Instruction manual
Undocking Vertibird
1. Go to flight control room. Press button A and B of Vertibird you want to use.
2. After the boom lowered, Turn on Vertibird (Ag1-4).
3. Wait for the engines to power up then unlock the hook (LandingGear).
(!) Better get to high altitude before releasing Vertibird.
4. Go back to flight control room. Press counterweight button to stabilize airship center of mass. Also disable Airship controls (-Ag8).
5. Now you're flying. Go clean any abominations you see.
(i) You can deploy only 1 Vertibird at a time due to limitation in control grouping. So park the first one somewhere then deploy next Vertibird.
(i) The counterweight can balance 1 empty dock on that side. If you want to deploy more Vertibird, do it on oposite side.
Docking Vertibird
1. Lower the docking boom (button A). Approach the Prydwen carefully not to collide.
(!) To avoid collision, i recommend approach from below in case the Vertibird haven't slowed down.
2. Deploy docking hook (LandingGear). Get the hook inside the ring.
3. You may need to adjust the tail. You can pitch up safely now and yaw the tail until it below the hanger.
4. Go to flight control room. Lock the tail (button B), Turn off Vertibird (-Ag1-4), Raise docking boom (button A), and lastly turn off counterweight button.
5. Welcome back Lancer! Watch your step out here. Its a long way down.
(i) This is really hard even if ThePrydwen isn't moving but still possible. Kinda like threading a needle.

This is one of the coolest planes ever, I love the idea of carrier planes. Expeshily those that use means other than a full on landing strip
Hi
hey @Bogey you think you could make a fallout 3 vertibird? id love to see a well done one on the site
@Noplane Mine worked well. Have you detach it from docking boom? Or does the rotor spin?
@Bogey I did and it didn't want to work I couldn't fly iff
@Noplane I don't know about mobile. I think it's still the same controls just follow the undocking guide above
@bogey how do I take off the verti on mobile
@Bogey alr man thanks
@TheHaggisBasher I don't post light build but you can remove the flight computer inside vertibird (use xray mode to find it). Then drag the detacher (it will move the enitre vertibird if cockpit already removed) move to sub assemblies. After that create new blank project, paste from sub assembly and add new flight computer/cokpit
@CPDD The button on flight control room will turn off magnet
@bogey could you release the vertibird on its own so mobile players can use it?
Haha Hindenburg 2 go boom
Why can't this magnet be removed?
@Bogey OHHH! I thought you meant like a keyboard B. I saw the issue, thank you so much! Was capable of re-docking a vertibird, one of the best I've seen before in terms of reducing mechanisms on this site!
Great 9.5/10
@Kazin Idk for mobile but i think same as PC
Switch to flight control room camera. From original view position, look to your left/right. The button is big enough to be noticeable
@Bogey For mobile or controller, where can I find this button?
@MarxismLeninismMaoism Press
button Bto turn off magnetsI've been waiting YEARS for a good Prydwen, and this is the winner, thank you so much!!!!!!
cant detach the warbird from the magnet
Ok tnkx
