This is a wheel that uses centrifugal force to simulate gravity on a small rover while airborne. Start at one of the airport approaches and throttle to around 20%. After a few seconds to get up to speed, detach the vehicle using ACT 1. To drive the vehicle up the wheel, move VTOL up about half a notch and move the right stick up slightly. The wheel can operate in water.
