Navy Helicopter Challenge Entry: Wahoo12

The Sikorsky SH-3 Sea King (company designation S-61) is an American twin-engined anti-submarine warfare (ASW) helicopter designed and built by Sikorsky Aircraft. A landmark design, it was the world's first amphibious helicopter and one of the first ASW rotorcraft to use turboshaft engines.

Controls:
Throttle: Main prop Propulsion (Rear is thottled)
Yaw: left/right turning
Roll: sway left/right (best used in conjunction with yaw as with most helis)
Pitch: Forward/Back movement + Main prop control

Standard wsad, thottle and brake controls. Trim can adjust main prop for lift AND drag (careful during landing, if on drag you will drop fast).
Trim can be very useful for landing instead of dropping throttle, or combined.

Steadys at about 5 degrees up bubble (wanted 0 but works great).

Since it is an amphibious heli, yes it DOES actually go in water quite well! Designed for land and sea just as the real one :)

Hope you like! It is my first helicopter attempt for actual flight.
