[Pacific Rim] What makes two pilots drift compatible?

If I were to become a pilot for a Jaeger, what traits should the other pilot have in order for us to be drift compatible? Do we also need to be the same weight when it comes to physical compatibility or is it all mental?

From what little we know it comes down to similar attitudes and temperaments. Sharing a similar outlook on life while also having similar brain wave patterns. You're quite literally sharing your thoughts and feelings and memories while drifting so being able to meld your opinions together instantly is key. Having to stop and debate or consider different emotional responses to stimulus will cause you to fall out of the drift if too strongly felt.
