Controls: AVG 8 to turn off gyroscope, which is required when in helicopter mode. VTOL to VTOL (do not attempt to VTOL backwards).

I would love to see someone make a better version of this.

Description (Aviastar):Bell had worked on the Tilt Rotor concept since the late 1940s. They came to believe that the idea not only was practicable, but also was well within the existing state-of-the-art. In August 1950, the Air Force and Army announced an official Tilt Rotor design competition. Bell's proposal for their Model 200 won the competition for the XV-3 (originally designated the XH-33), and Bell was awarded a contract in May 1951. The XV-3 was built and initially flight tested at Bell's Ft. Worth, Texas, facility. Two prototypes were built, carrying tail numbers 4147 and 4148.
