A Cargo Aircraft capable of long range flights and consuming minimal fuel. It's large cargo bay can carry a large amount of cargo and it is capable of vertical takeoff. The Cargo Gyro is inspired by Gyrocopters and the Gyrodyne, featuing twin counter rotating helicopter blades that can generate lift when the aircraft is in forward motion. In addition to this it can breifly use these blades for vertical takeoff (2 by default) by shifting power to them. THe aircraft is capable of taking off like a traditional fixed wing aircraft and can take off and land on short unpaved runways. Landing is extremely simple only requiring the propellors to be turned off and the aircraft kept upright until touchdown. CONTROLS 1-Primary propellers 2-Helicoptor rotor power 7-Cable hook 8-Lights
