Copter

26.9k Sunnyskies  8.6 years ago

This small helicopter is about as small a helicopter as I could manage to build. Use 100% throttle to climb, and 95% throttle to hover. Use pitch and roll to orient the entire copter in the direction you want to go. Try to avoid falling into a pilot-induced-oscillation, as you will quickly lose altitude too quickly to recover. It has a single minigun also.
