Your First Craft Mods

Once you have passing familiarity of how the different parts affect the craft's handling, you can make changes to the layout of the parts to suit your needs. ''Pro Tip: All vectors produced by your craft act against your center of mass. The further they are from the center of mass, the more force they will exert on your craft.''
 * To increase stability and reduce body roll, move heavier parts toward the bottom of the craft and move your 'Lift' thrusters higher up.

Once you've seen how moving your existing parts can affect skimmer handling, try the following:
 * To increase maneuverability, position your strongest 'Lift' vectors as far from your center of mass as you can.
 * Add a second pair of Radiators. How does it affect your skimmer's cooling? How does it affect your skimmer's handling?
 * Remove your rear 'Lift' thrusters altogether. How does it affect your skimmer's cooling? How does it affect your skimmer's handling?
