Fly it
| Input | What it does |
|---|---|
| Move | Strafe above the terrain. |
| Hold Jump | Climb. |
| Descend · C keyboard / B controller | Drop toward your resting hover height. |
| Release climb & descend | Hold your current altitude. |
| Utility + movement | Choose your evasive direction while aiming and firing. |
The small crosshair gauge shows airtime. Return to resting hover height to refill it and collect ground items. Extra jumps extend your climb; kills briefly pause the drain. Optional Classic altitude controls restore release-Jump-to-descend flight.
Build your loadout
| Slot | Choices |
|---|---|
| Passive | Fire Control Radar marks a strong nearby threat; gains damage, facing speed and close-range armor against it. |
| Primary | M230: balanced chain gun · XM301: sustained rotary fire · M789: slow, heavy explosive shells. |
| Secondary | Hydra-70: six-rocket ripple salvo. Your gun and rocket pods reload independently. |
| Utility | Evasive Roll: climbing roll · Smoke Backflip: rearward loop and cloak · Banked Break: sweeping 90° turn. |
| Special | Longbow: hold to paint locks, release to launch · Hellfire: hold to guide a live missile · Bombing Run: six bombs along your flight path. |
Keep firing your gun and Hydras while painting Longbow locks or shaping a bombing pass. With Hellfire, release to slow the lead missile and hold again to resume guiding it.
