hey its Ricardo welcome back to elite dangerous beyond yes the crate mark to
phantom edition we're gonna quote the Phantom edition has been released in the
beta and ready to play and for commanders to flight so get yourself
over to your friend least Airport and it says with a spacious cargo hold and a
relatively generous quantity of hardpoints the crate phantom is a
versatile ship suited to a range of roles it has enough firepower to hold
this only Kings larger targets blah blah blah blah blah offers eight internal
components lots of firepower and like exist a ship it's fast and light
brilliant what's it gonna be doing I reckon it's a cool exploration ship ok
more streamlined than the crate mark - and it keeps those hard points with two
large higher points it can really throw the fire down I think personally between
the two ships the Mamba and the crate phantom the crate phantom is the ship
most people are gonna go for because if it's increased range it can be a bit
like you know the ASP Scout though who knows what's it costs what I'll tell you
what it costs it costs at founder's 32 million so expect that to be a little
bit more wherever else you go and find it top speed is knocking in at 256
meters per second with a boost speed of 358 an fsd range with a stock FSD range
totally in lady 9.7 6 with leighton eight point two three but you can be
able to engineer the hell are over right let's go into some more stats
what about armor armor is at 324 shields at 260 and the hull mass 270 turns so
it's gonna be able to jump quite firm what about shields well Class six
shields so it can take a bit of a hammering class five fuel tank not bad
not bad at all better than what the member had has to say class seven on the
powerplant straight off the bat you got 20
megajoules class six thrust class five FS D we reckon it should be able to be
engineered up to about 60 plus light years and for a ship of that size it's a
good alternative to the ask explore aspects pleura and a good alternative to
the ASP Scout so let's get this board shall we so there was 30 odd million but
it's the beta we don't care let's see what it's all about so straight off the
bat let's have a quick look at outfitting I can see some changes
already in the cockpit area you see the cockpit hasn't got the two bubbles
either side to host the two multi-crew points but it does have an extra multi
crew seat we've got to empty large head point and it comes with the standard
small pulse lasers in the medium Bay's now I just gotta play around here now I
like a multi cannons either side of the cockpit un'ytu I like to turn my head
slightly and see those multi cannons whirring away and dealing out there
creped phantom marine like death against my enemies I like them either side a lot
of people have said that one thing they're not too sure about the man but
the man but you can't see the weapons out the cockpit people want to see them
people want to see the machinery working they want to see they want to see death
being dealt either side of the cockpit when they turn their heads and as a
result the crate phantom delivers much like the crate marked - delivered really
cool aspect I'm gonna lay some beam lasers in there as well on the other
slots and the large hats large hard points for anything else because I like
beam lasers you know when you've totally got a kill everything in front of you
beam lasers of course if you're gonna use this as an exploration vessel then
you would cut this down quite considerably to just have enough to keep
people away while you run for the hills if using it for
exploration you're gonna want lighter weapons much
lighter weapons so you can see from the stats below
you know we've got pretty good power 20 megawatts with the standard power bay
and that's not bad let's look in let's get some of this engineered up so we've
got a 70 power plant like we stated and for that we get in 20 megawatts let's
scroll away down to the a rated one unless a rate this up let's buy it up
come on here we go straight off that's up to 30 in change so you're gonna be
able to run whatever you want with 30 megawatts I would have imagined you know
so it's turning out to be quite versatile I'd take all the things back I
said in my other video that was the crape phantom what's the point well I
can see the point now it's turning out to be a cool ship so we're gonna go for
a D on life support because hey you know it's life support unless I'm going right
out into the black I'm not going to need anything sort of like that and if my
canopy does go out in the black well will you're stuffed
so yeah power distributor as well I'm gonna go for a 7:00 a.m. that just so we
can lay down all that power and there we go so we've got a five a frameshift
Drive trim shift drive is already up without any engineering or any FSD
boosters to twenty two point eight five and with all the stuff that I've got in
there so I am gonna put a frameshift drive booster a 5h frame shift drive
booster in that class five slot right because I want it to be able to jump now
you can always change that thinking use this for trading as well like but I
don't really know why you would you need to have some cargo capacity and you've
got the class three slots there for that anyway an another class five slot
surface scanners if you're going exploring I think a detailed surface
scanner is for you and that got will go nicely in that
class to slot right at the bottom freeing up that class three slot for
either more cargo and SRV whatever you want to go
and do with it so so far with the fsd we're up to 33 and change lightyears
that FSD booster has given us a hell of a lot of additions now if we were gonna
go through and D rate all of this then of course we be on to a bigger winner
and I reckon without any any engineering D rate everything you're gonna be
knocking on with an MSD booster around 40 light years which is not too shabby
get yourself over to Felicity and you can see that knocking up to at least 60
I would have imagined so what's it look like on the outside well look at that
it's got a lovely color scheme like the ASP Scout is taken the traditional
engines of its sister ship and replace it with a solid one bar a lot of people
say it looks like an LED well yes but I think those are cooler engines I'm all
for cooler engines the nice red and gray aspect of this ship is lending itself to
that sort of stealthy vibe that could be you know indicative of that the name
phantom let's look at that cockpit right in the middle slightly different shape
because there's no ball bris on either side and you know that the guns come
down but it's red inside as well look at that how cool is that as we go through
some of the other aspects and views you can see they've actually decorated the
inside of the cockpit not at all like the old crate phantom it doesn't do that
they haven't like I said decorated the inside - the old crate phantom it's nice
it's red it liked has come straight out of habitat whereas the old crate mark -
there is extension leads hanging about everywhere you know it's smaller it's
compact you've got the second seat just behind and to the right of the pilot
looking around the back you've got this lovely red paneling whereas before it
was you know quite I think unfinished and bare metal but one thing I've
noticed as well is by scanning around there seems to be what looks like a
Rubik's Cube in that little shelf you can't really see too much of it strange
isn't it what is that she little things in the
shelves in the racks they've all matte crepe mark too as well like you know so
but God knows what that is I'm gonna say it's a Rubik's Cube anyway
you've got like coffee holders could be coffee owners could be something else
I'm gonna go with coffee orders and you got other lockers around inside the
cockpit area come for a bit of a wider angle on that as well lots of panels
lots of detailing like what we saw with Amber a very finished ship a very
artistically designed model so the cockpit is a nice cockpit is a nice
place to be I think it's gonna be a very good alternative for all the people out
there who run aspects Flores especially me I think I'm gonna buy one and I think
I'm gonna engineer the hell out of it and use that because it looks cooler
than the ASP I have to say the ASP is a bit like an old dinner plate very easy
to to hit you know this I think it's got the aggressive looks of the crate
phantom of the crate mark - and now with the Phantom you've got a nice interior
plus you've got multi crew if you want it so looking around the cockpit all the
wires and extension leads as a few wires hanging about you know have all been
tucked away nicely behind paneling now it's not all about paneling though is it
that second seat for your multi crew people is in a pretty good position
they've got good visibility as well and you've got there what people said ice
the computer for the Millennium Falcon right at the back well whatever
it could be a big coffee machine who knows so from the outside you've got
those quintessential crate phantom looks right that they've got right from its
big sister again we've mentioned that you know the the cockpits been cut down
but other than that you look at that you think it's a crate it's a crate right
then you say oh yeah it's a crate phantom because of the cockpit and the
engines at the back so some are saying oh you know F dev it's lazy it's lazy no
it's not lazy at all I mean you know it's
it's a ship for a purpose they say it is multi-role okay it's a multi-role ship
that's exactly what it is and here we are seeing it in its native environment
and I'm gonna get all richard attenborough around you or david
attenborough around you but look there it is it looks nice it looks nice in
space with all the ship kits and other things you can be able to get to it
hey you know it's gonna look great now you can see the lasers I got the pulse
lasers in this configuration either side you'd be able to see those flash and lay
down their fiery death against all your adversaries in all I'm very impressed
with this model its maneuverable its quick good boost speed decent fsd range
you know you can build a jump everywhere with it then you can see in this model
in this shot I've got the beam lasers at the top and the guns either side
rolling all you know it is it is a ship to behold I'm I'm quite looking forward
to having this as opposed to the original crate mark - I love the crate
mark - I love that retro vibe this however I really am enjoying really
really I'm enjoying it looks nice and like I say it's got all the stats to
go with it maneuverability very good speed
very good pad points I think adequate to large to medium why would you need
anything else it's in Explorer but you know what can I say there you go those
are my views on the crate phantom thanks very much for watching I've been Ricardo
take this as you will it's still in beta but let's face it make it in that close
to the end of the game now it's gonna be in production before you know it at
least the landing gear works on this one as well but it didn't work on the member
it can go up and down no drams at all let me know what you
think very done so like and subscribe put your comments in the comment section
keep it clean because we're all good friends and I'll see you soon and look
out for more videos in the series
you
