Questions about Nova form Fly

Couple quick questions:

1. Recently (I18 I think?) Power Pool Fly was upgraded so that it has maximum speed without enhancement, as I understand it. Did this upgrade get applied to Nova form Fly? (Or the inherent PB power?)

2. Is there any way to reduce the "drift" in Nova form? Sometimes it's difficult to navigate in caves and click glowies. Not a major issue, obviously, but I was wondering if anyone had any tricks.

Thanks in advance.

Ideally, the tank will die precisely as everyone else starts fighting, allowing aggro to be spread evenly among the blaster. -seebs, "How to Suck at CoH/CoV" Guide

No. Learn to love the drift; it adds all sorts of good tactics to nova form.

Thanks for the info. So if flight speed is max for level, that leaves other options for the Nova form slot. The Performance Shifter +End% seems popular, or maybe the +Perception IO.

And while I'm not sure I'll "learn to love" drifting, maybe we can be friends.

Thanks again.
