A VTOL that can land on water. I don't know why I don't own this yet. Only flew it in creator when the SR update first released. I recall parking it in the Land Act reservoir.

Because Sea Sparrow can do the same for 1/2 or 1/3 of the money? Because Sea Sparrow is faster too?

 

Seriously, there is no utility in this thing, but it should not always be about utility. If you find this thing funny, go ahead. You won't be using it for anything, though, because whatever you throw at it there are better alternatives. Avenger as a flying tank, Seabrezze as a plane capable of a water landing, Sea sparrow as helicopter equipped with missiles. If you like the looks, if you like the handling, if you want to fly it and it makes you happy, don't hesitate. But if you have doubts, skip it. I purchased a Tyrus recently: overpriced, underpinning piece of crap with a lot of racing sound without actual capabilities, but I like it. I know it's not going to win me any races, but I don't race. I know Pariah is faster on the map, but I don't care. I just loved the look.

It's even useless in its own supply mission.

Tyrus was one of the fastest when it first launched, but then Rockstar f*cked all the downforce cars and never fixed this one.

^ Could not care less about cornering on the Tyrus, but with all that sound thing should go 140 at least.

So. Since there is only 1 vehicle next week that I want, I decided to pick it up. Pretty fun plane. Got the NOOSE livery. Pics to follow, I just need to buy upgrades for it.

 

 

 

 

Edit: Switched from NOOSE to Coast Guard. Shameless hangar snaps

I bought it and uh... the rotors kinda broke every time I landed it in the water. Without fail the right rotor died shortly after landing soon followed by the left. Followed by me calling Merryweather for a goddamn boat

 

Well I'm glad I didn't pay full price for it!

 

side note: this plane looks weird when the wings fall off

Did you completely miss or simply ignore the VTOL part? That allows for more precise air combat with things like Buzzards and prop planes, it allows for access to rooftops and other out of the way locations and the JATO allows for speedy take off. I actually find the Tula has utility in droves, it may be fragile but it's very useful for certain objectives.

 

Side note, I love how fast it rolls. Seems to spiral extremely fast for such a big, relatively slow and heavy plane. I'll always keep my Tula on looks alone.

exactly. Rotors won't die of you don't slam into water at full throttle everytime. This ain't seabreeze

Nah, man I flew it from Zancudo to Paleto and set it down next to the Yacht using the VTOL. Was it's maiden test flight, so i wasn't even being uncareful with it

I also later attempted landing it like Baloo from TaleSpin with similar but more violent results

I actually had the same issues during the crate missions things when I used these with VTOL. - Never get the issue if I landed like a normal seaplane though. :)

As I said, Sea sparrow will get you all of this minus space for passengers. I ignored VTOL precision because it's actually quite easy to use heli with a high precision even on keyboard, so yeah, I do believe that you can do almost anything you do with Tula using Sparrow.

Pulled the trigger on this one a few days ago. Do not regret it at all. I love flying this baby!

Bought a Tula on sale, landed it in the ocean. Now I'm just standing on top of it, waiting how to see long it'll take to drift back to shore (just off Zancudo).

Wish I could do this sort of thing in real life. It's night time, the sky is clear and it's perfectly quiet. All I can hear is the water. Beautiful!

 

There's no people whatsoever and I don't have to worry about sharks, other boats or things like that. No wonder people like to escape reality through videogames. It's too crowded IRL and there's too much stuff going on.

 

I also love these large planes. Sure, the Tula is classified as medium in the hangar but it's large in my opinion. I'm probably buying all the other large aircraft as well when they go on sale (over time) just because I like flying them. Don't think I'll ever seriously use any of them as they're typically useless without passengers manning guns and such. And even if you have those, other vehicles and weapons eliminate them with ease. But they're just fun. The main thing holding me back from going crazy if they were hypothetically to all be on sale at the same time is hangar space. I don't know how many things I can store in there and I don't want to sell anything.

 

EDIT: And I just found out that when I'm standing on top of it, using the enter vehicle button teleports me into the cockpit. Nice. I would have been fine with having to drop down and enter through the water either automatically or manually, but this is handy.

Why you'd willingly lose a post like this in the general chat thread, I don't know.

Very tempted to buy this but I know I will never ever use it. It has no practical use for a mainly Solo Player.

It's fun. Not everything needs to be useful.

Oh I agree. I have flown it before and I loved it. 

And plus I rewarded myself with a Cheetah Classic the other day.

Nows the time to get one, I just did and I'm using it every chance I get! Very deft handling, powerful guns and VTOL makes bombing a breeze. Lots of fun for missions and very satisfying to just kill the engines in midair then glide on down to a soft landing in the water to watch the sunset - chicks dig it.

Don't. Just get the thing if you have cash, it's fun to fly and you can use it for diving, why not.
