H-60 Blackhawk family tree (2024)
I present to you, the H-60 family tree. After agonizing analysis of the real aircraft and diagrams, I’ve completed redone the airframe into a completely circular look.
I want to thank faLLin1 and Snargles for talking with me and creating an airframe that I could look at, without their builds a would have never gotten this done.
Say goodbye to the old one I made, that one I rushed and did not take my sweet time.
Now I know it will never be perfect but it’s as close as I’m ever gonna get you know. I’m not gonna lie, this took me hours upon hours to get the airframe to look top notch.
So yeah, to make a long story short, it’s been remastered.
But enough about the mind numbing pain of the this airframe, you know have a choice to choose what you want to fly, what you want on it, and what weapons it will carry.
For right now the models you are able to fly are the Lima and Alpha models (for example UH-60L and UH-60A, both are S-70 designs).
The UH-60 Mike will be next, and will be added on the same page so keep an eye out. The SH-60 Seahawk will be added later on as well, however the MH-60s will be added earlier because it is an S-70 design.
Doors can be opened and taken off, just look for the hinge rotators.
Known problems: the only three problems I’ve run into is the tail landing gear sinking into the ground. I've done my best to fix the issue though, let me know if you experience it.
don’t put too many helicopters in your inventory or it’ll bug your device or whatever out.
And last when you add something of your own, be sure to make it as light as possible. It’s sensitive to certain things such as too much weight and weight on certain ends.
Things it can do:
It can lift medium to heavy objects.
Its speed is around 79-84 to 85 mph. To keep things realistic as the scenery goes bye and what not, helicopters are not overly fast machines.
As said, it can shoot a multitude of ordinances with the DAP configuration.
Note: don’t yank the yaw like you would with the heli rotors, just give it a little nudge.
Choose your ride! (The generic Army UH-60L is already the current one when you download it.)

Choose your ordinances and equipment! Put it as a sub assembly and paste it to an existing part of the aircraft or do whatever the heck you want with it, I don’t care lol.
The guns are more for just design, although they can shoot, especially when facing forward they can still do devastation.

Checklist in order:
Click the switch above the right pilot seat that says rotor break. That will make the blades free to spin.
Act 4 activates the stabilizer, this is crucial in the helicopter’s flight performance (I’m not joking, it helps with level flight).
Act 5 starts up the engines and rotors.
Act 6 is when you're ready to fly. Increase the throttle (or push the levers hanging above you forward.)
Act 2 is trim (nose up).
Act 8 is trim (nose down).
Landing gear to raise guns.
Vtol is for giving lift to the aircraft. Always have a finger or something on the collective (if you're using a touchscreen.) This is a heavy helicopter so adjusting the altitude when in level flight is key.
Enjoy!

To those I’ve tagged, you asked for me to tag you so here ya go, sorry about the Timing though.
Most Realistic helicopter ever in simple plane
@MobileBuilder21 thank you
Excellent work
@DISHWASHER2005 yeah, tho not as much these days...
@Freerider2142 do you still play in MP ?
@ivan6uy no problem friend
@Airheaddivision thx
@ivan6uy okay, go down to where you see the checklist (or activations) it now has a picture for better understanding, you click the switch that is in a red circle, hope that helps. It’s not a helicopter you can skip around with unfortunately.
I'm having a problem every time i try to take off or throttle up it just spins and explodes idk how to fix it
@ThatBanana no prob, also if you want to fix anything you are more than welcome to, just give me credit of course. 👍
@Airheaddivision T-T🙏
@localf15enjoyer thank you so much, hope you enjoyed the flight
You are amazing man, keep it up!
@ThatBanana right, I should have mentioned that, when yawning, don’t yank the yaw or you will spiral out. Just give it a little nudge, there was really no way for me to make it any less sensitive without messing up the build. The idea is to make it more like a simulation, as helicopters are supposed to be really sensitive, hope that helps.
Hi, great build. Love it so much. I flew it out on my phone for a few times and I couldn’t help but notice that the controls are all super sensitive. The yaw is the most sensitive and I often find myself spiraling out of the sky. I know I haven’t the slightest clue when it comes to building planes, but I’ve been flying builds for around 7 years now I think your black hawk is definitely the prettiest on the site. but I would say that the flight performance isn’t that great (idk maybe just a mobile thing). Maybe check out 2papi2chulo’s Apache? And some of Beetlejuice’s blackhawks? Notice their flight characteristics namely the collective control and the yaw controls. Ik that I might not have the slightest clue for building things but I think that having flown almost all the best helis this site has seen, 2papi2chulo’s Apache has the best flight performance, and your blackhawk looks the best and most realistic. Hopefully you can improve on the aspects I have suggested. Once again, beautiful beautiful build. Lots of love <3
@AluminiumFX thank you
Fortunate Son plays in the background
Landing zone's 2 clicks out
then why are being shot already
just shut up and get your gear on
just realised that is wrong Huey
Nice heli
@TheMouse ah okay, thank you
Btw, it only tags 3 people per comment, so I was not tagged. This is fine, as I managed to get here anyway, but remember this for next time.
