Target Drone by Uncle T

Description
Do you want to practice your AA-gunnery skills or try to shoot down "enemy bombers" on your own?
Use Uncle T's brand-spanking new Target Drone!!! Single version of my Target Drone Formation.

A highly visible drones that fly in a straight line or turn left or right until it gets shot down, crasches or disappears off the map. It can even shoot back at you!

Note: the small machine guns do little damage, I recommend using something with the bigger ones or cannons.

How to use.
- Spawn the drone on a flat surface.
- Go into first person camera and select for the drone to turn left (red/Q) or right (green/E) on the left hand button. It can of course flight straight (grey) but will exit the map pretty quickly.
- Turn on (green) automated machine guns if you want them on the right hand button. They will fire at anything right behind them within 1,200 metres/distance units. They usually don't do that much damage to your plane but I have been straight up killed in my cockpit on more than one occasion.
- I recommend that you then go back to third person view but that's optional.
- Press Alt/Function key to start engine and hold W to gain elevation. It's a variable throttle and will be at full throttle after about 2 seconds and will still work if you are no longer in the vehicle.
- When you've reached your preferred elevation press S and W to get your vertical speed to 0 or as close as you can to avoid the drone crashing or disappearing into the stratosphere.
- Press AND HOLD X/Invert Steering to start main thrusters and drop landing gears. DO NOT TAP X since that engages the not so well working automatic recovery function for helicopters which usually crashes them horribly in my experience.
- Press K/Warning lights for extra thrusters. You can use only these for a slower ride but you need to Hold X to drop landing gears. You can then hold X again to disable main thrusters.
- L/Headlight for smoke and blinking lights making the drone easier to spot. Also looks cool.
- Exit drone with E and jump to your death or press F2 to jump to another vehicle you've already spawned, like an AA gun or a fighter plane.
- Speed with only main thrusters ~150kph, with only auxiliary thrusters ~120kph, with both ~210-230kph.
- It turns in a narrower turn the faster it goes because of how the rudders work. So slow = bigger circle, fast = smaller circle. It doesn't start turning until it reaches about 100 kph.
- The variable throttle means descending works so-so and is quite slow, so if you want to descend faster turn off Alt for a couple of seconds and the engine will cut out completely. Don't wait to re-start with Alt since the engine is very slow to start up.

Summary:
- First person, choose direction and guns on or off.
- Alt and W to climb.
- S (and W) to get climb rate to 0.
- Hold X to start thrusters and drop landing gears.
- K to start auxiliary thrusters.
- L to start smoke and lights.
- Exit drone with E or F2.

IMPORTANT!!!
Do not use pitch, roll (arrows or mouse) or yaw (A/D or mouse) since this will likely cause the drone to lose control. Very minor adjustments can be made but avoid if possible.

The drone has 4 gas tanks as "engines" and 4 gas tanks in the fuselage. Hit those and they will blow up.

And yes it looks janky AF but it works. :)
The wings do not provide any lift since it's technically a "helicopter", they're there purely for looks.
