I haven't really messed around much with speed tankers, but I was looking to build some speed tanked heavy tacklers (cruiser sized) for 0.0.
In addition to tackling I wanted to contribute as much dps to a fight as I can. Yet the only way I seem to be able to do this is with launchers. Every other weapon seems to lack the necessary tracking to hit people at decent speeds.
Yet the vagabond is a turret ship, what gives here? What are pilots doing to allow themselves to do damage but not receive it?
I'd really like a response from some of you guys who know speed setups a bit better than me, explaining some common situations and addressing the above problem.
Thanks a ton !

Mwd towards target, shut mwd off, orbit @ 18 k or if you have faction dis @ 25 km range. Use shieldextenders and 1 kin rig, its enough tank.

So you're just using the MWD to get in position? Their tracking isn't good enough to hit you at your base speeds?

your guns wont hit if u mwd around, large guns wont hit u if dont use mwd but anything else will hit, but thats why u got 2x large shield extanders on a vaga

On sisi while I was testing a speed fit zealot capable of going 4km/s I found that the turrets really didn't have any trouble hitting people while at speeds, especially if the target is MWDing as well, but you always want to slow down since the quality of hits won't be too good. The pulse tracking buff really helps, and since autos have better tracking you won't have any trouble. Only reason I like the zealobond better than a vaga is because the vaga is in falloff while the zealot has 30km optimal on pulses with scorch, meaning higher dps in most cases.

for speed tanking and very good dps u should try ishtar. It is capable of reaching 6 k/s, could run mwd almost indefinetly (if not being heavy nossed) and u dont need tracking. T2 heavy drones would do around 450 dps wich is a quite a good damage.
