They now make rotorcraft (helicopters or helicopter drones) possible. Prior to the gyroscope, if you tried to fly a helicopter, you could take off and translate to forward flight, but good luck trying to hover, much less land in control. You'd just eventually lose control due to different effects in game. I'm not sure if it's that way in real life...I'm not a helicopter pilot, so I can't say...but I think trying to fly helis in SP was much harder than in real life; at least if it was AS difficult, I would never, in my right mind, ever get on board a helicopter...forget it! But with the gyro, makes it soooo much more controllable. Love the gyroscope!

i have found that the best way to figure out how something works is to experiment and see what it does.

One of the best ways to figure out how something works is by messing around with it. Mess around with the settings. Also try and research about it on the internet.
