AH 61 "Pigeon"

32.3k CRJ900Pilot  7.4 years ago

A small and quite fast helicopter that I made with the new gyroscopes. Story: It is during the Vietnam War and the U.S. needed more helicopters that they could produce easily and in great numbers. They then came up with the AH 61 "Pigeon."

Features:
-Rocket Pods
-Mini Gun Pods
-Two Wing Tip Mounted Inferno Missles.

Controls:
-Throttle : Up/Down
-Yaw : Yaw
-Pitch : Pitch
-Roll : Roll

Procedure:
Takeoff at 28-30% and keep it that way the whole flight. VTOL up makes it go faster fowards. To land come in at 25-27% and make it soft. Please enjoy this helicopter as it took me a while. ENJOY!
