Overdrive OXZ
FE Shipyards
FE Shipyards will re-route part of your Jump circuitry, linking it to your vehicle's velocity-controller.
When full speed is set, the J-drive will engage in a limited mode, similar in effect to an injector, but silent, fluid, faster, and without the attendant fuel-waste.
We call it the O-drive.
To disengage it, decelerate to below your vessel's normal top speed.
Features
Our service includes the option to disconnect or reconnect the O-drive circuits at any time. This switch will also act as a 'reset' in case of unexpected behaviour. Go to your F4 Interface under 'Your FE Shipyards' to access the Overdrive connection switch.
Remarks
The O-drive will disengage automatically under the following conditions:
- Upon starting Jump-drive
- Upon docking
- Upon entering witchspace.
Overdrive is smoothly adjustable from lowest to highest setting using your vehicle's velocity-controller. The O-drive's range begins at your vessel's top speed and can be increased to 10 times the craft's nominal maximum speed.
Examples
