So lets assume im a brand new player and i know nothing about setting up a POS except the fact that i need standing with the correct faction to setup a POS. I want to use this for invention, research, and manufacturing.
So i purchase a corp some someone that has the standing to place my POS in a 0.7.
What skills are needed to be able to do that? Also what cost am i looking at for a medium sized POS? i was looking at the POS guide stickied here and it doesnt talk to much about skills/cost just mostly how to fit. At this moment it would be a 1 man corp setting up the POS, so i know i need fuel and whatnot but not sure exactly how it would work to setup the control tower and attach whatever else is needed so that i can do the things above.
Thanks in advance for your comments/suggestions

Anchoring 1 will allow you to anchor almost all POS modules. Anchoring 2 will allow you to anchor sheild hardening arrays. Anchoring 3 will allow you to anchor electronic warfare batteries.
Anchoring 5 will allow you to train Starbase Defense Management so you can manually control any batteries you have placed.
The cost of the POS will depend on which tower it is (size, regular/faction), modules and defenses you decide to use, and the going price of player-sourced fuel. My best suggestion for figuring out modules and fuel costs/amount is to use My POS, and then to price those modules and tower on the market. ---

so after reading more about it. its pretty costly for a fairly new person to get into. i remember seeing a post 3-4 months ago about a alliance that was setup for just this. Like your corp joins their alliance just to be able to use manufactoring and research slots.
Does anyone know what im talking about able to point me to the thread? i cant seem to find it now.

1) If your a fairly young industrialist and are not working out in 0.0, I highly recommend that you stick to NPC station manufacture and research slots. Their usage costs are far less then those of renting. And to fully use them you need a good base understanding of what you are doing and how the cost analysis works out.
2) If/or when you are looking for research pos slots to use, I know of one good service in the essence region, talk to Caldari5 ingame for info.

Sounds like the New Eden Research Alliance, though their towers were recently the focus of attacks by Goons, so I don't know if they are still in business.
There are other research alliances though.

POS towers and structures are corporate assets. To be able to fully use them, you need to be a member of the owning corporation with the appropriate roles. Members of other corporations that belong to the same alliance can only do ME and PE research, and only if things are properly set up. They cannot do copying, invention, or manufacturing because they cannot access the labs and arrays.
The alliance you were thinking of is probably New Eden Research. They shut down a couple of months ago after Goonswarm declared war on them. ZZZ may still be in operation, I'm not certain. ______________________________________________________ Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you? |

yea new eden was the one i was thinking of.
On another note, i know that you have to attach a POS in high sec to a moon. So when im looking at the overview if the moon has something in its type like Station whatever or Amarr Mining Station then i cant use it right? cause an NPC station is there.
Is there an easy way to tell if the moon is usable for a pos? just zone in and if there is nothing under type then its available?

The way I did it was to set my overview to only see POS towers. Then I would warp to a planet and count the moons, then count the towers that showed up in my directional scanner (my normal ship scanner).
There are probably better ways to do it though.
