Elite: Dangerous. Landing Imperial Cutter on Achenar 3. Exploring Horizons. Part 10

6:06 "SURPRISE!"

Wouldn't 6Gs kill you?

OK so I did some research, apparently an untrained human can tolerate 6G for 10 minutes.

It just sounds painful.

Actually vertical thrusters work on this planet...You were just to close to your ship,thats why they didnt work.

"verticle thrusters doesnt work" you moron, you were too close to your ship -.

did it in my python. had no problems landing, ship hovered fine. it is like flying a brick though...just touching the sticks down causes the ship to plummet. auto pilot took its time landing but no problems.

i really wish i had imperial cutter cuz it looks so good, damn problem is its difficult to get and it costs alot and pilot seat is on right side in cockpit

Such a beautyful ship and so superb cockpits for the perfect Star Trek Flair - too bad that this is some online game and not a normal fine videogame :(

You make the same mistake Obsidian Ant made. Gliding down vertically as if there was an atmosphere.

i did this in my fer de lance, went way too fast and i crashed and burned, was fun tho

I've been playing ED for a while now... HOW DO YOU DO THE EXTERNAL CAMERA??

Imagine the feeling on this planet :P

What happens if you go to that planet and turn off your thrusters/flight assist?

what kind of minerals and metals can you find on that planet?

Haha XD the autopilot lands the Cutter on its belly and then deploys the landing gear - oh well, still better than landing on top of the player. My ship always lands in some canyon, a kilometer away, even if i recall it on an open plane. Slightly annoying - but now that I have a comparison, having the ship land a kilometer away is better than being pancaked by my own ship.

It's freakin' creepy when you boost with your nose up 45°, boost again but you're still losing altitude.

I managed to find a planet in a random system that was 6.75 g and I landed in my cobra mkIII. It is still difficult

this game needs base building. would be so cool to setup a little outpost to store your ships and walk around in.

FA on :P

Love the hot landing though, I'll have to keep that in mind when I give it a go.

Your guy would have to have an amazing g suit on lol hickkkkk

what nationality are you?
