Some numbers, engines in ascending order (260, 265, 270, 275)
speed: 92.7 94.4 96.2 98.0
weight: 19.5 20 20.5 21.5 (note the extra weight for the extra in-engine heat sink for 275)
I suppose the 270 and 275 will picked most.
You'll get 4.5 Kph more for 1 ton and 5.3 Kph for 2 tons.
Here's a funny thing with the 275 engine. The 275 engine has one in-engine heat sink. If you have 11-13 slots free you can remove a heat sink and take the Fero upgrade. That will free up one ton, so the bigger engine almost pays for itself.
My hunchies were always around that 12 slots free point, so i thought i'd share this with you.
What would you do with a 98 Kph HBK?
The classic 4SP with less heatsinks and bigger engine
Swap some med lasers for small ones in the 4P
or?
Share your ideas for >260 engine HBKs
I tried a fully mastered 4SP with a 275 engine.... that thing twists like a jenner now, wow.
