Thank you for the feedback! I'd love to share the recipe, but my colleague reverse engineered the blueprints from the Lego guy's published pictures and doesn't want to endanger his business model, although I think the very same guy promised to publish his blueprints if Lego wouldn't agree to sell the FTL ships.
Sorry again for watering your mouth without being able to provide the recipe, but I want to show a lovely detail of the Kestrel: you can swap the weapons held in your cargo bay!
I figure it's a Heavy Laser I and an Ion Blast in addition to the Burst Lasers.
