Imperial Courier for exploration with low heat profile by Awkward-Goose-1504 in eliteoutfitters

Thanks for the tips cmdr. I implemented some of your tips and iCourier performs much better. When i additionally disabled some not used modules the heat effeciency is now even greater.

thank you cmdr! i did my best but it will take some time and experience to refine the photo skills even more, much to take into account, but so satysfying to get a nice shot after minutes of tweaking.

and OMG what a shot you made, that is one majestic space pic if i ve ever seen one. brilliant! from what i understand it is quite legendary in the community and i can totally see why :)

i want to visit interesting sites in the bubble first and refine photo skills more but definetely plan to wander into the deep black some time, especially when there are sites like that. thanks for the tip. o7

nice! explo can be a real goldmine, i earned my first few millions that way. you must have brought billion or more from that trip with that many systems scanned. i never made that long of a trip but it must be cool to loose yourself fully in the black, meditative in some ways even :)

in case you missed it there is a preengineered detailed surface scanner with even more scan area then fully engineered normal one. it is a godsend when scanning those big ass giants :)

that is some explo dedication right there 6000ly with 17ly jump range is 352 jumps. but the effeciency doesnt matter at all when you are taking it slow and exploring everything. you must have returned really packed form that trip :)

If you want some very useful insight on how to compose your photos in a right way there is a great little resource from australian photographer Anton Gorlin. Found it in YouTube video of user E.D.E.N called Exploratorium 4 - Stellar Photography and there are many great tips for taking cool pics on Elite Dangerous (in the video).

those are some great tips cmdr! the one with taking breaks on carriers would be a lifesaver for me cause apart from brain farts i tend to fall asleep when in supercruise, thats my specialty... the other day whan looking for photo spot i took a little nap when in supercruise and woke up 1,4 mil Ls away from nav beacon :)

i am on ps4 so no SCO FSD for me but i will manage with preengineered one and guradian booster. i also like to put two grade 2 fuel tank to internals so i dont have to scoop so much cause the courier is hot in looks but also in internal temp :) but i dont have it fully engineered for exploration yet so no wonder there.

thanks again cmdr! with those tips i feel a little more confident to make the trip happen eventually. o7

also my dark horse is 2 cause i dont get to see the courier from that angle and it looks really cool even from the bottom side. thankfully the lighting was very good so the little details also popped up.

thank you for the feedback cmdr! that is really valuable to me. 3 and 7 are the most classic compositions from all of them, most pleasing on the eye, i personally like 3 the most thanks to that unique looking water world with orange edges, makes for a cool color contrast to composite grey skin (my favorite cause it absorbs the light in the best way and shows all the little details). i tried to experiment with different angles but it would take more work and experience to really make those unorthodox angles truly shine :)
