The most compact swash plate I've yet made. Fully featured with both Pitch and Roll Trim. VTOL bar for pitch, TRIM bar for roll. Set up to spin in a clockwise direction when looking from above, so take that into account when building your helicopter or other prop related vehicle. See my super pack for a left-hand version.

did you hack the part count or something
@NumNumz Hello, is there a video or smth on how to clip everything in one piece to bueld a swash plate. I know how everything works in real life, but this game is a different story. Thanks!
@RedstoneAeroAviation just use pitch and roll inputs to control, vtol and trim bar are just for trimming the input
@NumNumz if we used it do we need to credit you? And also how to make the blades tilt if the VTOL controls are assigned? Or the pitch you mean is by levetate up?
@RedstoneAeroAviation I'm not really sure what you are asking.
@NumNumz no credit?
@TuckerAeronauticalLabs Thx!
Dude, this is really cool.
@NumNumz thanks
@tobyrowty anyone is allowed to use this.
can i please use this part to make my helicopter
@BoxGlow I do not suggest editing any of the rotators, you may break it, especially if you alter the wrong rotator, and this design might not work with an infinite rotator either.
@BoxGlow By itself this thing is unpowered, its simply a swash plate for you to attach fins to(on the four grey fuselage pieces sticking outwards at the top). You should put some VTOL vents inside the fins, and power the vents with a VTOL engine. Check out my SUPER PACK here for some ready made helicopter fins that already have vents imbedded inside them, as well as props using this swashplate that are already assembled(just add a VTOL engine), there is a right and left hand version on there too.
No problem
@NumNumzNice! I was waiting for someone to upload something like this
I dont understand how this works (mainly because I didnt make it and its all nudged together) but how do I power this to I need to add VTOL nozzles or I just edit the rotation of the rotator at the bottom?
@CL4TRP np
@NumNumz thanks for the info
@Cailean Thx!
@CL4TRP It would completely break, you cant mirror stuff like this, not until the mirror feature actually takes into account how the parts are connected. Currently it just mirrors the location and rotation, then attaches them according to what parts they are in contact with, which means stuff like this will just fuse into one big clump, or maybe even explode.
Awesome dude. @NumNumz
What would happen if it was mirrored?
