Just got one myself and it and it's main problem is armour, once the shields go down you're screwed. However it compensates for this with amazing shields for it's size and with 4 utility mounts they can be boosted alot. Hardpoint wise it is very good as its only blind spot is upper-behind and can deal a great deal of damage with gimbaled or fixed mounts, however it does need some smart flying to be effective against larger ships as it can loose shields fast against larger mounts. It is however very maneuverable so it can out turn most with ease and blast away from behind.

Precision points don't really matter on a ship with this little armour so just keep your shields up at all costs. Overall, this is a good ship for small dogfights as it can out turn most ships of similar power, but does better if you are not directly looking for combat. It can, however, defend itself remarkably well and wether you use this in larger combat zones is up to you.
