I added NO FT codes or Variables.
can be completely flow Gyro-Off.
Changes:
-Added 12° of Roll & Pitch to Both rotors.
-Moved Rotors engine mass backwards for more stability.
-Added Yaw control using Coaxial torque, Collective Alt added on both rotors.
-Rotor Pitch and Yaw activate when Gyor is off (AG-8 off)
-Corrected Pitch for empennage as it was reversed in forward flight.
-Activate1 now controls throttle as well, so AG1 start both the engine and rotors.
-Throttle controls Collective, That's because Helicopters don't have Negative collective. (only RC helicopters do)
The activate 1 and throttle changes are not necessary for no gyro flight, it's just easier with my setup.
Need to pay more attention and control the heli with Gyro Off.
Gyro On is basically the same as the original, with less nose down.

@Freerider2142 well, thank you so much.
@WinsWings It's your helicopter, so I think you should upload it if you want :)
just make sure to edit the XML, so it's a successor to your Original.
I just wanted to test if it's possible to make it Gyro-Off capable, and I'm happy you enjoy it.
One more change I recommend after flying this for a bit is the skids themselves (not the struts), change their width from 5 to 5.5
that will decrease the nose up when landing with gyro off, and isn't that noticeable.
cheers :)
@Freerider2142 may I post it? I would like to credit to you - or you can post it from your account.
@Freerider2142 this is a nobel update - a lot to learn from you. Thank you so much. Also, it flies very well and more enjoyable for me
@WinsWings
let me know what you think of this pls :)
Yaw without gyro will roll the helicopter a bit, but can be corrected with Roll.
