Originally intended as a ship for new players, a lot of happy customers, new and old alike, use the Bobby as their daily default ship.
Be it for mass scanning with 21 scanners, warping home a million hematite or just visiting the local market, the Bobby is a versatile work horse.
The Bobby has very strong wing lift and glides for endless miles; learn to reenter atmo without using the engines and coast the ship to your base.
Best flown manually.
Please tell us what you will use it for along with your talent levels, so we can pick the right engines for the job. Numbers for this page taken in VR (no talents), using maneuver engines and with warp drive equipped.

best beginner sharker where there is.
Very good flight characteristics, and with Archhud simply Brakelandig use as Ohshit button.I still use it for little Ore transports as well as various market runs, I have also long time used as a scanner ship,
class in consumption, easy to repair and cheap, what more could you ask for
DeadHorse
This is a great workhorse. It really is.
Falling
This great miner, you can attach 3 tile scanners to it.
Good Strategy:
1) Land Bobby where 3 hex intersect. Start all 3 scanners. Find Hema/Baux on one of the 3 squares...go mine that for 20-30 min (or however long u want)2) Come back to Bobby, check scans...if mega, claim territory or just mine away, easy 50-150 million quanta.
3) Repeat and get mad Quanta Boyyz
Made my first 100 million quanta w/ this beast! EZ Mode.
Next Level:
Buy M core ship, dock 3 bobbys to it, all w/ 3 scanners.
Land M core ship on hex.
Fly Bobby #1 to 3 intersection hex, start scans.
Use Pocket Rocket to fly back to M Core
Fly Bobby #2 to 3 intersection hex, start scans.
Use Pocket Rocket to fly back to M Core
Fly Bobby #3 to 3 intersection hex, start scans.Mega node master mode
-- tho this does require the ability to have quiet a few constructs, or corps.

I recently bought one of these ships for a friend who was newer to the game. I picked it up and flew it back to my base, and I started thinking to myself, I should pick up one of these for myself...so I did. The thing handles amazingly in atmos, it flys and lands like plane with some people prefer. It responds to my minor and major corrections, and even with a full load it still rides better then 90% of the other ships I've used when full. Gotts ships might not look the best, but they handle like a dream. I highly suggest you stop by his stream or shop. Amazing ship, SUPER CHEAP.
