This helipad was designed as an addon for the s&w Sentinel FRC (at least version 1.1 - older versions of the FRC don't support all HUD commands).
Addon for:
https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/USCG-Sentinel-Class-Cutter/8263144
The helipad also includes a light circle which can be switched on and off by using the HUD which will be deliverd with the helipad. Those light is a glow effect, not sl light. So it does not bother like face lights and doesnt shine threw prims. You can change the color of the linked object of this ring of lights.
You will be able to rezz up to 6 of your helicopter's on top of the helipad by activating the rezzer by using the HUD (a copy of your heli's need to be in the inventory of the linked object with the name "-VDF- Helipad platform (for Fast Response Cutter)").
This product will be delivered WITHOUT HELICOPTER.
Land impact: 7.6
Physic weight: 8.2
Faces: 8
Updates:
Version 1.1 - improvements on all scripts (HUD, helipad, heli eraser) to reduce memory usage.
Version 1.11 - bug fix at the HUD where the button for rezzing the helicopter nr. 6 didnt work.
Land impact count is based on the helipad without the mesh cube to center the helipad to the ship.
Objects are mod/copy - no trans
Scripts are copy only - no mod/no trans
It is necessary that you set physics to none for the linked object "rear winch" (you find this at the back of the cutter, left above the rib if you look from behind).
The physic weight of the ship will be too high and it wont move if you dont do this!
Update Info about physic settings:
At least since the USCG Sentinel Class Cutter Version 1.11 is available, the physics settings shouldnt need to be changed anymore, this is already done by s&w. If you are not sure you better check or contact me and i will take a look at your boat as soon as possible.
Reviews and recommendations are appreciated.

Really worth the lindens and time.
This is such an improvement to the original helipad. The hud is also usable in ship operations as well as helipad operations. One piece of advice: Read the note card fully. Installation is not really a big deal if you do that. Thanks Patrick for a great product.
