FunSeries OH-3 Dragonfly

245k EternalDarkness  4.7 years ago
Auto Credit Based on FairFireFlight's Hover AutoPilot

This is a fairly simple build, good for practicing helicopter flying on SP. I was trying to make it for my main M.Corp series, but I don't feel like remaking most of the body, so here it is. It's easy to control unless you're using a keyboard, and you'll have loads of fun gunning down convoys and landing on ships. To assist you on landings, there's FairFireFight's auto-hover system (check predecessor) that you can engage by activating group one at speed lower than 80km/h.

Controls:

  • Pitch & Roll => Cyclic;
  • Yaw => Tail rotor;
  • Throttle => Collective;
  • AG1 => Auto-hover;
  • AG8 => Nav lights.

Enjoy

    @EternalDarkness The rotor system is great, may I use it?

    @Jerba trial and error. It took quite a few attempts to get this one to look right, even more to get it to fly.

    Do you have any tips on designing helicopters? I literally cannot build anything decently. I’m trying to make a helicopter and I just can’t make the thing look decent

    @Homemade I'm not sure who issued a ban, but it was for repeatedly bypassing successor system.

    @Altmztrn no. When listing things, that's how you're supposed to end every line. Just proper grammar.

    @EternalDarkness Thank you for responding my question. The help is very much appreciated. Very useful information. I shall use it on my future helicopter creations.

    @Voskhod you need to dig into main rotor codes (last tab in Overload when you select helicopter main rotor) and turn off all torques. Sliding sideways is caused by the tail rotor countering the torque of the main rotor and thus producing sideways thrust.

    Very nice helicopter. I would like to learn too how to make perfect helicopter without bugs. Mine moves to the right automatically but I do not know the root of problem. I would like some advice.

    @CookieCrumz dunno. What's the problem with it?

    @BogdanX thanks, though windows are precisely the reason this is FunSeries and not M.Corp. I couldn't get them better without remaking the entire upper fuselage. I wanted them not to go as high, and to have an option to panel the corners more smoothly. Do you like how it flies? That's the number one on this thing.
