing VS TIE Fighter), but I'm going after A-wings and not gunboats, hell slow big crap is easy to just rip to shreds.


My Current Engine is like 54 speed and the rest of the stats in the lower mid 50's with roll being I believe at 58...........

you definately need an RE'd engine thenat least lev 4. Lev 4 engineRE'd will get you an engine thats about 65 top speed and about the same YPR- 60 some. Lev 6 engine RE'dyou can get about 80 top speed with 60 some YPR. The best crafted YPRs are only like high 50's.
