Introducing the Protocopter 1!
After the lead engineer decided that ordinary helicopters were overrated, Clawsome industries began work on the Protocopter 1.
The Protocopter 1 can reach a top speed of 250 mph, and lift enormous weight thanks to its twin intermeshed rotors.
It’s main armament is the Boom250 slinger locates in both pilons (launch with fire weapon). It’s secondary weapon is the Razor cannon located beneath the Protocopter 1 (Trim to change elevation, fire to fire). The Razor cannon can take on any man-made craft, but is not powerful enough to take out offending bridges.
Elevation: Throttle
Yaw: Yaw
Roll: Roll
Pitch: Pitch
Rear thruster: Ag1 + VTOL
Note: yaw acts really weirdly. If anyone knows a good way to fix this without ruining the aesthetics, I would love know:)
Thanks to BlueCitrus for the no collision Props
Inspired by Lyra’s Intermeshing rotor demonstrator

@Lyra They’re xml modded so they don’t collide with each other (even when they mess up and go through each other). It might be cheating but...
Very cool and unusual design! Will make a nice addition to the Lyra fleet.
Also, what's different about "noco rotors", how do they manage to not collide?
@Clawsome Np! And yw!
@Lyra I couldn’t get the rotors to stay in sinc in flight so I ended up using BlueCitrus’s noco rotors to prevent explosions:)
@BlueCitrus Thanks so much!
