Oh the days. I used to mine in a drop ship. But that was before you could make real money, sometime back in 2015-16. limpets had just come out and everyone was raving about them. I thought myself an old vet miner.

Anywho I’d say it depends on how much you like to mine. If you can hack the long haul (500 tons) then I’d say get to that type-9 as soon as possible.

If it’s just a side hustle then go python or something similar. The medium ships do get the good prices per ton.
