That's a very old creation of mine. I'd probably need to revisit it and update it

How do i deploy? When i spawn on land it has the gear up and wont get on its wheels. so it explodes when you start moving
Water it says no space

Fuselage started from a Cat but it's inspired by a Sikorsky S-43 as I wrote in the Description

@KirbyKirbyKirby17 I added a line for precision: when moving for takeoff with collective to max, increase throttle a bit (about 20%) to move and keep the engines alive.

When ready for takeoff, brake, collective almost back to zero (0.20 - 0.30) steering lock, increase throttle to max, release brake, collective to max and pitch up.

Once in the air, raise landing gear, enable gyro to keep stable. When you reach your desired altitude, throttle back a bit and enjoy.

Also, putting the engines to full throttle causes the plane to get flung backwards at incredible speed.

I followed all the ground takeoff instructions:Master Avionics, Magnetos, Control Surfaces, Nav Lights, Throttle at 12%, Start Engine 1 & 2, Collective to Max ,Release Brakes and Line-up for takeoff. But, while I'm moving to the runway, the engines keep dying and turning off and the only way to keep them moving the plane is to hold the starter for the entire duration of the taxiing, which results in the plane spinning out of control.

@Gemini2004 I work a bit with Kriger and i have played with the idea but no plans from me yet

@Gemini 2004; thank you :) I have a few small boats in mind I'd like to build but for some reason every time I try I don't like them as much as the other creations and so I just never finish them. It's in the plans to be able to ever finish and publish at least one small boat.

all of these Krieger vehicles have so much awsome interior. i wonder if Krieger will get some smaller creations like some idk. barge tugs or a few rhibs for the larger boyos

Nah, no need for this one. I have other planes that will certainly need it. On the other hand, you can add it to your own custom version though. Just let me know in advance in you want to post it.
