Hello,
I just have learned Remote Repair III, so that I can use Armor Maintenance drone, but I dont know how to activate it to repair my armor.
Probably this question has been in past, but I was unable to find it.
Thank you in advance. Dax

well the repair drones are sweet but unfortunately they cant be used to repair one self. Why u ask? well its quite obvious... u cant target yerself... and drones need a target to do what they are supposed to do. but to repair a mate's armour/shield they are quite handy -SanZo-

Armor/Shield maintenance drones are used to repair someone else's defenses, not your own.
If you're in a fleet, having pilots with extra drone room carrying repair drones is great - after a battle, park at a safe spot and fix up each other.
But your drones can't repair your ship (as said above, you can't target yourself).

Armor bots are also useful for RR gangs as un-jammable repair sources that don't take cap.
The fact they're oftentimes overlooked by the enemy helps things a lot. But yes, they're meant to be used on a gangmate, not yourself.

1. Remote Repair won't allow you to use drones. You need to train "Repair Drone Operation". 2. Remote Repair allows you to use remote armor and hull repair modules. 3. With remote repair modules and repair drones, you need to target someone to repair them, as you can't target yourself, you can't use these to repair yourself. But your fleet mates will certainly appreciate it (provided you don't accidentally repair the enemy).
PS - get some of your mates to train these skills - it's like learning first aid, you hope someone other than yourself knows it.

You also want to avoid accidentally repairing NPC rats in high-sec. CONCORD will take offense and relieve you of your ship.
Why? People were exploiting this by repairing scrambler rats that had another player engaged -- forcing the rats to win, and allowing the repairing player the spoils of the battle with no risk at all to himself. Now aiding the NPC rats in high-sec will get you a global criminal flag.

Just to clarify, you need skills in both Repair Drone Operation and the basic Remote Armor/Shield Repair skills. (I don't know if those names are exactly right, I'm at work.) I had the repair drone skill and, because I knew I could use armor repair bots, I thought I could use the shield ones, too, but when my buddy needed shields I found out the hard way that you need to have the base Remote Shield Transfer skill in addition to the drone skill.
