The Mil Mi-26 (NATO reporting name: Halo) is a Soviet/Russian heavy transport helicopter.
Its product code is Izdeliye 90. Operated by both military and civilian operators, it is the largest and most powerful helicopter to have gone into serial production.

Following the incomplete development of the heavier Mil Mi-12 (prototypes known as Mil V-12) in the early 1970s, work began on a new heavy-lift helicopter, designated as the Izdeliye 90 ("Project 90") and later allocated designation Mi-26. The new design was required to have an empty weight less than half its maximum takeoff weight. The helicopter was designed by Marat Tishchenko, protégé of Mikhail Mil, founder of the OKB-329 design bureau.

The Mi-26 was designed to replace earlier Mi-6 and Mi-12 heavy lift helicopters and act as a heavy-lift helicopter for military and civil use, having twice the cabin space and payload of the Mi-6, then the world's largest and fastest production helicopter. The primary purpose of the Mi-26 was to transport military equipment such as 13-tonne (29,000 lb) amphibious armored personnel carriers and mobile ballistic missiles to remote locations after delivery by military transport aircraft such as the Antonov An-22 or Ilyushin Il-76.

The first Mi-26 flew on 14 December 1977 and the first production aircraft was rolled out on 4 October 1980. Development was completed in 1983 and by 1985, the Mi-26 was in Soviet military and commercial service.

Throttle to 90% to turn on the engine

Yaw to turn.

VTOL to go up or down.

AG1 to open the Ramp

AG2 to turn on stabalizer, since i even had a hard time landing it, but if you're a gigachad not like me and you know how to land, congrats.

The landing lights must be pushed or pressed manually to enable it.

The switches in the back are for design purposes and as i mentioned "Shenanigans" you can literally play with it :b

    @JakeTheAviationTeen perhaps that's a problem in the front landing gear. I'm gonna fix that small problem later.

    Honestly, I’m quite suprised with how good it looks and I have few request for your further consideration. Tweak the rotor for better flight, more attractive paintjob and add more details. Nice job.
