20 Part Challenge

Hobby Copter

Controls
  • Throttle Power up/down engine
  • VTOL Up/Down copter control. For stable flight, VTOL up about 80 to 90% Neutral VTOL will cause the heli to drop.
  • Pitch Normal, can control foward and back movement but bounces when released.
  • Trim Use for forward flight, about 75% up trim for best foward flight
  • YAW Turn left/right, you will need to stablize it yourself with countersteering (i.e. after turning right, you might need to turn left a bit to stablize your turn).
  • Roll Doesn't roll all that much. It can strafe right/left a bit.

No VR or controls (low part count challenge), seat if for show!
Hovering is possible but quite tough. My best advice is controlling the VTOL (75-80%) and Throttle (50% ish) while using other controls for manual stability. Also, whoops I'm right at 20 parts....hope that's OKAY
