Apache AH-64

72.1k Authros  8.5 years ago

I proudly present to you the Apache AH-64 attack helicopter. Much credit goes to @KevinMurphy for his technical input in the flying characteristics and general all round advice on making it what it is now. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I have flying and building it. Activators 1 through 6 are for the missile pods, VTOL controls the angle and tilt of the optics/M230 gun. Brake inverts the prop blades which is good for making quick dives, or more importantly stoping the helicopter rocking just after landing.

    Gonna slap a gyro on top and see how it works! Nice build, by the way.

    Any reason why there isn't any armament?

    Hm, sorry then. I was looking for a good Apache build, and came across this. Nothing personal, just simple criticism. But it does get off better with a gyro on top @Authros

    Bit harsh really. It’s a 2.4 year old build way before the gyro was introduced to the game. At the time it worked very well, so I can only assume you’re not used to handling a helicopter that requires some amount of using the joystick. @SSPanther

    @MAUS08 It’s not you, it’s the helicopter. It sucks at balance and therefore had to add my own gyroscope on top. Even then it still sucked because the weight was thrown off

    Oh heck yes it is! The more ordinance you put and the farther out, it gets real touchy to roll. Just makes better manouvers! @Authros

    @realluochen9999 Feel free to borrow them. I suggest after you take them off, add a wing peice to the top before adding them back on to your own build. Only a tip really as i noticed that when i take them off they're really hard to put back on right without getting 1 or more of the rockets stuck.
