[QUOTE]Originally posted by Psi'a Meese: [QB] When I reviewed the NGTM, it states that 'driver coils' as a component of the impulse engine were only necessary for Ambassador-class starships and the even larger Galaxy-class due to mass. So I question that the Intrepid-class would even require them. "...normal impulse velocities are limited to .25c." "The IPS is cross-linked with its counterpart in the WPS for flight transitions involving warp entry and exit. Specific software routines react to prevent field energy fratricide (unwanted conflicts between warp fields and inpulse engine fields)." As in above posts, starships have leaped to warp from dead stops and also stopped 'on a dime' in some examples. But not always. I suggest that it appears with or without the impulse driver coils, a starship is dependant upon both drive systems working together when entering or exiting "subspace" i.e. warp. Purrrr....
