How to Find Hammerhead Choppa Locations in Fortnite
Fortnite’s new update is here, and Epic Games added a new transportation mode, which is the very sturdy-looking Hammerhead Choppa. These helicopters can actually carry your whole squad plus an NPC. However, there are only five guaranteed ones on the map for each session, so you need to know where to look. Here is how to find Hammerhead Choppa locations in Fortnite.
Hammerhead Choppas have pretty predictable spawn spots in the game. You will find them atOXR locationsaround the island. Here arethe spots that you need to go to:
you’re able to count on finding Hammerhead Choppas at these four main spots (circle logo on the map):
Besides the guaranteed spots, there are three other locations where Choppas might show up. These aren’t 100% reliable, but they’re worth checking if the main spots are taken. We marked it with the square logo.
When you’re hunting for these helicopters, don’t just look on the ground. The guaranteed ones spawn on helipads. If you see an empty helipad, that means someone else already grabbed that Choppa. The random spawns are different, though. These ones just sit on the grass wherever they decide to appear.
How to Fly the Hammerhead Choppa
Once you find one, flying the helicopter is pretty easy. Here are the control buttons you need to know:
You can even switch seats. When you press the button to switch, you will hop out onto the side rails. The Choppa will hover by itself for about 15 seconds, so you will have time to shoot at enemies below (which is a huge advantage). This is great for solo players who need to complete those weekly challenges like hitting opponents beyond 50 meters.
If you’re playing with your squad, remember that the Hammerhead Choppa fits five players total. One pilot and three passengers, plus oneNPCwho can shoot theirweaponsfrom above.
So those are all the spots to find Hammerhead Choppa locations in Fortnite. These helicopters bring back the fun of aerial combat to Fortnite. They’re not overpowered, so you still need good aiming skill and strategy. When you find Hammerhead Choppa early in the match, use it to rotate quickly, complete challenges, or just have fun flying around the island!
