Controls:
Pitch – pitch with stabilators and, if AG1 is on, with rotor.
Roll – roll. I Recommend to have atleast 5% of throttle for it.
Yaw – yaw by vertical stabilizers. AG1 activates heli-style yawing.
VTOL – pusher prop operation, up is forward thrust and down for backward thrust.
Trim – trim of horizontal stabilators. If AG1 is on, also controls cyclic pitch.
AG1 – activates helicopter-style yawing and cyclic pitch of rotor through the inputs of Pitch and Trim.
AG2 – enables rotation and elevation of the cannon turret. Control by right mouse button, and third mouse button, normally it's just pressing a mousewheel. Range is 2-3 km for small moving ground targets, and up to 8-10 km for large targets. Recomennded speed is between 0-200 km/h TAS.
AG3 – enable missiles and open Hermes-A launchers. 2 big missiles are Kh-129 with 90 degrees targeting angle, 12 missiles in containers are Hermes-A, 4 Air-to-Air missiles are R-173 with 120 degree targeting angle. Munitions have realistic weights, so you'll have some negotiable banking moment when flying with a single Kh-129.
Also, Kh-129 has a very potent warhead(Let's pretend it uses advanced enhanced blast explosive), so don't shoot it at distances of less than 1-1.5 km.
AG4 – reserved.
AG5 – jettison air-to-air munitions.
AG6 – jettison air-to-ground munitions.
AG7 – turns the pusher props off, turns on additional collective pitch control of rotors, recommended for smoother vertical landings, and efficient vertical take-offs. I recommend to have VTOL at neutral when switching it.
AG8 – for gyroscopic suite, is enabled by default and holds stability while limiting roll and pitch, recommended for pure-helicopter-style cruise and precise landings, actually unneeded when in airplane-like flight at 350-400< km/h IAS.
Custom landing gear is sequenced by funky trees.

Turret targeting. Yes, you can have a literally pinpoint precision with those mod parts.
Don't hesitate to download the mod, delight of true mouse-driven turret targeting worth it!
