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

Taking FE Ships as a baseline, some ascending ranges:

Gecko FE: O-drive velocity range: 212-2120.

Adder FE: O-drive velocity range: 240-2400.

Krait FE: O-drive velocity range: 267-2670.

Cobra III FE: O-drive velocity range: 267-2670.

Mamba FE: O-drive velocity range: 272-2720.

Asp II FE: O-drive velocity range: 294-2940.

Sidewinder FE: O-drive velocity range: 308-3080.

Viper II FE: O-drive velocity range: 334-3340.
