Homemade Helicopter

3,340 XXXICCCXXXVII  7.1 years ago

Powered by a modified 3Rotor from Mazda's RX series, this helicopter can lift, but won't stay in the sky for long. The fun doesn't stop there, however!! This homemade helicopter is basically a deathtrap to anyone in or near to the helicopter itself!

To fly, deactivate AG-8 and then slide the VTOL slider up. After that, throttle up.
Pitch will allow you to move back and fowards, while roll will allow you to spin this deathtrap.

In all seriousness though, can someone please help me with the stability issues? -- it's my first attempt in making a helicopter...

    Try putting a negative weight near the top, it will make the CoM way low, making it stable-r
