Description
Mod based on real project - "Jetpack Aviation" ( http://jetpackaviation.com).
BIS Forum: https://forums.bistudio.com/topic/194170-jetpack-wip/

1.Features:
- Jetpack inventory is disabled, so I've added possibility to put second backpack on chest with stuff you may need on your task.
- You can walk with backpack, but can't run (it's not limitation, it has been blocked intentionaly). If you start running by pressing shift or whatever is your key assigned to "turbo", you'll start flying.
- Helmet mounted display.
- Custom sounds (for now only bingo fuel).
- The possibility of landing on buildings (and anything else detected as floor by engine).
- G forces effects while flying instead of static animation:

2.Instructions:

note: Do not try to spawn it via soldier backpacks menu, it won't work and you'll get "bad vehicle type".

How to spawn it corectrly:
1. Go to Empty category then Jetpack and Stuff then select jetpack and put it on the ground in editor near your soldier. Then use "Turn on and take" to take jetpack.

or...

2. Paste in your soldier unit init this code (just remember in this case you'll have to take off backpack and use action "turn on and take" to make it works):
this addbackpack "riten_jetpack_bp"

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

- You can find jetpack in editor empty objects "Jetpack and Stuff" category.
- If you want to fly, just wear jetpack using action "Turn On and take" and press turbo key default "shift".
- For refuel/repair you need special items which you can find in empty objects "Jetpack and stuff" category.

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

A working script (mission) to the "studio", please.
This unit is hanging out from behind, and does not want to take off.

Funny that your little jetpack has a field of regard box but most aircraft and EO sensor systems in Arma 3 do not. Those other people need to get with it.
