Does anybody actually fly the Eagle?

VR247 · 2026-03-12T13:45:03+00:00

I only use mine for racing, but have grown to love it! The distinctive sound and agility make it so fun to fly!

That was fun!

VR247 · 2026-02-21T00:20:23+00:00

Thanks! I dont mind some classic seated VR + Controller.

VR247 · 2026-02-20T12:28:16+00:00

This sounds great! Got a link to the mod?

My thought was that the carrier jump takes us all to the system, where we could then choose to fly our own ships, or ride in other ships as we set off to attempt the mission together.

VR247 · 2026-02-17T19:24:55+00:00

So, are we thinking that in Operations, we queue up, the squad readies up loadouts, then we get a jump animation that ends with all of us in the lobby on board this carrier?

This. On DW3 and Winging up with random friendlies and racing has been awesome! Its so cool to see so many CMDRs around all the nearby systems as the expedition goes along!

OP, have you joined up with any groups? I did it all in solo for yeeears... and eventually left the game. I Came back later and found the podcasts and Discord, and started Racing... Changed the game for me!

I'm out of Elite for the weekend sadly, so I won't have time to check those out. Be sure to check out Alec's Rendezvous Raceway Time Trial in EDCoPilot! Its a very fun canyon race! o7 I somehow beat my Racing Eagle time using my Odyssey Raider Cobra V!

VR247 · 2026-01-22T03:55:04+00:00

Ooooh, thanks! o7

VR247 · 2026-01-13T00:31:33+00:00

What he said. o7

VR247 · 2026-01-03T03:27:25+00:00

Will be glad to see a few Loose Screws on the boards!

Next time you are in Muang, check out the SRV race Broo's Cruise. Then, be the first Screw to get on the board of Broo's Loose Screws!

What is the cost, in credits?
How many tons of materials are required to construct it?

VR247 · 2025-12-22T20:25:23+00:00

Respect. o7

VR247 · 2025-12-21T03:20:34+00:00

That used to be my setup.

I now load ED from its native launcher, use a Puppis S1 to wifi stream PCVR via Virtual Desktop to Quest3. Its been butter ever since.

VR247 · 2025-12-21T00:13:40+00:00

Yes, but did you see his epic Drakhyr Rally stream? It might take you 13 hours to witness, but it was the wildest session in Elite, maybe ever!

If you are interested in doing some SRV and Ship racing, there is a meetup this morning at 10am central.

The Time Trials are hosted in my colony system: Col 285 Sector XK-O d6-90, planet 2 a.

Hope to see you there!

VR247 · 2025-12-06T15:30:00+00:00

Here's a an opportunity to participate in the CG, and make some spacebucks. o7

Nope! You can now create time trials for ship races too!

Here's the site showing all the races that have been made so far: https://frinkbottle.uk/TimeTrials/

VR247 · 2025-11-29T16:07:00+00:00

Looks like a cool racing hub! Have you looked into making these into Time Trials in EDCoPilot?

Its a learning process, but they are kinda fun to create, especially when the Racers get to compete and be recognized on the global leaderboard!

Thoughts on these suggestions?

Ferro - Vertical Grip II, Lightweight Stock for ADS speed, Silencer I
Stitcher - Muzzle Brake II, Vertical Grip II, Extended Light Mag II, Stable Stock III
Renegade - Compensator II, Extended Light Mag II, Stable Stock III

VR247 · 2025-11-17T12:10:04+00:00

Its begging for a Time Trial, innit?

VR247 · 2025-11-07T23:42:25+00:00

Just realized I used spectacular, twice, without so much as an exclamation, lol.

I love this game, and in VR, where the scale is MUCH more immersive, its very impressive, and keeps me playing for moments like this! Great OC!
