One of my largest carriers so far, the NS Vater II is around the same size as the NS Vater.

Trim slider: Control rudder. Up=turn to starboard. Down=turn to port
VTOL slider: Controls propeller pitch. Up=forward Down=reverse. Works best when the VTOL slider is around 1/3 up/down

Sail at 10% thrust when not turning. Increase thrust when turning to maintain speed.

    @Stellarlabs Just ran it aground on its maiden voyage. So I guess it won't serve well.
