Carbine VPT Big Glider
(Base Model is the Carbine VPT not the VP). Here is an example of what I mean, that you guys can have fun making your own gliders to go on top of this thingy. I made a larger glider that took a while to get right, and it is pretty fun to watch it fly as you sail along. Here is the description for the original glider so you can understand what this craziness even is. If you don’t like sailing with an epic model plane thing on your roof that can fly, this is not the boat edit for you. Basically, I figured that parasailng is cool, yata yata yata, I tried making a little glider that could go up from my boat. This is meant for people to then make their own little gliders that can be put on these winches and possibly on this boat if they like it. Go in a streight line, and once you reach around 60mph, put vtol up, and you will be absolutely blinded by sheer epicness (it flies). Then just bring the vtol down to return the glider. Refer to the instructions of the VPT to drive the boat, and use vtol to operate the glider winch: Do not immediatly put the throttle at 100. Turn on 8 and use trim for forward and reverse. Trim all the way down for reverse, all the way up for forward, no inbetween. When done setting the driving direction, return trim to zero and use it as actual steering trim. I have set it so as long as you have it all the way at the top or bottom you are fine at 100 percent. Press 2 for lighting, roll for turning, 8 with trim all the way up or down for reverse and forward (you can turn off 8 when you have it set to the mode you want. This boat is meant for you to customize it to your liking, and available lights are on the dashboard if you want to program them to stuff. Welp, have fun sailing my guys. (If you want the AI to be able to drive it, make the prop have automatic prop trim)
