Where to find Flux capacitors consistently?
I have almost all of the components for SETA, but I need Flux Capacitors.
I killed tons and TONS of Xenon fighters and capital ships but still no luck.
Is there any ship type/race that drops them more consistently?

Ventures was always a good source for me,

I rarely used SETA though... highly over rated mechanic

Hmm does it works with mods installed? Like I have some mods installed, like faction enhanced mods and VRO (those are the only ones that I installed)

Ventures is currently disabled while they work on it. Previously, if you had mods, or had the modified tag (save edit for example), ventures refused to work. I assume this will be the same after the update.

The Segaris plot usually gives you one of those half way as a reward. They also sometimes drop from Xenon capital ships and Kha'ak medium ships.

Hmm I see, It would be a bummer if I had to disable my mods just to be able to use Venture, but I guess that will be happen.
I guess I will start a vanilla save to try out venture once it re-releases and having a vanilla save also would be nice.

Isn't The Segaris plot the Project Genesis? If it's not I need to find the trigger for that plot.

Anyways, thanks guys, guess I need to try those suggestions until I get the material required for SETA

Just do miner escort missions and get attacked by Khaak. By the time you've done your second or third you'll have all the SETA parts and you'll be at least 500k richer.

If you can afford it just park a destroyer with a small fighter wing about 10km in front of a jumpgate to xenon space, then tell your fighters to collect loot.

Then you just go do whatever and go collect your loot every now and then (you can order them to drop it off at HQ or talk to them to get it, there's a tab for ships with inventory items under properties).
You'll also level some pilots as a side benefit.

I've had good results using an Odysseus with 12 Perseus with shard batteries, organizing my fighters into wings of three (two fighters assigned to "attack for commander" on a third one, that one gets "intercept for commander" on the destroyer) so they gang up on enemies instead of each fighting their own battle.
Attrition is surprisingly low, i've only lost a single Perseus in over 10 hours of OOS-gatecamping the gate to Frontiers Edge.

Correct, that's the one.

That's strange, I already finished the plot in my Cadet playthrough and don't have the flux capacitor
