Offroader Water Carrier

Auto Credit Based on TomPedecy's Offroader Water Carrier

This is my first public build! This project started off as a simple boat experiment, with some turbo-fan engines. Soon i realised that these engines are not suitable it this situation, because the boat was too unstable. After that i started using VTOL muzzles. This was much more suitable for this project, but soon I realised that the max speed on water was about 330 mPH, so i had to take off some engines. Shortly after I had an idea to make this boat a Carrier for my offroad vehicle. I streched it in all dimensions and this is now the complete build. Added some guns to Offroader just for fun. When i biult this craft I wasnt checking CoM or CoT, I was simply building the craft by Trial and Error method. Controls are a bit scetchy but bear with me: Roll controls (A;D) for turning (use this only above 150mPH, lower than that wont do anything) Throttle +/- to control power to vtol engines AG1 to activate Vtol engines, Vtol muzzles, and rotors. Use Yaw controls (Q;E) to turn using Vtol engines (best maneuverability at low speeds) AG3 to release the offroader, activate its engine and turning system, as well as activating back wall release (Gates). Control the Back wall release with Yaw Controls (Q;E) AG4 Low struts for precise shooting. Controled with Vtol AG5 High struts for precise shooting. Controled with Vtol AG6 Right side Un-Flip Assistance. Controled with Vtol AG7 Left side Un-Flip Assistance. Controled with Vtol B for airbrake. Works only at high speeds.
