Realistic Drone Ops Pack

REALISTIC DRONE OPERATIONS PACK
An add-on for Realistic Combat Drones (required). Formerly the Matrice 350 RTK RCD Add-on: the Matrice 350 is still here, now part of a full drone unit.

THE DRONES
- Matrice 350 RTK: heavy-lift ISR. H30T gimbal camera (zoom, thermal, night vision), S1 spotlight slaved to the camera, Normal / Sport / Tripod modes, six obstacle sensors, automatic return-to-home, hot-swap TB65 batteries, its own transport case.
- Matrice 4T: light recon with wide, zoom and thermal cameras, flown with the same RC Plus. Hard case, own batteries.
- Avata 2: ducted FPV drone for clearing buildings, flown with the FPV Remote 3 and FPV Goggles 3. Flip the goggles down and you are the drone.
- Vampire: hexacopter heavy dropper. Four mortar rounds, armed and released one by one from the RC Plus, about 8 km reach. Slow and loud. Its batteries charge in the BS65 station.

THE FOB
- Drone Pickup 4x4: deploys in seconds. Side screens with the live drone feed and a map, a slide-out rack that shows every drone case, battery station, mortar round and launch mat kept in its storage, a field generator you carry out and cable up, a built-in jammer and interceptor detector, a weather station and an awning. Arsenal cases parked next to it restock their batteries and spare parts.
- Launch pads (with a carry bag), TB65 charger and BS65 station, arsenal cases (US, USSR, FIA), every drone in its own case.

THE TEAM
- Observer tablet: a second player watches any drone's live feed.
- Map markers: each drone marks its own home point, and every target you designate is a red X you can rename on the map.
- Weather station and AES encryption module.

COUNTER-DRONE
- Jammer rifle (in the arsenal; it only locks on to enemy drones), jammer backpack and jammer vehicle.
- Interceptor drone with its own launch case. It can miss, and a fast or hard-turning pilot can escape it; the pickup warns its crew while one is in the air.
- Direction finder (US, USSR, FIA).
- Game Master: everything from the pack under Entity Browser > Filters > Drone Ops Pack, plus jammer areas, GPS denial zones, hunter drones and zone markers. Click any drone and press Delete to remove it.

ELECTRONIC WARFARE
Frequency hop, burst transmit and quiet mode on the HUD. Jamming breaks up the feed; lose the link and the drone flies home.

CONTROLS
Every control is rebindable under Realistic Drone Ops Pack in Settings > Controls, for keyboard and mouse, Xbox and PlayStation controllers.

MULTIPLAYER
Server-authoritative and built for dedicated servers. A flying drone is seen by every player at any distance. Players who join late see every drone, feed and deployed pickup as it is. Server owners get a settings file: idle drone and loose gear cleanup, a drone limit, and switches for the dropper and the interceptors.

REQUIRES: Realistic Combat Drones.
