* There is a [[Glitches|Glitch]] involving the Police Maverick in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] where once [[Niko Bellic|Niko]] gets out, the helicopter will start flying away and fall once it is realised that there is no pilot. This is because the game still reads the helicopter as AI controlled. Holding Y (Xbox 360) or Triangle (PS3) to shut off the engine will prevent this. This will no longer happen when the player goes back to the safehouse from a considerable distance away from it. | * There is a [[Glitches|Glitch]] involving the Police Maverick in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] where once [[Niko Bellic|Niko]] gets out, the helicopter will start flying away and fall once it is realised that there is no pilot.

*In GTA Vice City, AI Police Mavericks can be seen flying around without a wanted level. They are not solid and do not have any engine noise, for example, when you touch it you go right through it. They can't be destroyed. | *In GTA Vice City, AI Police Mavericks can be seen flying around without a wanted level.

These helicopters are basically a variant of the DeadDodo, as these helicopters follow the same path. Also, the red and white lights that normally appear on the DeadDodo appear in the middle of the helicopter. | ||
* The Police Maverick in GTA Vice City Stories is the first in all the GTA series (excluding GTA 1,2,and Advance)to not feature a loudspeaker. Although it has an actual pilot, no comments are ever made towards the player. | * The Police Maverick in GTA Vice City Stories is the first in all the GTA series (excluding GTA 1,2,and Advance)to not feature a loudspeaker.

*In GTA IV, it is possible to "disarm" the Police Maverick without killing both sharpshooters, which would cause the helicopter to retreat. Instead, if the player kills one of them, and then shoots the gun out of the other's hands, he will drop it and start shooting with his pistol. You can shoot this one out of his hands, but it is more difficult since it is smaller. Be sure to shoot the actual gun, and not his hands, and this will eventually kill him. Also, crouch down to increase accuracy. | *In GTA IV, it is possible to "disarm" the Police Maverick without killing both sharpshooters, which would cause the helicopter to retreat.
