Yep this grappling hook is magnetic. It should be more usable for recovery work. Uses the landing gear auto-locking feature introduced in version 01.035 as well as the electricity and control via rotors introduced in version 01.036.

Shoutout to plaYer2k for the neat Small Stator/Large Rotor merge trick. You can read about it here: http://forums.keenswh.com/post/merging-rotor-blocks-6825408?&trail=30

When you load the game the winch is locked down. To launch the grapplers, follow the instruction below:

1. Grappler Arm - OFF 2. Winch Brake - UNLOCK (Don't turn it off) 3. Grappler Accelerator - ON 4. Press P to launch both grapplers, or manually launch them by UNLOCKing their respective controls, marked as "Grappler (Port)" and "Grappler (Starboard)".
