Schweizer S300
Wikipedia:
The Schweizer S300 series (formerly Hughes 300, Schweizer 300, and Sikorsky S-300) family of light utility helicopters was originally produced by Hughes Helicopters, as a development of the Hughes 269. Later manufactured by Schweizer Aircraft, and currently produced by Schweizer RSG, the basic design has been in production for over 50 years. The single, three-bladed main rotor and piston-powered S300 is mostly used as a cost-effective platform for training and agriculture.
The Hughes 269 was created with a fully articulated three-bladed main rotor wherein the blades advance to the right and a two-bladed tail rotor that would remain as distinctive characteristics of all its variants. It also has shock absorber-damped, skid-type landing gear. The flight controls are directly linked to the control surfaces of the helicopter so there are no hydraulics in the 269. There are generally two sets of controls, although this was optional on the civil 269A. For three-seat aircraft, the middle collective control stick is removable and a seat cushion can be put in its place for the third passenger. In the 300CB and 300CBi, the collective control can be repositioned to left-handed configuration for the Pilot In Command position (right seat).

@Freerider2142 Ok, thank you thank you for your attention!
@BogdanX Ok I will try to improve the control. Thanks!
I love seeing this little heli flying IRL...
it looks like a BMX bicycle with a rotor compared to other heli's :P
very nice build, I'm modifying it for myself as a fully manual heli, similar to how it is IRL.
@PlaneFX6 All good
@Gabriel747 It will take me a few days to post the aircraft, but it will be ready before May 8th.
@Gabriel747 ok
Makes a Bell 47
