Grand Theft Auto Online has many different types of vehicles with which you can cause chaos. The Cargobob is a military helicopter for transporting troops and cargo in which you can transport up to 10 other players. It also has a very fun feature that lets you attach yourself to cars and other objects, allowing you to fly away with other players’ cars or tactically invite friends into a battle. However, the Cargobob can be a little hard to find in online free roam if you don’t know where to look. This guide will show you where to find a Cargobob in Los Santos and how to use its retractable hook.

Buy a Cargobob
The Cargobob was made available for purchase as part of the Finance and Felony update. Open your mobile phone or use a computer to access the in-game internet. Go to the Warstock Cache and Carry website to purchase a Cargobob. The Cargobob Jetsam is another model with a different paint job. Click Buy It Now to secure one. Both models can be quite expensive for new players.
- Cargobob: 1,790,000 USD
- Cargobob Jetsam: $1,995,000
Once you have purchased a plane, you need to request it to be able to fly it. Open your phone and call Pegasus in contacts. Select the Cargobob and it will be delivered to the nearest airfield/helipad. Look for the golden yellow symbol for private aircraft on the map to find it.
Where can I find a Cargobob?
Once you have reached at least level 22 in Grand Theft Auto OnlineThe Cargobob can appear randomly on helipads throughout Los Santos. The most likely place to find one is the Los Santos Naval Port, a dock in the middle harbor area of Elysian Island. You must make your way through the warehouse guarded by Merryweather or the dock from the sea side.
The Cargobob spawns right next to the storage area at the end of the dock. You’ll likely have to fight armed guards either way. If the Cargobob doesn’t spawn, you can leave the immediate area and return to engage the helicopters.
How to use the Cargobob
Press right on the D-Pad or E on the keyboard to activate the hook. Gently hover over the vehicle you want to pick up and touch it with the hook. It should automatically click into place and you can lift the object. Once you’ve deployed the hook, it can’t be retracted. Press the button again to drop what you’re holding.
