Blue Ocean - Kraken

Level 5, starter hover.

After successful tests of the StreetSweeper flight mode, the engineers developed the idea further more. The result was a new flight mode, the SkyCleaner. Since the SkyCleaner unfortunately was not compatible with the octopus, a new hover was developed... the Kraken.

The Kraken has a good acceleration and his appearance is similar to his predecessor. It's armed with 4 miniguns and 4 gatling turrets. Also, it comes with the StreetSweeper flight mode and it's the only one of Blue Ocean's hovers wich is equipped with the experimental SkyCleaner flight mode.

What is SkyCleaner?
SkyCleaner is a new invention from the engineers of Blue Ocean for the Kraken. It works the same way like StreetSweeper but reversed. SkyCleaner raises the ship's nose by 45 degrees and stabilizes it. Hectic and annoying ship pitching becomes superfluous and drone units can be eliminated efficiently and accurately. Once disabled the ship will align itself.
Note: SkyCleaner only works properly at 3 m hover height and please don't use the "AutoGroup" function it causes a system overdrive. Don't run both modes at the same time.

What is StreetSweeper?
The StreetSweeper Flight Mode from Blue Ocean was developed for a special purpose, easy and efficient eliminating of close combat units on the ground. It was used for the first time by the Oktopus model. StreetSweeper automatically lowers the ship's nose by 45 degrees and stabilizes it. Hectic and annoying ship pitching becomes superfluous and ground units can be eliminated efficiently and accurately. Once disabled the ship will align itself.
Note: StreetSweeper only works properly at 3 m hover height and please don't use the "AutoGroup" function it causes a system overdrive. Don't run both modes at the same time.

By the way. I know its a bit confusing but when you switch to red it means the flight mode is enabled. Switch it to green means the mode is disabled and you can continue cruising around.
