Use for whatever you wish, just give me some credit. To save as a subassembly successfully, pull off the rotor from the base piece(purple block at bottom of rotor). Throttle to prepare rotor blades, AG1 to start them spinning. Pitch and Roll to maneuver with swash plate.

NOTE**: This will not fly properly until you place it on a properly balanced craft(right now it will tip forward continuously, because the COG is too far forward). If you want a demo to how it works, arrange to 4 VTOL engine around the purple block symmetrically
