Usage

Spawn in the hangar, open door with toggle, rear port side.
Pilot seat is the left one, flick on electrical isolator between seats then hold starter button middle of dash for a couple of seconds.
To the left of the pilot seat is the propeller pitch, full forward for flight, 0 for running motors not moving (charge things from the nose cone if you want) and down/reverse to make the plane go backwards!
W/S is Elevators
A/D is Roll
LEFT/RIGHT is Yaw
UP/DWN is Throttle
1 is gear
2 is water spray
3 is landing light
4 is stability and hold altitude control

To re-fill water tank, fly low over water (real low) press 4 for auto altitude and hop out of pilot seat, move over to the water re-fill seat and use keys 1,2,3 to lower and raise water intake on winch and to pump water in!
Slow down a little to make it easier!

If your plane goes flat battery you can go around the front and see 3 buttons, middle one opens up the planes nose and left and right ones lower the electrical connector, you can recharge plane using this, it runs off another set of batteries so will work!
If you like you can start your planes engines, leave propellers on 0 pitch and use this to charge other vehicles!

Pretty much, although it has the firefighting extras.
Isn't a DC 4 just a 3 with more engines? lol.

@lucas07 look to your left and see the pitch control. Not just throttle needed ;)
