I found a gyroscopic effect when I built a spinning top toy in SimplePlanes. I tried to build more stable helicopter with a gyroscopic effect.
At first, Set VTOL slider to full up for start gyroscope.
Set throttle:
takeoff 86-90%
cruise 83-85%
descent 75-80%
Front is orange side.

@zap210 No problem!
@Sarpanitu @SimpleEric Thanks for spotlighting and upvotes. This old plane has almost no effect of gyroscopes. However, when you give more power to jet engines with xml editing, This airplane will fly very stable.
