Instructions:

Entry

Space hatch, located under right wing.Angled buttons on the hatch to activate.
Ground elevator, located under left wing. Can only be lowered from inside the ship or with the secret teal coloured switch located on the back of the left landing gears foot.
Hangar door, Underside. Can be sensor activated by moving under the lower part of the ship near the front landing gear.

Hangar crane system.

!!!IMPORTANT!!!

These steps must be followed to sucessfully load Chiroptera MK.II into the hangar. With a little practice is very easy.
Count down timers will appear on your HUD to assist you.

1.Do a fly by the underside of the ship under the front landing gear to activate the hangar door if closed.
2.U-turn towards the back of the ship and request landing.
3.Deactivate wing mode on Chiroptera.!!!IMPORTANT!!!
4.Fly towards the hangar door at a moderate speed keeping clear of the lower rear thruster. Shipyards can be inconsistent 1st person recommended for best results in my experience.
5.Once docked successfully open canopy and press the top button on either side of the control panel that hangs down once you dock.
6.Sit back down in the Chiroptera and activate yoke.
7.When the crane timer hits 1 un-dock from shipyard block. Crane maglock will not grab the ship if still docked at the shipyard.!!!IMPORTANT!!!
8.If maglock is successful the ship should now be hanging up near the boarding catwalk.

Loading ramp

!!!IMPORTANT!!!

DO NOT RAISE OR LOWER THE LOADING ELEVATOR WITH THE RAMP ACTIVE!!!
I really need to learn a ABCDDCBA circuit to prevent this. If your raise the loading elevator while the ramp is still hanging out the elevator will get stuck and splint into halves or quarters :(
Works perfecly fine if opperated in sequence.

similar to crane system. If loading a small hoverbike onto the loading ramp press the maglock timer which will count down 20 seconds.
You have this much time to get back on your bike and load it onto the elevator. Same as the crane maglocks wait until the timer hits about 2 or 3 seconds and exit vehicle.
This method will prevent the vehicle bouncing or hanging over the elevators edge while locking.

It's slightly harder than the crane method but can work. It was the best I could come up with.

Shout outs:

Thank Surge for putting this Idea in my head. It was just a piece of concept art in the Lasercastle design room. I may not have actually built it if he didn't suggest I do so.

Thank Alexy Skywalker who gave feedback on the use of cyan light on my Lasercastle build. This forced me to use more white light. This build has a main light switch (white) and secondary switch (cyan) so you can now choose between either or both im the main hangar.

Damn I forgot, Huge shout out to ProPeach for help with the inverted landing pad.
