@Tylerdurdon @jordanlund thrusters enable strafing but more importantly they turn off "flight assist" and engage realistic Newtonian motion. So accelerate to top speed, hold Space and turn around to continue in the same direction and shoot "backwards".

@docclox @Veedem You can get unlucky and encounter FC ships in UC space and vice versa who will attack on sight.
I run a lot of contraband so I've set up a "smuggler's hideout" outpost in an independent system. I have a bounty board there where I "lay low" and "escape the heat" :)
