Detach 1 before flying. Hover, pitch, roll, and yaw just like a real helicoptor! It will start to take off around 80% throttle. Sometimes it will break, rotors may fly off, but it very rarely happens. Just restart if it does. I have yet to see a helicopter on simple planes that actually uses the pitch of the rotors to create lift, so here it is!

5,521 VerdnanLifts off and then goes out of control moments later. I like how you tied rotor pitch to the throttle instead of vtol.9.7 years ago

50.4k StingrayI know how hard these are to implement, and you model at least gets airborn! (Note I recently posted a "Fixed H-3F Pelican" that uses variable lift from counter-rotating blades. To get it under control I went with RCS stabilizers since Rear propellers never worked out.)9.7 years ago
