AH-2A Draken

522 PositiveAnion  8.6 years ago

A very fun little attack helicopter. I had a ton of fun building it.
Group 1 and VTOL slider for cruise engines, and Group 2 to turn on the lights.

Please leave a like if you like it!

Full tank hover is at about 36-40% throttle. I advise pitching down quite a bit when taking off, since it has conventional landing gear, like the Apache.

When landing, just make sure you aren't moving sideways, and try to come down pretty slow.

With the secondary cruising jet engines, I can this helo up to over 200 mph, which is about 50 mph better than the AH1A. However, the fuel capacity sucks.
