Price / Build materials are okay even though people complain I do not think they should be cheap. A drone that mines as much as a hulk should come at a premium.

Skill requirements and module requirements again nothing to complain here. Other than that I'd love for some of the ORE stuff such as the ORE implant set to apply to them. But the drone mining rigs give them enough bonus so there is no need for yield bonus mods and such.

Preformance as far as the Ore mining version goes they preform okay but only in hidden belts in normal astroid belts they are pretty much unusable because of how the belts are structured (the way astorids are clustered inside..) a slight bump in drone speed would go a long way though 200 m/s it just forces you to drop in and out of industry mode all the time~ Mining astroids 15km away from you should be viable without having to move.

Preformance for the ice mining version is seriously bad again due to how belts are structured... and given the really bad base speed on them 100 m/s is not enough I'd argue a bump to 150-200 m/s would be in order.

All I can say is I'd really like a bump up in drone speed or a way to incrase the optimal range of them because as of now for ore drones everything inside 10km is okay.. for ice everything inside 5km. That seems a bit tight. Given that this is while fitting 2 Faction Drone Nav computers. I'm not saying they should be as fast as 'Augmented' versions but a tad more speed would really go a long way especially on ice mining ones.

Oh and the inability to mine Mercoxit is kind of a big deal because it forces you to ship down if you want to cycle a hidden belt:(

As for links not applying to them I think thats fine they are strong enough in terms of yield as is with Rigs.
Tank on them is fine to as long as you're not in Blood Raider / Sansha space where these drones have their weakest resists.
Sensor strengh could do with a little bump though because Guristas rats will jam them all the time. Which means having a setup where you just ignore the NPC's doesn't work for people in Guristas space which seems a bit 'unfair'.
