Ground Attack Helicopter

About the NOTAR system:

NOTAR ("no tail rotor") is a helicopter system which avoids the use of a tail rotor. It was developed by McDonnell Douglas Helicopter Systems (through their acquisition of Hughes Helicopters). The system uses a fan inside the tail boom to build a high volume of low-pressure air, which exits through two slots and creates a boundary layer flow of air along the tailboom utilizing the Coanda effect. The boundary layer changes the direction of airflow around the tailboom, creating thrust opposite the motion imparted to the fuselage by the torque effect of the main rotor. Directional yaw control is gained through a vented, rotating drum at the end of the tailboom, called the direct jet thruster. Advocates of NOTAR assert that the system offers quieter and safer operation over a traditional tail rotor.


About the aircraft:

The helicopter has a seat, two simple bombs, a missile launcher, NOTAR System ("no Tail Rotor"). The helicopter was made for ground attack, it is a helicopter without Rotor in the tail of the helicopter.


Controls:

VTOL: altitude control
The helicopter doesn't have a very good control, so to tilt it to the side I recommend that the VTOL is not on top but a little below, and also use the RIGHT controller to achieve the turn. And the cockpit doesn't work right either, Still missing some buttons and among others.

    As this is my first attack helicopter it doesn't have very good control.
    These last few days I was out of ideas and very busy. So I decided to make an attack helicopter.
