Transport Troops with a Helicopter using Waypoints and a Trigger in Arma 3

In this Arma 3 tutorial, I’ll show you how to set up a simple Chinook helicopter troop transport using editor waypoints and a Radio trigger. The setup allows an infantry squad to board the helicopter at a base, have the helicopter wait with engines off, and then only take off when you call it in through the radio menu. Once called, the Chinook flies to the landing zone, lands, unloads the troops, the squad moves to a Seek and Destroy waypoint, and the helicopter returns to base, lands, and shuts down. This is a simple waypoint based setup, good for mission makers who want a basic helicopter reinforcement system without needing a full script.
