its a real working stealth hovercraft, with 2 cool missiles that fold away and are hidden inside. works on land and sea but not runways for some reason. very fun to fly. had to start in deployed mode because of missile air need. DO NOT EXCEED 50% THROTTLE ON WATER, you will flip her. 100% is OK on land but be wary of the hills cos u don't want to catch air.

TO USE, start in water location. Roll contols direction
1, detaches fuel and switches on thrust engines.
2, operates doors (VTOL slider).
3, opretates missile foldaway mechanism (VTOL slider).
4, rotates missiles to launch position (VTOL slider).
5, activates missile engines.
6, fires missiles.

my usual start up routine is press 1, to dump fuel, then press it again. I then throttle to 50% as makes the craft more stable, then 3 to fold missiles and 2 for doors. only then do on I hit 1 to thrust forwards.

my usual missile launch routine is to almost stop and deactivate thrust engines (1) then open doors, deploy missiles. Then I turn off the doors n deployer, hit 4 and turn missiles to launch position. Then hit 5 and let the missiles engines spool up before hitting 6 to fire.

Sorry for the long instructions but I wanted to be clear
*please rate, comment and check out my other contraptions. Thank you*

    @GreyFox if you keep the throttle at 50 percent in the water, 60 percent on the land she is very stable. No flips at all, its all in the description.
