Todd587 Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 (edited) This is an all-terrain hovering vehicle that can drive on land, water, and fly in the air performing acrobatic stunts. It's based on a remote control craft called the Hydro-Foam (also known as the Storm Launcher) that performs similarly. It will drive like the Vortex on land or water until you make it up to about 50 mph or so when you can pull back on the flight controls to lift off. After you're up, can have fun flying around with pretty good agility. Flying tips: -When driving on land or water, keep speed below 30 or 40 mph. -Small steering corrections are best, especially when driving on land or water. -To lift off, simply get up to speed and pull back on the yoke (same up/down controls as other planes use). -Turning is done mostly by rolling sideways and pulling back on the yoke. -To fly upside down, roll 180 degrees and hold the yoke up -To land, hold brake and it will drift down Download Here UPDATE: UPDATE 12/19/07: Feel free to create your own paint schemes for it, and if you want post them here for everyone. Have fun Edited December 19, 2007 by Todd587 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picolini Posted December 25, 2006 Share Posted December 25, 2006 There are plenty of maps that show car locations. One would be near the northern most bridge, a little west in Las Venturas. It's next to the house with the dock by the water. Across the street from the Tee Pee motel place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todd587 Posted December 28, 2006 Author Share Posted December 28, 2006 (edited) I liked the video, good flying like I said in my comment. And I see by your other videos you must live in Chicago. I'm about an hour away in Elgin... ever heard? Yea I'm currently going to school in Chicago; the Illinois Institute of Art. And yea i've heard of Elgin, though i've never been that far out - my boundaries are basically within the reach of the CTA Oh and thanks a lot for the comment!

Blades Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 (edited) That looks amazing. I'm sure I've seen the real one on iwantoneofthose.com or some website like that. I'll be sure to download it when I get back to my own PC. (Currently I'm 30 miles away at my parents' house for christmas/new year). But the main reason I wanted to post is: Picolini, you said you live in Elgin. I live near the real (i.e the 1st) Elgin, in Aberdeenshire, NE Scotland! EDIT: Just watched the video, wow! I want it now! Not in 2 days! (when I go back into Aberdeen). I noticed you've even got the flaps and ailerons working, that's amazing work! I also loved the 1st person view with the camera hack, reminded me of star wars. Edited January 1, 2007 by Blades Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Picolini Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 @Blades, if I remember right, my town Elgin was named after a bible hymn or something like that. Kinda funny though, I didn't know the name had Scottish origins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol, check the comments, I bet 50 people have already asked. I'd say it's the top 5 most asked question on youtube videos with a song to them. Anywho, I believe it's "Cake - Going the Distance". Just try google searching the lyrics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
