M-58 "MAYFLY" SAR Transport VTOL

Description
M-58 "MAYFLY" SAR Transport VTOL




The M-58 is an extremely capable platform with many advanced avionics and equipment.

With the current load-out the aircraft has a projected range of 350 km, which the plane calculated itself. The M-58 calculates a projected flight time and range based on its current fuel, liters per second, and speed.

For a VTOL aircraft, the transition from hover to flight is very stable. The aircraft sports multiple ways to fly itself but allows them all to be shut off for aerobatic flight. The automated flight features include,


Automatic Leveling
Overhead Panel

Altitude Hold
Port Dashboard

Heading Hold
Starboard Dashboard

Auto-Pilot - Position Hold - Waypoint - Return To Base
Center Dashboard - Center Console






Main Dashboard


2 Multi-Functional-Displays for situational awareness

3 Pylon controlling monitors to look through and control pylons 2, 3, and 4

1 Downwards facing camera to judge altitude and make precise landings

5 Jettison and Launch options for all the pylons

2 Sets of Head Mounted Display options, power, Head Tracking, and Night Sight

1 Auto-Pilot Controls Position Hold, WayPoint, Return To Base, all with meter precision






Over-Head Panel


Battery Switch to bring the aircraft to life

Transponder Locator to locate transponders

Exterior Lights Navigation lights, Strobe lights, Beacon lights, and Landing lights

Automatic Leveling to keep the aircraft upright

Rotor Pitch for forward flight

Long Range Radio to speak to the world

Cockpit lighting low, red, and bright

Cabin Climate Control to keep the passengers warm






Center Console


Flight Time, and Range to know how far you can go

Key Pad for entering in waypoints

Landing Gear to lift up the landing gear

Fuel Readout to see at a glance what your fuel looks like

Air-To-Air Refueling Probe allows the aircraft to fuel while flying

Parking Brake to relatively keep from sliding

Set RPS sets the speed of the engines

Rotor Clutches and Brakes to start and stop the rotors from spinning

Engine Readouts although this is displayed in the MFDs, having the analog dials gives a sense of security

Pylon Functions 1,2,3,4,5 this could possibly allow for racks upon racks of missiles (not like I've done this)

@abhobbs is there a way to increase the psi of the water cannon?
Abhobbs  [author] 23 Dec, 2022 @ 1:57pm 
@GhostEagle68 There is a Touchscreen monitor by the left pilot's knee.

How do you aim the water cannon?

@Death There are some parts where you need to be in multiplayer or at least pretend to be in multiplayer. The basket is one of those.
Death 1 Oct, 2022 @ 12:52pm 
dumb question but how do you use the basket i can get it to lower and things but after loading a person in it theres no way for me to get back to the helecopter

@Unequal Denominator I don't have discord but I invited you as a friend
Hammer 14 Jul, 2022 @ 8:53am 
this seems complicated, maybe you can add me on discord and walk me trough it?

@Unequal Denominator

input = output/s

pitch = rotor pitch

yaw = differential rotor pitch / differential collective

roll = differential collective / differential rotor pitch

To switch from vertical flight to horizontal flight you need to switch yaw and roll in your logic.
The nicest way is to multiply the roll and yaw inputs by your rotor tilt.

differentialCollective = yaw*rotorTilt + roll*(1-rotorTilt)

differentialRotorPitch = roll*rotorTilt + yaw*(1-rotorTilt)

hi, i've been wondering how you did the stuff for the pitch and roll for the tilting engines, im making my own vtol that requires this kind of control but cant figure out how its done

cool
