Surprisingly stable copter

Auto Credit Based on Jundroo's Gator 2

As an FT lover, I tried my best to make planes with rotators. This modified Gator relies only on two counter-rotating rotors to maneuver. It is suggested to keep Throttle at either 0 or 100%. Also, VTOL up for collective pitch (halfway is usually enough), Trim up to balance self-rotation (still trying to figure out an automation by code). VTOL down to move on the ground.

P.S. The blade control function is not my original creation, but after extensive search I still could not find that user. Sorry! I modified the input method to make the control more stable.
