Auto Credit Based on Verdnan's Flyable Swashplate (Development Only)

This thing runs at 1fps on my phone, so its largely untested. The upper rotor can be removed to make this a single rotor swash which I know flies. I can get this off the ground and it seems to follow input but I cant be sure. Even if its impractical its still an interesting model I feel. Let me know how it works and feel free to improve.

    @Verdnan yeah, and it works great too! a little touchy on the rudder, but it works great in terms of doing its job
