Position-hold is accessible here and overrides Auto-Pilot and needs to be disengaged before Auto-Pilot will engage.
Tip: Double-tap "P" to disengage Autopilot if you're on another screen.


Switch to screen "1". Tap on the screen to select a destination, Hold q or e to Pan the map. Tap "A" to engage Auto-Pilot. Position-Hold will engage when you reach your destination. Switch that off by tapping "P" in the HUD. "C" centres the map on you. Zoom-bar is to the left.

You can enter coordinates from the in-game-map by using the key-pad which will select that as a target destination in the A.P screen.

Same as seat axis-controls for flying
1=Alt-hold toggle,2=Ramp open/close,
Harness Controls:
3=Down,4=Up,5=In,6=Out

NOTE: Only use remote-control on the selected channel and while vehicle is on and only attempt to fly it in Heli-mode.

Medium (hose) and large (water-cannon) fire-fighting modules included... The large one can be controlled via the connector video-feed. Tapping on the screen sets the water-cannon angle.

Suction attachment included for refilling tanks from the sea (Attach with electric-cable via harness pulley - hose attachment can be directly connected to tank/suction pump (Blue connector)).

NOTE: Fluid-pressure bugs: after a sea-water tank has been re-filled then the pressure may drop to 0 after a couple of seconds no matter how powerful the pump - connecting and running the suck and spray pump anchors for a couple of seconds can fix this.

Remove the harness and the 8-seat extender module first. Use a combination of "Open" and "Loading" ramp modes to load modules. You can use the winch with a cable to help with loading modules some modules. Some modules require power from the connector by the cockpit.

All systems bespoke.

All my creations tend to be works in progress, but should be fully functional when posted. Please report issues in the comments below. Thanks for your attention and please like (if you like the creation).
