[TBS] LePage XR 2A SAR Helicopter

-----------------------

Update:
I made some major adjustments to the Autopilot and in conjunction to the Monitor Interface aswell:
a) Transponder Locator and Autopilor now share the same screen. This has the Plus in convenience that you only need to click on the monitor, where the Locator Rings point you to. Super easy to reach your destination and finding vehicles in distress!
b) The Autopilot now also uses a Circle-Function. What it does is to circle the Helicopter around Waypoint 1, when active. The Circle Distance can be set on the Microprocessor (Slider). Default is 500m.


Update:
- New implementation of the Autopilot: Instead of a One-Point Keypad Destination, you now use the Touchscreen.
Place up to 9 Nodes by clicking on the Screen. Turn the AP on/off with the icon in the top left corner.
- New implementation of Beacon Finder: Greatly improves finding people in despair by placing ring markers on the map. Search where all the circles cross each other, the marker is quite precise. Turn on Markers in the top left corner.
- Litening Pod now starts with Camera facing forwards


Update:
- Fixed an issue with hover flight, where the Helicopter would still slightly move forwards and lose altitude.

This is the LePage XR 2A Search and Rescue 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. 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 Litening Pod for great visual scouting.
Additionally there is a rotary canon and two side mounted MGs, that will offer support in dangerous situations. 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!
The Remote frequency for the extendable Winch is Radio +1 Frequency! Buttons are labeled to show Hotkeys required.

Even though this Helicopter has originally been designed for offensive measurements, it is equiped with extended medical equipment, to ensure that noone is lost. Even if you need an additional seat for a wounded person, 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!
