A Boeing CH-47D Chinook helicopter model in simpleplanes with Advanced digital flight control, DIY Rotor and basic cockpit.
Interestingly, its DIY rotor purely uses the energy from rotator and IT CONSUMES NO FUEL.

For its digital flight controlled version using system-ordunary rotor but have no phase synchronization, refer to:
https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/nc6Y32/Boeing-CH-47D-helicopter-with-digital-flight-control-system-and-automatic-hover-c

Due to the maximum speed of rotor being limited, I have to adjust its rotation speed from original 4 rounds per second for original CH47 to only 2 rounds per second for this DIY rotor CH47.

General Instructions:
AG 1 Automatic hover
AG 2 Automatic altitude holder
AG 3 Open door
AG 4 mechanical flight control system backup When digital fcs off This mode is more difficult to fly
AG 5 Half automatic Landing Low-speed precise Altitude holder use trim to adjust altitude
AG 6 High speed dive mode - Used for extreme circumstances flight Somehow dangerous and be aware to use that
AG 7 Hover point adjust mode using roll and pitch
AG 8 Start Engines and rotor control

Maximum hover ceiling 3650m.
Maximum service ceiling 4500m.
Maximum ceiling 4800m.
Maximum speed and maximum cruise speed 120-160kmph.

To protect the rotor from damage, please take VTOL TO THE MAXIMUM 10 SECONDS and 0 percent throttle AFTER AG8 to start engines, then VTOL 0 and increase throttle for takeoff.
WARNING This model should not run on low physics.

It has ability to takeoff and Landing from water.

Maximum speed: 140-160kmph because of slower rotation speed of main rotor.
Service ceiling: 4500m altitude.

    @Oliverzarmy This is a better version of CH47 simpleplanes model with digital flight control system and no fuel consumption. Its operation is much easier than mechanical flight control system version.
