 FTL Drive: ships with FTL drive can access hyperspace once they have built up enough power and have passed outside of the gravity well of any planet, moon or star.  Once the jump is made, the ship travels a rate of 1 light-year in 1d4 (random) hours.  Since each sector is 10 light-years and it takes on average 2.5 hours to cross a light year, a sector can be crossed, on average 25 hours, or 1 standard Galactic Day.  The exit point of each hyperspace entry must be decided at the point of jump and can't be changed once FTL is activated.   FTL Drive: ships with FTL drive can access hyperspace once they have built up enough power and have passed outside of the gravity well of any planet, moon or star.  Once the jump is made, the ship travels a rate of 1 light-year in 1d4 (random) hours.  Since each sector is 10 light-years and it takes on average 2.5 hours to cross a light year, a sector can be crossed, on average 25 hours, or 1 standard Galactic Day.  The exit point of each hyperspace entry must be decided at the point of jump and can't be changed once FTL is activated.
