Cormorant Shuttle Airdrop Assembly

Description
A system for dropping the Star Trek Shuttle Submersible as seen here https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2282997803

Steps to execute airdrop:
1. Climb into Cormorant Transport Plane Cockpit, use WASD key to back up the plane to pick up the shuttle
2. Go to map, and select a waypoint near where you want the shuttle to drop, and enter it into transport plane's left keypad
3. Select a return waypoint for the transport plane to land afterwards, and enter into the transport plane's right keypad
4. Climb out of the plane, and walk to the back of the shuttle and pick up a Handheld Radio
5. Climb the ladders on the back of the shuttle until you get onto the shuttle's back ledge, then look for inward facing ladders, and interact with it to get inside the shuttle.
6. Take out the Handheld Radio, press G to switch to channel "0", and left click to transmit on channel 0 to activate the transport plane's autopilot. The autopilot will take you to the drop point.
7. When near the drop point, take out the Handheld Radio, press G to switch to channel "1" and left click to transmit on channel 1 for the shuttle to drop from the plane.


Note: You may have to be in first person mode to use the Handheld radio when seated.

Ok let me make this unlisted while I see if I can fix it, it has to do with with the acceleration of the cargo plane and the strength of the magnets.

When ever I do the autopilot the shuttle just falls out as soon as the vtol starts moving.

that is true, but it would allow for refueling for an alternator (if you choose to add engine)

Yeah that will work. Though a minor issue would be being able to see the connectors sticking out the top.

using fuel connectors or elec connectors can make an unbreakable bind, only small and magalls get disconnected with stress

I see, after some testing. I think the problem is the either the cargo plane accelerating too quickly and stressing the magnets, or the shuttle not following the cargo plane in a turn. This might take some time to fix.

It happens when it transitions

Can you give me an idea of when it decouples? for instance does it decouple just when it's taking off, or when it's transitioning from VTOL mode to horizontal flight?

When i use it it just decouples the vehicle mid air
