'''Limpet Controllers''' are a series of ship [[modules]] used to program and control simple limpet [[drones]]. The drones can be launched from the ship to perform various tasks depending on the type of Limpet Controller. Most Limpet Controller modules are specialised and only capable of managing one type of task, and if a pilot wishes to use multiple functions, they must either install multiple Limpet Controller modules with the appropriate functions or a Multi | '''Limpet Controllers''' are a series of ship [[modules]] used to program and control simple limpet [[drones]].

The limpets managed by Limpet Controllers are cheap, disposable munitions stored in a ship's [[Cargo Rack]]s. They can be replenished at ports or via [[Synthesis#Limpets|Synthesis]]. Limpets remain blank templates until they are deployed, at which time they are programmed by whichever Limpet Controller is activated by the pilot before being launched from the ship to carry out their assigned task. | The limpets managed by Limpet Controllers are cheap, disposable munitions stored in a ship's [[Cargo Rack]]s.
