So....
I made a post awhile back about how ridiculous my families SR team is. It's pretty fun, but very over the top ridiculous. A co-worker of mine is going to be joining the table. In the spirit of maintaining the ridiculousness, he wants to create a Pixie Sniper.

Not a sniper that shoots pixies, though that would also be entertaining.

I said "YES!" to the concept because it made me laugh. And the group is already so ridiculous, why not?

I made him take Meta-human customization & Weight Reduction mods on his sniper rifle. He also removed the trigger. Presumably the pixie just has to hold the thing and point it accurately to fire it.

His str and bod are 2.

Now, the question:
when attempting to fire the sniper rifle from flight, what should the - dicepool modifier be? I'm already thinking i'll double the recoil, and make the recoil knock him back. I didn't find anything regarding firing the sniper rifle from a standing position, which in my mind should incur a penalty. Any input on this would be appreciated.
