@itspyx1 it's great hear that you and your brother had great memories with this vehicle mate. =) I know there are other technically more complicated or better engineered vehicles out there but I always prioritised fun factor and usability for my creations. Glad to be part of the fun you both had. Cheers!

i want to say I've never seen a VTOL so good I've been on steam now for gosh know how long, I've never thought of unsubscribing to it! even when i couldn't play storm works! so that just shows how good it is keep up the work I've had some great memories with my older brother on here! saving NPC's or escaping tsunamis and i thank you for those great memories for with out you we would of had a great time.

this is still to this day one of my favorite vtols

@Matsjothijs that's a point defence turret (shoots down anything behind) and is fully automated. You can activate it on the gunner side of the cockpit.
Matsjothijs 28 Oct, 2024 @ 10:48am 
Yeah but i mean the gun on the back, that one dont work. Unless that ones automatic but idk for sure.
bumblemert  [author] 27 Oct, 2024 @ 8:56am 
@Matsjothijs Missiles won't launch if there is no target. You have to lock on a target first and it's automatic.
Matsjothijs 26 Oct, 2024 @ 6:09am 
Yea i did.
bumblemert  [author] 25 Oct, 2024 @ 2:27pm 
@Matsjothijs Did you arm them?
Matsjothijs 25 Oct, 2024 @ 8:57am 
The guns aren't shooting for some reason. Idk if its me or something else.
bumblemert  [author] 2 Oct, 2024 @ 3:34pm 
@Scare_You_Away_Crow haha no problem mate, glad you like them both! Yeah this is the first version before Warden.
Scary_Pumpkin_Crow 2 Oct, 2024 @ 2:21pm 
my bad, the Warden was the first one i saw. I really like how you made these VTOL's tho, i love em
Scary_Pumpkin_Crow 2 Oct, 2024 @ 2:20pm 
oh wait im an idiot- its supposed to be like the Warden...
Scary_Pumpkin_Crow 2 Oct, 2024 @ 2:19pm 
i like how its a gun version tho, what i was looking for. Thx
Scary_Pumpkin_Crow 2 Oct, 2024 @ 2:18pm 
this looks so much like the Warden..
bumblemert  [author] 11 Aug, 2024 @ 12:25pm 
@NathanYT512 yeah go on have fun.
NathanYT512 31 Jul, 2024 @ 6:50pm 
can i make a fan made verson and publish this?
im a pretty good builder, not as good like this but can i make a fan made
bumblemert  [author] 17 Jul, 2024 @ 4:17pm 
@ADAMEK_STEK yeah I should have added keyboard controls too.
ADAMEK_STEK 20 May, 2024 @ 9:16am 
great build but why is the gun always on mouse aim its too unstable:steamthumbsdown:
bumblemert  [author] 13 Apr, 2024 @ 3:04pm 
@everyone Afterburner function has been removed. This is because it is impossible to align the center of thrust with the center of mass without drastically changing the design of the aircraft.
Shadowjaydoo 10 Apr, 2024 @ 11:01pm 
The afterburner function is still pitching my nose down
Vector_059 28 Mar, 2024 @ 9:34am 
Thank you so much, looking forward to it!:bfengineer:
bumblemert  [author] 27 Mar, 2024 @ 8:04am 
@Vector_059 glad you like it mate, yeah sure why not I'll add cutting the rope thingy.
Vector_059 21 Mar, 2024 @ 1:10am 
Greetings creator of this beautiful VTOL, I still can't help but play with it, so much I like it and find it handy! I wanted to ask, can you make a button to cut the ropes on this version and on the warden version, which are at the bottom, so that
so you can drop off vehicles and crates? That would be very handy. I hope you will read my comment! All the best , hope you keep up the great ideas and solutions:fh4superstar:!!!!
bumblemert  [author] 24 Jan, 2024 @ 12:11pm 
Hey everyone, here are some updates after Space DLC;
Fixed the annoying jet exhaust smoke bug and changed the engine design.
Fixed the issue with afterburners that makes the aircraft pitch down.
bumblemert  [author] 1 Jan, 2024 @ 1:58am 
@am pro what? I'll check it man thank you. I guess it's broken after couple of updates.
am pro 31 Dec, 2023 @ 8:42pm 
I love this craft but the only problem I have with it is when you activate the afterburner it throws the aircraft into the ground
Stormtrucker29 5 Nov, 2023 @ 11:10am 
Good work dude
bumblemert  [author] 9 Aug, 2023 @ 3:22am 
@droggelbecher09 thank you!
droggelbecher09 16 Jul, 2023 @ 11:40am 
very cool creation!
bumblemert  [author] 14 Jul, 2023 @ 3:11am 
@brokenblane thank you!

@Dutch Mapper hey man thank you so much. Modify it as you like.
brokenblane 13 Jul, 2023 @ 11:02am 
this guy is the goat
Dutch Mapper 8 Jul, 2023 @ 9:55am 
This craft is amazing. It's very multi purpose. Using it for rescue missions is great and the weapon systems even allows rescues close to the AI (more in multiplayer then single player.)

@bumblemert thanks for making it. I've been giving one a new look by painting it into a Dutch coastguard livery and have added a medical bed in the bay (removed one side of benches for it.) It's a amazing thing ans the modified version is only for my own use but thought you'd like to know about it.
bumblemert  [author] 10 Jun, 2023 @ 3:52pm 
@subspace thank you man!
bumblemert  [author] 10 Jun, 2023 @ 3:51pm 
@inuria. master arm should be activated to shoot
inuria. 9 Jun, 2023 @ 2:19pm 
how can i shoot its not working
Im Not Mentally Ill 27 May, 2023 @ 2:58am 
Damn this is really good
Mach6X 13 May, 2023 @ 7:48pm 
@bumblemert Know I've tried both keyboard and joystick....thought I tried the mouse controls too but I can try it again and see how it is.
bumblemert  [author] 7 May, 2023 @ 3:38pm 
@Mach6X keyboard or mouse controls?
Mach6X 5 May, 2023 @ 6:19pm 
Update: Can you tweak the yaw sensitivity or something? Front guns are very hard to aim in the VTOL mode, the yaw is incredibly sensitive and you have to aim the aircraft down, which makes it go forward.......otherwise cool!
bumblemert  [author] 2 May, 2023 @ 8:05am 
@Mach6X thank you! After hit by a spray of gatling cannon I lost control and decided to add this system for the propellers and it worked very well even during combat.
Mach6X 1 May, 2023 @ 7:39pm 
Just want to say the auto-repair system is genius!
CTH2004 27 Apr, 2023 @ 7:48am 
fair enough, thanks!

wonder if it would be possible to somehow make something able to repair at least the entire outer hull... hmm... sounds expensive though!
bumblemert  [author] 26 Apr, 2023 @ 1:06pm 
@CTH2004 It only repairs rotor blades and back of the jet engines so I just placed 4 mounted welders very precisely. They have like 3 to 4 blocks effective range but I recommend you to test them by yourself. They may need empty blocks in front of them. I also made the system with a toggle to push thingy before a capacitor. They consume lots of electricity and you don't want to connect them to a toggle button. You can add more of them and cover even more systems just be sure your battery capacity is enough and feed them with fast charging generators.
CTH2004 26 Apr, 2023 @ 9:17am 
out of curiosity, how does the auto-repair system work? I mean, how do you cover most of the ship effectivly?

Just curious!
tercifer 22 Apr, 2023 @ 8:31pm 
amazing:steamthumbsup:
jaba12346 22 Apr, 2023 @ 5:47pm 
could you add door guns
jbondhus 20 Apr, 2023 @ 10:04am 
Just flip it to plane mode before the engines power up, as soon as you're out of the hanger switch it back to VTOL mode. Works great for me, because the engines are still powering up when it's in plane mode it moves slow enough.
AerospaceSky216 20 Apr, 2023 @ 10:00am 
A taxi mode could be really nice to have, rotors partly or fully down but on low power to drive out of the hanger
