I know the noob ships can't go into hyper space. My question is what crafted item allows you to go hyperspace? Is it any engine or is there a particular level/enhancement to provides the hyper drive? I noticed there is no "hyper drive" craftable component. Thx for the help

at minimum you need a player crafted ship, a reactor either loot or crafted, and a engine either loot or crafted.
course if you want missiles, lasers, shields, armour, capacitor, droid interface, boosters those are all extras.

yeah + crafted ship. that was the minimum in beta just to use the travel option and hyper. they may or may not have added a capacitor as a requirement to launch. i spent all yesterday evening leveling shipwright and tending harvestors havent been to space yet!!!

Technically, any player crafted chassis has the hyperdrive already installed.
You still need the reactor and engine to get it into space.

no. you only need a droid or comp if you want to adjust your shield setting energy setting and weapon settings. they arent needed for ship flight or hyperspace. i typically dont bother with em at least for now. maybe when i get a ship i care about in the tier 3-4 rane ill opt for a flight computer. but for now its a waste of mass.

You certainly didn't during beta, I never bothered to install a computer or droid interface into any ship I was flying.
But like someone else has already commented, I spent all day yesterday working on shipwright and haven't been able to get into space yet.

I understand that I myself was doing that as well, still not flown yet. Sheesh I have not even made me my own ship yet lol, just helping friends and people who hit me up for a chasis!
