ok.. ill try and explain abit while i laugh my ass off :P sry.. but this is the best thing iv read all day.
so you are a carebear who wanted a carrier.... what you going to use it for?? missioning :P ?
ok... back on topic.. enough flames.
to jump a carrier you need 2 characters. they need to be in a gang.
first character is in the carrier, second one in any ship that can fit a cynosural(whatever its called) field generator.
the char whit the cyno generator goes to the system you want to go whit the carrier and makes a cyno field whit the generator... this character cant move now for 10 minutes (or 5 if hes in a recon ship)
then the carrier character right clicks the other character and chooses jump to... voila... you arrive at the cyno field.
but before you do any jumping... check this site out... you can see if you can make the distance whit your skills in one go or you need to make stops Jump planner site
to generate the cyno field... the character whit the generator needs Liquid Ozone
you need fuel aswel in your cargo hold (cant remember what type the thanatos needed... i havent used that ship for god knows how long)
if you are a mission running carebear(sorry... but you seem like that).. sell the ship and buy something else. a carrier is a PvP ship that support your fleet. it has awesome remote logistics that are vital to the gang and ok damage from fighters.
now some advice:
if you want to get to places whit your carrier you NEED to train... yes NEED, these skills
Jump drive Operation 5
Jump Fuel Conservation 4
Jump Drive Calibration 4 (thats minimum .. get it 5)

So there's no way to jump with this ship without help?
Carrier is not a SOLO ship... carrier is not a DUO ship... carrier is a fleet ship. because a solo carrer will be owned by a small gang really fast.

OK guys I'm looking for help... not for players that would like to blast my ship to hell. I not do PVP and I've learned about each ship I've used on my own so get of my back. There's a learning curve with every ship and even more of one when you do it your self...
if you DONT pvp... you DONT need a carrier... sell it.
Carrier is a pure PVP ship... or a crappy 0.0 hauler :P but nothing else.
sell it or fail :P
tbh sell it and train for a Kronos or something and buy that and mission some more :P

I have a small corp... we mine, run missions and the like. We need to move to low sec. for better belts and to do some ice mining, the ship is ment to be cover for the miners while their working.
a carrier in low sec belt lasts mybe 5 minz before its spotted and then owned :P
you will lose that 10000x faster than your megas

I didn't say I was ready for a Carrier... I was pushed into it by the members of the corp... I do a good job at what I know and from time to time I get my a** handed to me in battle. That's why I stay in high sec. But I let my comrades push me into a ship I'm not ready for so I'll make the best of it and learn how to best use her from this point on... that's all I can really do she's too big of an investment to just give up on. That's why I came to the forum so I can learn what to do with the ship.
id say its time for you to look for new friends also... its rather stupid forcing someone to train for a ship that they themselves have no clue about.
imo.. tbh if its from corp fund... take the carrier and say its a compensation for the time you wasted training for something you really didnt need.
