I need some help, why does the the helicopter rolls sideways while I pitch up/down? And Yaw is not very manuverable. How can I solve this problem

    @QingyuZhou I did a similar thing... however I tested many many swashplates and just could find one that worked the way i wanted... Anyways after all those tests I picked some of the things that did work and made this!

    Just saw this.... a couple of things to try in addition to the below... With respect the blades, you can minimise the effect of rotation by only having this tips of the blades with wing physics enabled.. so you will get lift, and minimise effects of rotation. Otherwise I thinks its balance, aerodynamics at different speeds (ie. things change as you get faster). Also use of gyros, if using more than 1 then you can optimize a control setting ie. yaw, and having each gyro exerting a different amount of power in different directions etc.

    Most of the above I think you know already going by the Huey (that did fly super well), and I think for choppers there is just more time needed tweaking all of the variables!

    Good luck and hope this helps also.

    Maybe because the Huey had an even amount of blades? Idk but that might be it @QingyuZhou

    Ok, I'll go for it. My UH-1 huey has wings in the rotors as well but that worked perfectly.
