This large Gyroplane, is a design I drew last year for a design school asignment. Inspired by the Hind and the Rotodyne. It uses no modded parts. just motors
Suitable for mid altitude bombing and ground support/ anti tank roles. It flys pretty well. Use 3 to turn the tip jets on and off. and 2 to activate the main engines for plane mode. The vtol slider controls blade pitch. I find it best to shut off the rotors soon after turning the other engines on. The rudder controls the 3 r pod turrets

Awsome.
how do you fly this thing
@DeezDucks That's the huge size working for ya. In reality and in this game the bigger an aircraft is the less squirrely it is. Glad you liked it
I just had the pleasure of trying this out for the first time! Amazing so easy to handle and thats saying a lot cause I'm a downright horrible heli pilot.
I only have mobile :'(
ho god! i like that !good job man !
@Medicman11 I was going for a more Appleseed, or Ghost in the Shell Vibe. but yeah that gundam mech has a pretty similar form lanuage
@Gdc2001 Yeah, sorry about that... I made it on a gaming rig I built for cad work. So I didn't notice. I'm working on a simpler version, I'm trying to get it to work on my old phone as a test. Works fine on my current phone, too A galaxy note 5.
I don't know why but this thing (Probably the color, design and how big it is) reminds me of Big Zam. This thing is amazing regardless.
Lol, hippy style...@Trent1sz
