Auto Credit Based on belugasub's HELICOPTER CHALLENGE! [50 upvote prize]

[updated XML because of an issue I found]

Hey guys! I'm back with another new build, a helicopter to be precise. It's a remake of course, and a challenge entry. Been a while since I joined a challenge. Anyways, enjoy or...
No threat, mood is good, Just enjoy

The SAH-13W is a variant of the SAH-13 made for the Marines of the Webley isles. The Marines are known for changing the name of their aircraft to match their variant letter, so that applies to here as well. The heli can fit nicely in an LHD because of its folding heli rotors (something I cannot replicate in game as that will need custom rotors and funky trees). The heli was introduced in 2008 and has been used ever since.

Instructions:

Normal heli controls
VTOL for collective, Throttle for throttle
Trim for Forward thrust
AG 2 to open doors, AG 3 for hover gyro
AG 5 to unlock weapons

Start up:

  • Flick Apu Electricity switches
  • Turn on both engines
  • Turn on all MFD Screens
  • .....
  • profit

[Other buttons should be easy to figure out, 
Ive only put a few to save on  
performance cost]

    @LlamaIndustries It's anything BUT an Apache. But if you're out for references, it's practically a Cobra with landing gear instead of skids.
