The Piasecki X-49 "SpeedHawk" is a four-bladed, twin-engined, experimental compound helicopter based on the airframe of a Sikorsky YSH-60F Seahawk, but utilizes Piasecki's proprietary vectored thrust ducted propeller (VTDP) design and includes the addition of lifting wings.
For take off, group 2 and vtol slightly up. Max throttle and quick pitch up. After controlling the initial slow speed roll you should be flying like dream.
