Solo Helicopter Rappel


Introducing the ultimate solo rappel experience. With this script, you can now rappel with ease—no crew required. Just press the rappel button, and voilà: you’ll be effortlessly transferred to the back seat while an NPC pilot takes control, maintaining perfect altitude. Your rappel journey begins automatically.

Once you’ve completed your descent, the NPC pilot will expertly land the helicopter before mysteriously vanishing. Ready for round two? Simply take the controls and dive back into the action!

:warning:PLEASE NOTE - This script is set to only work for helicopters that support the rappel feature by default in GTA. If you are in an unsupported helicopter you will be notified.

passanger is unable to rappel says npc pilot is not ready after the first person rappels would also be cool if the heli could fly off into the distance and despawn ect as an option

Oops sorry about that, I will look into the passenger bug! I will also work on adding an option in the config file to have the helicopter either land or fly away depending on what you choose. Thanks for the suggestion. :+1:

New version was released, Config file now allows you to choose if you want the helicopter to either land or fly away. Passenger rappel bug is still being worked on!

is there a way to keep the pilot flying instead of landing? I want to rappel down and rapper back up, is that possible or no
?

I can make it so you could choose to keep the pilot flying instead of landing or flying away in the config file. However there is no function to rappel back up into the chopper in the game, I won’t say it’s impossible as I could probably use a combination of some crude animations/teleport code to make it appear like you rappel back up but not sure if I can keep the rope extended as the game retracts it back up shortly after the rappel animation has finished.

Ah ok, i wanted to use it for rescue missions, using ERS and there are mountain rescue missions and wanted to grap the npc and go back up in the rappeler. I’ll probably still get it for raid missions but if you can make it where you can make the pilot fly away Ill 100% buy it

Yes I have added the ability to make the pilot fly away in v1.0.1, which can be changed in the config file. :+1:
