Finding lap time in the Pulse LX

The Pulse LX rewards a pilot who can make the race-focused thrust package repeatable from one corner to the next instead of spending the whole lap on a single burst of speed. The Pulse LX trades everyday utility for higher racing speed and sharper response. The compact Pulse fits inside a wide range of ships, giving many carriers room for a dedicated racing or surface-support vehicle.

Development note: The Pulse LX is flight ready and entered the live game in Alpha 3.23.0. Because Star Citizen remains in active development, specifications, features, and imagery may change over time.

Propulsion, control, and cooling on the Pulse LX

The Pulse LX uses the race-focused thrust package to carry speed into the next turn, while strong braking and precise control keep the pilot on line.

The Pulse LX's performance

The Pulse LX trades everyday utility for higher racing speed and sharper response.

Compact

The compact Pulse fits inside a wide range of ships, giving many carriers room for a dedicated racing or surface-support vehicle.

Pulse LX's launch response

Smooth acceleration protects the racing line into the opening corner.

Pulse LX's mid-corner control

At racing speed, small steering mistakes become expensive.

The Pulse tuned for a faster, cleaner line

The Pulse LX sharpens the compact Pulse for riders who care more about acceleration and course response than everyday utility. Its tiny footprint still makes it easy to carry, but the reason to choose it is the way it links one turn to the next.

Launch Launching the Pulse LX

Use the race-focused thrust package to build speed without compromising the Pulse LX's position for the first turn.

Carry pace Keep momentum through the technical sections

Use smooth control inputs to carry the speed from the race-focused thrust package through linked corners and gates.

Review Review the race-focused thrust package after each run

Check heat, damage, and control response after the run before asking more from the race-focused thrust package.

Prepare for the full course

The Pulse LX turns the race-focused thrust package into a complete lap through careful setup, clean control inputs, and the discipline to preserve speed through the final sector.

Pulse LX - with components opened in Star Citizen
  1. Tune race-focused thrust package around the difficult sectors

    The pilot tunes the Pulse LX for repeated acceleration and control across the full lap.

  2. Build speed cleanly from the start

    Early speed helps only when the Pulse LX reaches the first braking point settled and on line.

  3. Use the race-focused thrust package to skim through the course

    The Pulse LX's pilot gets the most from the race-focused thrust package where braking, rotation, and acceleration have to connect without wasted movement.

  4. Separate setup problems from driving or flying mistakes

    The pilot reviews the Pulse LX's braking points, line, heat, and control inputs to find where the run actually lost time.

Pulse LX's performance hardware in detail

The Pulse LX combines its race-focused thrust package with low mass, predictable controls, and stable braking so the pilot can carry speed through the whole course.

01 The Pulse LX's handling

The vehicle has state-of-the-art thrusters to provide extreme agility.

02 Store equipment aboard the Pulse LX

In spite of its small size, the Pulse has an internal storage capacity of 0.6 SCU at the rear.

03 Pulse LX gravlev thrust

Race-tuned propulsion helps the Pulse LX recover momentum without turning every exit into a correction.

04 Hover and lean response on the Pulse LX

Control response turns the Pulse LX's acceleration into speed the pilot can keep through the course.

The Pulse LX turns preparation into repeatable speed

Setup and driver input matter from the launch through the final corner.

Carry the Pulse LX's speed through the technical sectors

The pilot sets up the Pulse LX's race-focused thrust package for the course, then links braking, steering, and acceleration into a faster lap.

Setup Set the Pulse LX up around the hardest sector

A fast Pulse LX starts with settings the pilot can trust through every part of the course.

Line Protect exit speed through each control input

Aboard the Pulse LX, course setup and smooth control inputs help the pilot carry the benefits of the race-focused thrust package from the first sector to the finish.

Review Turn the completed run into a better setup

For the Pulse LX, after the run, the pilot reviews braking points, line choice, and how the race-focused thrust package behaved before adjusting the setup.
