Ray LX-319 ALTA Tandem-Rotor Cargo Helicopter
BACKGROUND
The LX-319 heavy-lift helicopter, built by (fictional) Ray Industries since 2018, is a tandem-rotor powerhouse designed for cargo operations. Engineered to meet demanding industrial standards, the LX-319 is powered by a high-performance twin turbine jet engine and boasts an impressive 9,000 kg lifting capacity. Equipped with dual cargo hatches (rear and floor drop-down), a precision remote-controlled winch system, advanced radar, and avionics, the LX-319 is built for versatility, and capable of transporting up to 4 UniCon containers.

TIPS
[list]
[*] The helicopter tends to yaw to the left when in start-up mode, this can be countered by pressing yaw right and applying wheel brakes. Alternatively, don't engage the rotor clutch until the engines are in idle mode, this will prevent any spinning.
[*] When making a precision landing, use the "UNDR" camera, align the helicopter, toggle position hold, and descend.
