• The helicopter will hover in place when giving no inputs to the flight controls.
  
• When attempting to hover in place in high winds, ALWAYS point the nose of the helicopter INTO the wind. This allows the helicopter to hold position even in 100% wind, and allows you to use the winch safely. DO NOT ATTEMPT to point the helicopter WITH the wind while attempting to hover in place in high winds.
  
• All units are in metric. km/h, meters, etc.

The Goshawk-SAR has a system that allows the user, even when playing solo, to exit and enter the helicopter safely from the guiding harness.

How to use the winch & guiding harness

1. Get into the guiding harness and winch yourself down.
   
   
2. Place the casualty in the survivor harness.
   
   
3. Get into the guiding harness and winch yourself back up until you can reach the small winch, the equipment inventory containing rope, and the rope anchor on the harnesses, like in this screenshot. If you cannot reach the small winch and/or the rope, try playing around with the winch up/down until you can. If you really can’t manage to get yourself into this position, you can always get out of the harness as you would in any other helicopter. Avoid this if you can though, because it is risky.
   
   
   
4. Equip the rope. If the large slot in your inventory is already full, you can place the item that is already in your inventory in the large equipment slot next to the rope.
   
   
5. Connect the rope to the rope anchor and the small winch.
   
   
6. Winch yourself all the way up with the MEDIUM WINCH above you. This is the same winch you used to winch yourself down to your target and back up to the helicopter, NOT the small winch.
   
   
7. Gently pull yourself into the cabin with the small winch. When you feel that the small winch is not pulling you in any further, stop pulling.
   
   
8. You should now be in a position similar to the one in the screenshot below.
   
   
   
9. Now, simply get out of the harness while walking into the cabin.
   
   
10. Place the casualty into one of the seats and DISCONNECT THE ROPE FROM THE SMALL WINCH. Put the rope back into the equipment inventory.

You can skip this process and attempt to get into the cabin directly from the guiding harness. This is, however, very risky. It is HIGHLY recommended that you follow the steps above.
