The PO 1 is Sterne-Labors first helicopter, made in 1983 after they realized helicopters are kinda a big deal. It is armed with a 25mm rotary cannon and a small 250lb bomb. (hover % is around 60-65)

(This is my first helicopter.... I decided to roll the dice on this one and see where it goes.)

    Simple suggestion make the body wider for a slightly more realistic feel/look otherwise good job
