Hey it's Ricardo and I'm still playing elite dangerous and I'm bored now the
old ASP Explorer it's been my workhorse I'd charge around the galaxy with it and
ice looking a bit bland it's looking a bit boring so I thought I take a look at
the ASP Explorer ship kits available in the library section and the frontier
store
now currently not cheap the asper ship kit is currently
retailing at seven British pounds so quite a bit of money for something
that's not going to give you any in-game advantage not that I agree with in-game
advantages now you can get quite a few embellishments for ships these days
available in the store just for the aesthetic the apt Explorer ship kit
comes with four spoilers I think they call it a spoiler for a reason there's
some great big honking ones that look a bit akin to what used to be on the old
sierra cosworth and the escort cosworth and perhaps on the back of some Renault
5 campus's not really a fan of the spoiler myself but there are some quite
nice ones here that one's a bit ostentatious I think you know with a big
so like scoopy thing in the middle of it all so you get four wings to go on the
side now the asp explorer is quite white as it is and of course it also makes it
very easier with the new purchasing embellishments that have been put into
the store that you can see what the new store items look like before you buy
them as you saw then there were some of the spiky things from the Raider kit you
don't get any tail attachments but you can also view as I just mentioned the
radar kit so on the bumpers you get for that one very subtle this one again the
wings are soft flare out from the side kiss it's so wide you know it's gonna be
difficult to judge until you can see it so like in a war well-lit area let's
take a look I think some of the wider ones are better more more visual for
your money if you know what I mean I think seven pounds for this ship is
expensive I think they've got it priced at around three pounds too much four
pound I think would be a good a good price point for this I mean okay yeah I
bought it so their marketing must be working but but generally I don't know
what came over me it's boredom boredom it's what it is
boredom causes me to spend money must keep interested so there's that great
big honking spoiler it yeah it just as a goal does it it looks like a massive
handle on the back of that aspects pleura we've got the extra flared wings
on the side yeah I don't think it quite works I don't think it quite works so
probably back to the drawing board and select some different embellishments for
it now on the front I went for that very subtle sort of bulges around but the
cockpit doesn't really do much for me okay so back to the drawing board let's
go and change this out and the good thing about the live resection or livery
section is that you can mix and match you can try and well they're not that
many different combinations if you get four of everything but you know what I
mean you can mix and match you can make a little bit of your personality come
through you have the choice which front which
spoiler which wings you're gonna put on this ship and in turn you make your ship
a little bit more individual couple that with a different color
and then no one else is gonna care a parrot from you because they're just
gonna shoot you they're not going to take time to look at this ship kit well
there's a nice ship kit I won't shoot him they're just gonna shoot you thank
you very much but it all depends how about crime and punishment thing
frontier introduced recently carries on
so if some changes made let's take another look using that old external
camera to see what sort of mess we've made of this I suppose dinner plate sort
of design anyway so there's that horrible spoiler again
I don't like it and these wings are kind of their source wetback wailing a lot
camera down now so we can have a look at them all yeah there's of a sweat back
sort of wing bolted on the side it's not bad but then at the front it's sort of
flares out again and it looks a bit like a snowplow
of course winter is coming yeah and it's kind of look like a snow cloud isn't it
or some sort of like plow that you get on the front of the old steam
locomotives forget what that's called anyway yeah that's quite not working
let's take a look in a bit of better light so there's that horrible spoiler
there's some different wings on the front there not bad quite nice quite
subtle now on the back those wings they're sweeping back towards the rear
section I think we need to change that explosion
that spoiler is system spoiling it all for me
so you haven't read them so click the like and subscribe but if you like what
you seen and that will let you know when I'm putting more videos like this on
YouTube here's a different spoiler again bit
handle esque a bit wide that one isn't there you know
I mean yeah it's like a dining room table again the wings on the side two
embellishments they're really and then the front bumpers that's not a
bad aesthetic really I think it all sort of like merges into one with that cutout
on the back wing I quite like that I'm not sure
I'm not sure and I do that spoiler everything else seems to be alright just
not happy with that spoiler
let's take a look another combination so frontal sweep in back wings this time
now that's a bad errors now it gives the impression it's looking like a baby type
9 we've changed the spoiler on the back a more subtle spoiler and the bumpers
sweep in front to back and the wings we've been friend to back does give it
that aspect of symmetry I suppose really you know it of air flowing round the
ship that ship cutting through space I
don't know cuz I'm just running my mouth who knows
I quite like that that's quite a good look for this aspects flora I'm not
saying it's the right color that's a completely different subject for a
completely different video yeah I like that
I like the angles that sort of atones itself to what the angle at concept of
what I think that aspects poor is to begin with
so yeah that's smaller spoiler at the bottom there option number four what do
you gain in by that an extra couple of fins rubbish too subtle for me you need
something that's gonna make a bit of a statement
oh you're seven pounds or ten dollars or whatever it's costing you in a hole for
nothing some could say that well it brings no
value to the game why are you even bothering what a waste of money hmm
and you could be right there you could be right
if it gave you a little bit of maneuverability bonus not much just a
little bit I think it'd be many well-spent
otherwise it's just the commander indulging himself on that
personal expression on his ship
so I think you've got a winner here I think we've got a winner I quite like
that
those angles I've gone for the swept-back wings the back the wider
spoiler I think we're there I think that it's not too different from the original
design but I think I think we're there I think that's perhaps one of the best
combinations I've done with this ship kit I think in hindsight bit of a waste
of money to be honest but hey it killed half an hour
take a look at a different angle yes there's of droopy swept-back wings I
think that's done it that's done it for me that really has done it for me I
think that is the ship I am going to be flying around and exploring all these
different thyroid and guardian bases chasing after basilisk fargood
interceptors of whatever they are that have just turned up in the latest
release that's what I'm gonna do
we're gonna stick with that one so there you go that was the ASP Explorer ship
embellishment kit of which you get bumpers wings and a spoiler but nothing
on the tail if you haven't already done so please can you click the like and
