Fuel Consumption: 0.01 to 0.1 L/s

This is a ducted fan coaxial rotor helicopter.

It cannot float; however, you can leave it on hold altitude 1.75 and keep it above the ocean in calm seas. Higher seas at maybe 2 meters, there is enough temporary air in the pipe to keep it up with higher seas, but it might be better to not do that.

Includes semi-Autopilot, map and HMD radar. If you dont want the HMD radar, just disconnect the video feed on the pilot seat.

To turn the radar on, look at the map and press the 'R' button.

To use the sonar, make sure to set Hold Altitude 1.75 so it is dunked into the water, then look at the map and press 'S'. Mode P = passive, A = active. Active sonar also shows fish, which can be disabled with the wildlife option in the settings.

The ducted fans are -not- connected to the auto-pilot, so you have to trim them. You can also turn them off to get standard heli controls for high-precision landing to air-lift things.

The winch will automatically fall off the hardpoint and turn the magalls on with the Winch Down. It will turn them off on winch up. It cannot re-mount the magalls back onto the helicopter.

Also note, trying to air-lift anything heavy can easily destabilize the heli. (I'm not sure why)

How to use:
- Start Engine
- lift off
- press 2 to enable fast mode for the ducted fans.
- Hold ALT + W to trim the fans forwards. (You can stop trim by holding ALT + W + S at the same time)
