Swift 2
SWIFT
A small Catamaran with a nice living cabin, auto pilot and moveable first person view.
Moving around (first person view):
Activate this function with activation group 1.
Use PITCH to go forward and backward, ROLL to go to the side
and YAW to move up and down. Switching off Activate1 brings you back to the steering wheel.
Operating the boat:
The Sails buttons on the right adjust the sails.
The buttons under F adjust the front sail, the ones under R the back sail.
The buttons under the display control the auto pilot. Button A switches the auto pilot on, < and > control the heading. The Heading can be entered while the auto pilot is on or off.
The Button On switches the electric engines on which are controlled by the lever on the left.
Always switch the engines off when sailing so they won’t create drag in the water.
There is a second control panel inside the cabin. The left one is identical to the auto pilot control panel on the main steering console; the right one controls the engines.
The boat works well with wind speeds up to 35 mph, use higher speeds at your own risk.
The ocean mod makes the sailing experience very nice but is not needed.

@JuanShot2Go I feel honored! Hardy57 has helped me with the finetuning and programming. From him also comes the first person mode.
Nice! Had a quick sail, but this build deserves some serious play time which I intend to enjoy over the weekend.
@R4FABR Thank you!
Beautiful!!
