Tandeem-Helicopter TEST [HELP] [WIP]
Ultimate test version of a random tandeem helicopter. do NOT work as expected.
WHY DOES IT NOT WORK?
Blaming Simpleplanes physics ...
Well actually it's not the physic to blame. If I have both rotors in perfect coordinate (same lift, same size, same power) it will stay still.
But this doesn't make sense, right?
Because you see, the CH-47 Chinook (just an example here) does NOT turn on itself even when it have propeller pitch adjustment independent of the rotors ...
Which does not make sense either.
The rotor on Chinook is linked together to a common engine, so you have fixed speed of propellers and different pitch which SHOULD give you different yaw power ... but I guess that can be offset by tilting the rotors slightly away from the rotation.
Controls:
Throttle for throttle.
That winch is locked (and therefore won't move)
TRIM for front propeller pitch, VTOL for the one on the back.
