HISTORY-
-After the success of the Sea-Spray, the navy wanted an armed version for extended patrols. The Sea-Fire had better protection against rust and other water related problems for the prolonged use in humid envirnments. It was widely accepted because of it's durable construction and easy to use controls.

Controls-
-Act. 1 turns on the deck lights.
Act. 2 unlocks the rear underside turret that is controlled with the VTOL and Trim bars.
-Act. 3 drops the small patrol boat. To use you must turn off Act.8 so the plane won't take off without you knowing. Keep the throttle under 5% at all times or it will definitely over-speed the engines. Yaw to steer. To go forward or backward, us the VTOL Bar to adjust the blade pitch. Put the VTOL Bar almost all of the way up/down (or it will over-speed) and slowly bring it back towards the middle. If you get the over-speed warning, just slide it back away from the middle. I found that 3% of the throttle and the VTOL Bar down just a little under the middle of the two lowest notches gave the best results. To control the little turrets on either side of the boat, use pitch and roll.
Act.4-7 all do the same for the turrets on the wings. VTOL is the elevation controls and the Trim is the horizontal turning.

Final Notes-
I haven't actually flown this due to it being too hard for my little laptop. It should fly but I can't give you any tips for this model, only from the previous model.
Thanks for reading and enjoy!
