WARNING: FOR THIS VEHICLE TO WORK PROPERLY, YOU NEED TO HAVE YOUR PHYSICS DETAIL AT LEAST ON MEDIUM (RECOMMENDED TO BE ON HIGH IF YOU CAN HANDLE IT.)
ALSO NOT RECOMMENDED TO RUN ON MULTIPLAYER DUE TO STORMWORKS SERVERS BEING BUGGY

Current Top Speed: 1,055 KMH
Update 9/18/2025
Improved: Autopilot, shouldnt sway MUCH in wind however it still may sway, much more stable and will be more direct in its destination.
Added muting for ETW system and automatically mutes for 15 seconds after startup
Some Important Stuff:
-For Rescue Missions above oceans, set the Altitude Hold to 0,2-0,25.
-The pitch hold isn't perfect but i'm working on a LUA script to make it better.

"How To" Guides (I cant add anymore because of character limit)

How To: Use the Water Refilling Cycle
Step 1: Altitude
Your altitude MUST be below 140 Meters but is recommended to be within 50-120 Meters. You can accomplish this Easily with the Altitude Hold.
Step 2: Location
You MUST be above water for the cycle to work or else the cycle will not start, it is also not recommended to go above land until all cycles are done.
Step 3: Starting the Cycle
It is recommended to start the cycle when you start to notice a drop in pressure if your doing firefighting as this means that there is a very small amount of liquid and the pumps have to work harder. To start the cycle you Must be in stationary mode and make sure you have come to a full stop, after you've come to a full stop in stationary mode, turn on your altitude hold (Recommended, however not needed for this to work.) WARNING: The Refilling tank may get stuck before it connects, this may happen in high winds so if this happens, you may want to move the vehicle around to wiggle it free.
Step 4: Wait
Now the refilling cycle should be commencing your refill time will differ based on how empty your water is but for the tank to go from 0% to 95% (Sufficient) will take several cycles and about 10 minutes, however if your just going for a top off it will probably take only 1-2 cycles and about 2-3 minutes, however the fuller that your tank of water is, the slower the pumping rate is going to be (I have optimized it heavily so it shouldn't be too much of a drop.)
Your 5 status' for the pumping rate are Bad, OK, Good, Excellent, and Perfect.
Step 5: Done
At this point your cycles should be done and you should be safe to go back into plane mode as the refilling system will disable automatically after it is sufficiently full.
And that was how to use the Refilling System, if you have any questions or comments fell free to leave them in the comment section.
How To Turn on the Engines and Power
Step 1: Turn on Engine Starter
this is located above the Pilot when sitting in the pilots seat in the cockpit.
Step 2: Turn on Main Power/Avionics
This is located right next to the Engine Starter and Unlocks when engine starter is active, this allows for all the avionics and other vital stuff to be shown such as RPS, fuel, Altitude, speed, etc. Remember to also set the rotor clutch to 1, 0 being off and 1 being full and remember that the VM4 was designed to operate with a MAX RPS of 80 although you can get away with using less power.
Done
Emergency Exit Code: 8943
Not too hard, again if you have comments/questions leave them down below, I read them.
