wheres Rockin Robbins to explain the two soopermods?

*RR thats your call*

but it also depends on how you are targeting your ships... because if you are using casual "auto" targeting, all you have to do is lock and shoot.

if you like...you can manual target, this offers a better feeling of satisfaction IMO (in my opinion,)
its really simple, and really over exaggerated.

1. Identify the ship, just lock, and flip thru the manual until you see the ship in the manual, click on the checkmark.
2. when you click on the check, the stadimeter (range-finder) will show up. in stock, line up the bottom of the ship to the very tip-top of the masts. try to be as exact as possble, one pixel could make a miss...press the send to TDC button
3.My guess is that you are on a good track, in place in the targets path, but not where it will hit you. wait until the target reaches 15-20 degrees from your intial rangefinding observation, (like if it was at 45 degrees, wait until 25 degrees, or something like that.) press the send button
4. take another rangefinding observation, then move to your speed dial on the top. hot the clock button and it will give you a speed and bearing estimate, now, if you use it, thats up to you, preess the send to TDC button again.
5. i "eyeball" my AOB reading, but i am 90% accurate. just turn the AOB dial until you are comfortable with how it looks, PS, youll never be truly comfortable with your readings, use what looks best!

hope i have helped!
