Fun helicopter to learn gyroscopes

118 An00bis  7.4 years ago

This is a simple helicopter I made. I made this as a simple thing to help me learn how to use gyroscopes. The gyroscope is easily accesible so it is easy to make changes if you want an easy way to learn gyroscopes. It is fun to fly and can hover at 29% throttle. At 100% it lifts fast and flies quick.
