Cayo Perico Metal Detector

[Beau Bauer]

Anybody happen to know what key to press on the Keyboard and mouse to make the Metal Detector work while on Cayo Perico? I've tried both mouse buttons, and the X, Z, E, F, G, and H keys but still nothing. If anybody could answer I sure would appreciate it.

Did you enter highlighted circle before using?

Yes, I did. One of my friends just told me that I probably don't have the Metal Detector yet because all I'm getting from the skeleton is money and a map with no metal detector located anywhere. Guess I'll keep grinding for it in the Public and Invite Only Groups then. Thank you though.

What's aim mode on keyboard? That's what it is on controller. There isn't any actual metal detector item you can switch to afaik, because the only time you can use it is when your weapons are locked out. FWIW, the only thing I've ever gotten from it is $15k. Only if it's directly on my route will I bother with it.

Watch on YT - where they are spawning.
You can find it in invite only session alone,wait for 30 minutes.
Use Hydra if you own it ,or other planes ,helis...
When you aproach skeleton you must collect detector,than look at map that hes holding.
After that detector can be used only on Cayo island when you're in treasure zone(s).
Hold right mouse button to activate it.
