HE-01 Diamondback

My first helicopter!

The HE-01 Diamondback is a small but deadly ground-attack helicopter designed to scout and fight on difficult or impassable terrain for ground troops. It is fast, maneuverable, and armed to the teeth.

Weapons:
14 Rockets
4 AGM-01 Missiles
Gun Turrent

Controls:
Throttle + VTOL up to move
Yaw to go sideways (also known as yaw)
Pitch to go up and down (also known as pitch)
Roll to roll the helicopter right or left (I think you already get the idea)
AG1 turns on jets
AG2 + Trim for turrent elevation
AG3 + Trim for turrent side-to-side
AG8 for navigation lights

Tips/notes:
I think the Diamondback is stable enough and therefore did not equip it with a gyroscope. If you think you need one, I would recommend you add it yourself.
The helicopter has a tendency to yaw left on takeoff.
When firing the missiles, make sure to line the target up with the gunsight, or the helicopter may explode.
Sorry for the small thumbnail, but the posting interface was glitching out. Besides, if you click on the image, it will enlarge.
