A water plane with hybrid power: single prop and VTOL. Great for exploring the open waters. Skim along the water or go airborne.

Controls:
- VTOL: Adjust with VTOL slider. Push up to make nozzles point to rear.
- Prop: Activate with Group 1.
- Brakes: Set with Trim by sliding upward.

Handling Tips:
- Take Off: Don’t need full power. Point VTOL horizontal to the rear.
- Landing. Deactivate prop. Point VTOL to neutral position and backoff power to about 10%. Set brakes. If you find yourself upside down in the water after landing then add some throttle and do a roll maneuver.
