Auto Credit Based on TTHHSSSS's Zipline Drone
Hey everyone! First serious post in a while. Zipline’s revolutionary drone service is pretty amazing, so I thought I would try to replicate it (with some imaginative freedom).
To fly, use trim to set the angle of the launcher, vtol all the way up, throttle up, and press 1. Be sure to let the throttle spool up for a few seconds otherwise bad things happen. Also make sure the launch arm isn’t wobbling.
Ag 1 also for gyro (automatically turns on at launch to stabilize)
Ag 2 extends the landing hook (works on carrier)
Ag 3 for the emergency parachute
Ag 5 and 6 for the package drop and parachute.
You can just belly land to bring it down or use the carrier.
Enjoy!

Ik, impractical to just have one not running without it actually feathering like the real thing @terriblegoatman
It's cool but the real zipline delivery drone only uses one of its engines at a time, the only reason it has two is because it has a backup of everything
@bogdanx finally uploaded something
