Thanks. Given up on helicopters. Moved onto mechs.
Look at the ones I made. they work perfectly and all with stock parts. You can use the rotators set to free spin for the center pivot. then use more rotators to control blade pitch. For the blades just use wings. I also used some to tilt the rotor left to right and back to front. to mimic the swash plate on a real one. to power the rotors just put jets on the blade tips. It's important to have at least two rotors and have them spin in opposite directions to keep it from spining
From my past experience, maybe pretend helicopters don't exist. It's a good attempt for a new user (I think, but I can't use it (beta)), but helicopters are a pain.
