Even if you can your better off just shooting them if your in a small ship, it either removes the problem permanently or causes the user to pull them back to save them.

I'm talking about using friendly drones for cap.

Interesting, although if you want them for cap you would want to use Nos, not Neuts.

You're not risking anything by trying it, let us know how it works.

Hey, this would be cool ... Anyway, not on TQ, but I was able to neut my drones dry once last year during a test on SiSi. Then you could only scoop them to get full operation again.

Drones have a single unit of cap. You cannot leech of that in anything.

I too had written the idea off until OP mentioned logi drones.

Doing some really dirty math as I'm on my phone without a pen or paper handy a meta 0 medium nos would dry a heavy hull rep drone in 4 mins. A lot of rounding was done so +/- 1 minute. This factors in recharge and does not factor capacitor levels. Seems viable in a pinch but I recommend testing before trying in combat Blink
