Default The Whole System

UAVs, even the smaller ones, aren't just planes, they are a "system". This includes the control terminals/shelters, launchers, landing gear and the air vehicle. In most cases, the system won't work if any of these components are missing.

It would be necessary to decide how much the system should be broken into its components. For example, the RQ7 Shadow has a static line which is basically two lines strung between two drum brakes, and it has anothe gizmo that is set up beside the landing strip that tracks and guides the plane in to land. Would each piece need to be a distinct gizmo in the game or could they be combined into a more generic landing system?
