Scout S-9 Sheep

Auto Credit Based on jamesPLANESii's Scout S-9 Sheep

Hello guys! This is my first helicopter! It is based on the second model in the lego set 8068. It took to make this thing fly properly. Even longer than it took to build it!
Throttle is engine RPM (Keep that on full at all times when flying), VTOL is rotor pitch. When decending quickly, turn the propeller pitch down slightly because going flat out at speeds of over 115mph can lead to faulty physics and you need quite a lot of altitude to stop what happens. (You'll see.)
Credit to BaconAircraft for helping me with a bunch of stuff and building the origional swash plate, and credit to Toscio56 for the rotor that is currently on it. Enjoy!

    I cough stole cough the rotor from Tocio56, but I still had to make a few adjustments. BTW I tend to adjust thevflight while I’m building. @enzoBoeing757

    I have used a build you did on two separate occasions and you did not receive any " successor" points, so I am here to settle the score with some upvotes. I follow you and really like your builds.
