You need to have a POS and basically "own" the wormhole before you can really do PI well there. Yes, the entrance moves around. Our C1 has a static hisec exit, so we can always get to somewhere in hisec (not always near a hub though).

cool thanks for the relpy do not think i' ready to try to own a WH yet =) kinda busy with RL stuff and sounds like a lot of work.
you guys ever going to upgrade to a larger wh, or stay put with a c1?
Well, the community never really came kicking and screaming to get into wormholes once a few of us went in, so a c1 has actually worked out nicely for us. Grond and I are pretty much the only two playing in the wormhole atm. It would take a good reason and a good wormhole for us to move right now (having 0.0 level PI planets 1 jump away from hisec is just too awesome), but who knows what's up in the future.
Yup, the C1 is perfect for us at the moment. Plenty for my 6 hulks to mine, our Drakes can handle any other sites that spawn and the PI is awesome. The only minor problem is the limited ship size entering the WH, but that keeps our ivaders small and we can always build bigger ships. Carrier anyone? :)
Ill be happy with a drake fleet. I have seen some killmails with drakes in the fleets, its amazing what they're capable of in large groups. Can always keep the bigger stuff for lowsec later
So since the experiment was a success, what do you say to the next phase being a cost/benefit analysis of each level? I'm considering the idea of making more higher level stuff, and which planet types would be most beneficial in doing this, versus just sticking with p1 and running in and out more often. Im thinking this because it may be less time consuming with as many accounts as we all run, and I am gonna take a wild guess that most forum users are not boxers, so we might as well start gathering intel for ourselves now.
I'm already working to convert as much P1 as possible into P2's and P3's. I'm currently running 5.5 production planets (the .5 isn't running all the factories it can atm since it's my planet where I take whatever extra P1's I have and change the factories to produce the highest selling P2's and P3's I can make). My view so far is basically that you can't go wrong making and selling POS fuel, but most anything from PI seems to sell. I make so much robotics they should rename the stuff to morgbotics.
and grondbotics :)
