Well was doing a custom job for a guy who wanted to get into mining but be super manuverable. sadly he is only 2322 so best I could go with him was Mark 4 BUT
Here is the engine I made and I am rather proud of it.
P65.7
Y65.8
R65.2
Speed 87.3
I put it all into PYR. Mind you I am a 17.5 Engine SW and I did it using the new ent buffs but I did not use any foods (haven't gotten any yet but got an order in for them /grin)
What do you all think?

You must have had some amazing successes in there, that turned out pretty good. I would have put 8 points into pitch and yaw and 1 into roll or speed though. That would have made it 67.5+ pitch and yaw with a low 57.5-58 roll.

Not a bad idea. But my experience when I am in the middle of dog fighting some of those pain in the arse missions (10+ enemies) being able to twist turn and dive quickly is a god send. So that is what I look at.
Perhaps I will look at making 2 engines and seeing which actually flies better. After all only through trial and error do we become better right?
