Just wanted to say that I discovered the way to create a no-gyro, no-funky trees(it can fly without ft but i used one ft input on rudder to make it a bit more stable on yaw(and it almost doesnt work lol)) & no-xml heli with decent flight model and I want to share it to you!

On takeoff propeller pitch to 10-15% (50-75% Trim up) & no control inputs until gaining some speed & altitude. Don't forget to operate Trim in flight. More propeller pitch = more thrust gain, but less maneuverability and Yaw stability. Optimal pitch in-flight ~12-15% (60-75% Trim up)
