Dragonfly 220 (Gyro Off)

Auto Credit Based on Freerider2142's Dragonfly 200 Gyro Off

Same as my original Dragonfly 200, but this is an update by @Freerider2142 for the "GYRO OFF" flying characteristics

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.’’
