Auto Credit Based on RadarJamJar's Eurocopter Tiger
This chopper is fully manual.
Credit to Visify for the piston engine and RadarJamJar for the Swashplate and rotors.
- VTOL up to start the rotors.
IMPORTANT - make sure they rotate in the right direction. Nudge up a little and then all the way up.
- Throttle to produce lift (20 to 30% to take off from water).
- TRIM will adjust the rear rotor to steer and fine tune.
- Pitch and Roll for Pitch and Roll.
Other notes:
- Approx. 40 to 50% lift for cruising.
- Use small movements at first.
- This does have a gyro for stability, AG8 to turn off.
- Use 10% lift for landing.
Enjoy

Possible to create mobile friendly version? I tried to use this with my iPad Air 1 and it lagged like hell. Otherwise very cool build!
Thanks right, thanks
@Notvarysimpleplanes
@MI @MI no but it is similar but its not based of a real helicopter they just look the same
@SpiritusRaptor cool
I think so @MI
I wish, still working on that @vincentwwwwww
That is awesome but at least make it easier to start :)
Also I might get a actual pilots license before I get my drivers license lol #BECAUSE AMERICA @SpiritusRaptor
Well I really like your expirements with the unique ideas and concepts I guess that's what sets you apart from others@SpiritusRaptor
Hehehe, just so not true, but thanks for the compliment!... there are many many players who are far better, or at keast at a similar level... @AttestedArk
I've always wanted to ask you, how w do you feel being the most famous player on SimplePlanes because everyone on this site is just an average joe so it's not like your a super star so how does it feel?@SpiritusRaptor
All good. Try a seach for jundroo... its there, but it can be in slighlty different locations @SweptBackWing14
I don't know if it is a computing fault on my end, but thank you for taking the time to help me. @SpiritusRaptor
Yup, I have tried this. My Application Support does not have a file by that name. @SpiritusRaptor
@SweptBackWing14 Here is the path
Mac HD/Users/[USER NAME]/Library/Application Support/unity.Jundroo.SimplePlanes/mods
Ok. So plugins is a no go? @SpiritusRaptor
I'll find the path and post it... its buried deep in the user file. It will end in simpleplanes/mods/ @SweptBackWing14
I found a folder that says plugins, this might be it, I don't want to accidentally break the game. (nothing says mods) @SpiritusRaptor
