Ok so I fly blackbirds. I feel I am fairly competent in flying them, and my prefered fit is 2x sig amps in the low not the plated fit.

I feel like if you fly with a plate (because you need it) you're doing it wrong.

Id like to step up to the falcon and want to find out if flying the falcon is the same as the blackbird as far as how to fly it.

I would imagine its buffed due to the element of cloaking.

I wanted to paint my space ship red, but I couldn't find enough goats.

You get the cheese mode cloak on the falcon, so you can run a full rack of jammers and a MWD. After that, you're left with a crap ton of PG leftover, which is why most people run a 1600 plate in the low.

I personally run one projector and one augmentor rig (hope I have those names right), which gets the optimal + fall-off out to around 110km.

If you're all about good positioning and never get tackled, and like the Blackbird, then the Rook is the way to go. You can fit some buffer and lob in some DPS to the fight as well.
