(i) Useful tips: During flight, turn on gyro (ag6), hold yaw & roll to direction you want, then disable plane controls (-ag5). After the engine warmed up, click the launch catapult button.Balance the plane (turn on ag6 again), click the button inside the cockpit to unfold wings.(i) Also turn off ship yaw (ag8) so the ship stay stable.

de/acceleration will move the winch cable. (i) I suggest to do it when ship speed is constant.

Or a simpler method without catapult, just throw the seaplane into water and take off as usual. Drop the seaplane (ag6) and it will stick to the launch platform.Also, keep the seaplane aligned with the catapult (yaw). Now lower the winch until the bar is slight in front of launch platform. You can notice there's a bar protruding below the floater.Press the catapult rotate button then rotate the crane (roll) until the seaplane above the launch platform.Now, stick the magnet (ag6) then pull up the seaplane.Pull down the winch (pitch) until the magnet touch center of the canopy.Turn on the crane (landing gear), adjust crane extension (trim) until the top view camera is above the aircraft canopy (the glass parts).But if you want to use the seaplane, follow these steps. Landing gear: Activate crane controls & slide hangar hatchĪnd 2 extra buttons on portside catapult which i'll explain in next section.
