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
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.
