- On the ground, open the radio menu with #.
- In the air, open it with Alt+#.
- Press F10 to select Other.
- Choose
Tycoonfor general actions orCargofor internal crate handling.
Key bindings may differ when a DCS control profile has been changed.

Smoke appears roughly 120 metres to the right of the approach. Fire flare launches a red signal flare directly from the selected site and can be requested again after 30 seconds.
Drop illumination bomb lights up the selected site at night: the bomb ignites 1000 metres above the site's ground level (never above your own aircraft) and slowly descends. It can be requested again after 5 minutes.

Cargo
After opening the radio menu and selecting F10 Other, use the top-level Cargo entry whenever a Torque Tycoon crate moves between the ground and the aircraft's internal cargo hold. DCS's built-in rearm/reload and cargo-loading menus do not recognize Tycoon crates. Slingloads use the helicopter's cargo hook and are detected separately.
