Nice!
Shouldn't the props be connected to throttle and tip jets to an action group? The rotor is unpowered in flight, so bit would make sense to be able to turn it off.
This is a really accurate re-creation! I do have one question tho: how do you fly it?
EDIT: Scratch that, I figured it out.
Thanks! @ZZking
Looks awesome!
