Real Coaxial Helicopter

5,521 Verdnan  9.0 years ago

This is a demo build that I made for my swash-plate, that I changed to take advantage of the breakthrough joshuaW made. All credit to him for his original design that this is based on. This helicopter uses a 4x4 blade coaxial system with a frictionless swash-plate. It also features a crude cockpit. The VTOL nozzles are modded to remain pitch neutral. And I used a modded fuel tank by Nickasaurus, to get actual flight time. The VTOL engine is modded to output 22x power.

Vtol up for power, Throttle for collective.
