GG-1 "Micro Bird" - Small Exploration Helicopter

Description
This small helicopter has been designed for exploration at sea.

You can land it on boats ! Use rope anchors to attach it to the bridge ( important , very light ! )

With a top speed of almost 100 knots and a great maneuvrability, it's the perfect choice for exploring the Sawyer Islands or for investigating a small archipel.




The ship on the picture have been made by Steph :

it would be cool if you made a medical variant

If anyone else has the same idea I did and adds mag-alls to the landing skids to try to clamp it down so it's still there after a tsunami... Don't do it.

Some weird glitch caused every block on the poor thing to be damaged. I welded it up but now the door won't open. Now I have to use something huge to drag it, banging and crashing, all the way to a base that can despawn it, 'cause I flew it to one that can't before the Incident.

Very nice little chopper! Just a suggestion; add a fourth rope anchor on the forward left-hand "corner" it will make it easier to secure to the boat's helipad (using winches to tighten the ropes it won't move even in the worst possible weather). Thaks.

It's an exploration helicopter. If you want an armed version, I won't do it.

Make an army version with rocket pods and a small machinegun

Yes, it got broken after an update on the Experimental branch. I'm working on a modular version that should be released on thursday 18.

for me it just cant lift off the ground, i believe thats in experimental, not sure about main branch

Mmh, that's strange. Are you playing in experimental too ?
