    @Altmztrn yup I know about those! Funny story about the R44: my friends dad in South Africa owned one and was transporting honey from his neighbours’ beehive farm. They had to go over a mountain but the helicopter was a bit too heavy and suffered a malfunction so they had to do a hard landing on the mountain which damaged the helicopter pretty bad. More importantly though, then entire thing was covered in very sticky honey so they decided to just leave it there and not try to take it back 😂. I think he now owns an R-66 as a replacement

    @Mustang51 these R-22 are commonly used for general aviation/private flight, but there's also the R-44 and R-66

    Lovely little build! I’ve always wanted to try helis but I never got round to it. I see these pretty often at the airfield I fly from

    @Omel oh, I see, most of my builds that were built in PC don't work well in Mobile, for example my original Mach 2 Helicopter
