Currently they can be shot off by a single ELC hit, which makes them much worse than the other rudder types - they are very much not worth using despite their stronger stabilizing force. +25 HP would probably be fine.

Counterargument: Reduce ELC damage by 21

499 isn't a nice number :(

It actually would make ELC drastically worse
because it would require 1 more shot to destroy almost every high HP part

I wouldn't have cared

Procelio HP values are usually in multiples of 500

but you're a prolific ELC user

Eh, it's mostly just that ELC having a much lower damage per hit and poor ability to land multiple shots on one component means it's a lot more sensitive to specific HP/damage thresholds than other weapons.
Both in a positive and negative way - if it does just enough damage to break a part in x shots it's a lot better against that thing, but if it is just barely unable to do so it's much worse. Particularly for small blocks.

I was kidding lol, I'm giving the flat rudder 550 hp unless someone stops me
