This is the LePage XR 2B Attack Helicopter. It's a Twin Rotor design, which allowes for great ease of control and authority. The large cargo area is suitable for all kinds of goods that need transportation, be it soldiers, weapons or other sensitive cargo. For the extra large goods, a rope anchor on the bottom is perfectly suited to carry even heavy loads without too much interference, as it is placed below the CoL.

As armament, she is equiped with a Rotary Autocanon for quick and devestating strikes. Additionally two medium range missiles with Radar Detection allow the chase of incomming threats.
Besides these Pilot controlled offensive measures, there are two side mounted MGs, that will offer support. Even though they are as compact as they are, they offer the simplest controls and allow quick access to easily reload them.

The Twin Turbo Engines with enhanced start-up will allow quick and effective deployment of this Helicopter, even with short notice. Powered by several small motors, she is ready in no time!

Never forget the importance of Remote Controll! As a mandatory feature, you can get yourself out of any pinch by pulling out your remote and flying into position!
Note: The remote frequency is the same as the Radio Frequency that you set in the Cockpit!

Even though this Helicopter has been designed for offensive measurements, it is equiped with basic medical equipment, to ensure that no soldier is lost on the battle fields. Even if you need an additional seat for a wounded soldier, there are enough places for you to take home what is valuable.

A complex audio setup makes this perfect for multiplayer use. Automatic radio transmission when you press your PTT key, seamless communication with your co-pilot and incomming radio, and even the option to turn on your Megaphone and tell the enemy to freeze! You are in control here!

Seamless Multi Seat opperation is an important feature aswell. No matter if you prefer to sit left or right in the cockpit, both seats work the same and you never have to switch a button - hop in and off you go!

Also included is a precise and easy to use Radar map. Pop it up instead of the artificial Horizon and spot your enemies way before they even know what hit them.

In a recent update, the function of an Autopilot has been included. It is a combined Heading-Altitude Autopilot, so when you use it, make sure to have both values set propperly before engaging!
Once activated, the Autopilot will take over control and fly you to your destination, according to your input. Once arrived, the Autopilot will enter a Stand-By mode, where you get back authority while you are in close area of your Waypoint (about 200m). This will allow you to engage remote control - so in theory you can send this craft on it's own to a distant place where another person can land it remotely to take over manually!



Planned features beyond the Challenge:
- Full sliding doors
- retractable MG
- Autopilot (Edit: Autopilot is included now!)
