Description

An example command station for controlling the tanker NS Akkad and the IAV-8 Buccaneer aircraft remotely. Meant to be used in addons or copied into other types of command vehicles. It fits reasonably well when loaded as-is on the "Custom Base Large Boat" island (see last screenshot).

Uses a NPPC-900 nuclear power generator for long-term electricity supply:

The unlock code for both doors is 1984. The doors will remain unlocked as long as the code is entered in either the inside or outside keypads.

Radio Control

Setting up radio control works the same for both the tanker and the aircraft. Each vehicle has it’s own radios so they can be used simultaneously.

–Turn on the radios on the vehicle’s radio control panel.
–Tune in the vehicle’s transmit radio to the same frequency as the command station’s receive radio.
–Tune in the vehicle’s receive radio to the same frequency as the command station’s transmit radio.
–Flip the Radio Control switch on the vehicle’s radio control panel to control the vehicle from the command station.

When using the command stations to set waypoint coordinates and collision avoidance distance, press the "Transmit Orders" button to transmit the data back to the the vehicle. Orders are stored onboard the vehicles via this method so that the they will continue on route should radio contact be lost.
