Planned skills
Advanced Weapons upgrades 5
Caldari Frig 4
Caldari Cruiser 5

Drone durability 3
Drone interfacing 3
Drone navigation 4
scout drone ops 5
tactical shield Manipulation 4
warp drive operation 5

So my question is what other skills should I top off or add to the training list for a Logi

"Logi" is kind of a broad area, actually. To some people it means "healer" and to others it means "jammer," depending on who you ask. So depending on which route you go, either remote repair or ecm perks? If you want to be a drone logistic support, then get the drone variants. Look at what buffs your shield/armor repair, your energy transfer, you sensor damping, ecm, or even weapon disruption (varies by faction ship, of course - Caldari have all the ECM ships and Amarr have some disruption ships).

Or do both at once? Get an Arbitrator, load it with tracking disruption & repair drones for example. Many will tell you that there is only One True Way to do anything (invariably theirs, of course) but then that traps one into a linear, predictable pattern - and that which is predictable is more easily countered. So by all means experiment - you may come up with something new & surprisingly effective.

What? No. No one equates "logi" with ECM. Stop making up silliness.

OP:

Logistics IV (but train it to V eventually, it's awesome)
Shield Emission Systems IV
Electronic Warfare Drone Interfacing (EC-300's are always handy, even flying logi)
Repair Drone Operation
All armor comps IV
Nominal levels of each small gunnery platform for maximum killmail whorage

From the looks of your character now, you're going for a fly all the Logi-thing, which is neat. Eventually, you'll definitely want Logi V, and the RR/emission skills trained to V. The differences in workable fittings you can run is pretty huge, once you've got more cap to play with. You'll need those skills to fly the really big Logi (carriers), too.

You don't need advanced weapon upgrades for logi ........

You want the rep/transfer skills to 5 and better nav skills. And obviously thermodynamics.

also ew drone interfacing is great as it boosts control range for all drones, not just ewar drones.

AWU 5 is useless when flying a logi, it is still a great skill to have for any ships using weapons though.
