VTOL up or down to wind-up the spring.
Activation 1 to release the spring,
Actvation 2 to let her loose. Release activation 2 when she is totally un-wound, but before she goes the other way.
Best time I have is 7 minutes of rotation (yes, not really perpetual :)).

I have a true perpetual super sonic orthnicopter... just spawn it at 2000 mph, rather agile, I'm never uploading it so the devs won't fix it.
EXCELCIOR!!!! Science is triumphant once again! HOORAH
@XVIdarkLithium Yeah, I noticed, wierd - hahaha
@SpiritusRaptor Nope, tiny decided to freak out and go in circles
@XVIdarkLithium That would be the 'funny' fuel thing making that happen is my guess...
Try placing it on the tiny, and got to 8:30min spin time
Cool
Awesome be cool to see your glider if you make it
Ahh so you're finally making a rubberband powered plane @SpiritusRaptor
You have to much time.
Reseach for a spring powered glider! @221131
