The SCT-1 was developed to answer the needs of transporting high value items direct from point to point without the need to use cargo ships or semi trucks. This vehicle is equipped with the main helicopter engine, a secondary semi truck engine for land movement and a VTOL jet engine that supplies thrust to the control nozzles.

RECOMMENDED OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
AG-1 to start main engine, min throttle to take off is 36%.
AG-3 to raise wings to assist with flight
TRIM- Is used to pitch throughout flight
ROLL- Default controls
* **At this point its recommended max throttle at 70% or below and trim slightly above middle, this will allow controlled flight at just under 200mph.

Head north/northeast to yeager, as you get closer begin to throttle down to around 40% to allow transport to safely descend.
***When close to 3000 ft throttle down to low 30% and bring wings/wheels back down to allow for safe landing by pressing AG-3 again.

LAND MOVEMENT OPERATION
AG-1 to deactivate main engine
AG-4 to activate land engine, use low throttle to keep speeds low
ROLL- to steer
BRAKE- default control

RECOMMENDED UNLOADING
AG-2 to lower transport
AG-7 to unload sea can
AG-2 to raise transport
***At this point the can has been successfully delivered and you may drive out of the hanger.

Please comment with any suggestions, Thank You
