I'll be honest, doesn't look the best, and it shows you don't have much experience with helicopters (especially with the lack of Yaw control...)
But this helicopter is not bad!
I've flown worse helicopters by much "better" builders.
Looks don't matter to me that much, I care about functionality and that a creation fills the role it's meant to.
You got the weight and balance pretty good, and the flight model isn't bad.
IMO Flying with Gyro on kind'a sucks...But Gyro Off this thing is pretty good and reacts pretty close to how a helicopter should, I think this is a great start.
I like the Idea with the doors and Gunners, and I think that with time you'll be able to make something crazy with that ;)
@TheFantasticTyphoon We are happy hear about your interest in our new Snowfox
We can provide those numbers now that we entered full production here at Makhe'ra Industries.
Unit cost are 10,000,000$$ per unit, and we'll send you an Extra 15 units for free to serve as reserve and/or as training helicopters.
to a Total of 160 Helicopters.
Wow this is Awesome!
Thank you @TheFantasticTyphoon for making this challenge! Cheers!
This was the first challenge I entered in SP with the aim to complete, it was really fun and challenging to design something with the time constraint and limitations.
It was really awesome to see all the helicopters made for this challenge!
(If you didn't notice, I'm a huge heli nerd...)
Tbh I didn't expect to win... but I'm really happy I did, and I'm very proud of the helicopter that came out of it.
.
I'm working on a Full gunship version with more missiles and rockets, which is a bit crazy with how much this little heli can carry...
and a Civilian version for underslung cargo lifting, and sport flying. ;)
@ACEPILOT109 I removed the comment because it was a bit inappropriate of me...
You can name it whatever you want, it was just strange seeing a MP session by someone else.
I didn't want to sound like I had something against you or anything like that, I think any promotion to the game is good at the end of the day.
and I liked the video :)
@Tully2001 Yeah, that's why I posted the last post and noted that I'm not going to respond to any more posts about the subject.
And after that I didn't respond to any more post about it.
@Tully2001 Why was I striked exactly?
And why was my message deleted?!?!?!
I was only defending myself, I could have pointed out that I'm from Israel and take the whole German ancestors to a different direction, and be a Total jerk about it!!
I thought the comment section is made so players can respond and have a conversation about builds, If you want to prevent this, you should have banned @Zanbradcr3per from making any more posts.
As you could clearly see where the conversation was heading!!
@Zanbradcr3per I had my Gyro on AG-7 since my Orca II, and this helicopter has Gyros both on 7 & 8, I don't know what your problem is, but you really need to stop being so full of yourself!
@Zanbradcr3per If you think I stole something from you, you're barking at the wrong tree.
I never take ideas from people without thanking them for it, nor do I copy things that are not already uploaded.
If you think I stole something from you, then you can either prove it, or understand that I didn't, It's up to you.
@Zanbradcr3per The hovering idea I got from Thecatbaron as I helped him with his helicopter.
you can find a link to the Auto pilot hover I used in the description.
@TheFantasticTyphoon here it is, hope you enjoy the flight model.
AG-8 will make it easier to fly with keyboard and mouse...
also working on a lower part count that will be linked later.
@V22Osprey Thank you :)
I needed the glowing shots to look more like plasma...
and the cannon didn't have tracers when I made this, I might update with cannon and missiles in the future ;)
@CrashFighter05 Dude, You are awesome for doing something like this!
I suck at setting up servers, I really want to setup a 24hr public server somewhere in Europe.
@TheFantasticTyphoon I know... I'm just surprised so many players haven't found the Brown pearl yet, and some actually told me they don't believe it exists...
Both servers are down.
Failed to connect.
It might be a "Server" issue, but I think someone is actively trying to shut them down.
new players like WARRIOR WOLF have been loading the server with 1000+ and 2000+ part creations.

@BaconAircraft lol, Well sorry, but happy to disappoint ;)
@asteroidbook345 pretty much.. heli's in general are as fast as biplanes, even faster..
Just don't expect them to win too many dogfights ;)
@Cammandaslam This thing is a monster...
very twitchy to fly, and the G's would turn the pilot into jam ;)
@Cammandaslam That's what it's made for ;)
glad you like it & Thank you!
looks pretty good
@asteroidbook345 hopefully :P
@KrAkenAtomic will do :)
good luck
@ApplejuiceYT2 Link
+1It's hard to fly, and this version doesn't have a cannon
First ;)
@Thecatbaron @MisterT and me having a beautiful flight that almost feels like slow motion.
Frnaknesteinly beautiful!
+1Great helicopter!

I'll answer the devs and mods only.

@thefalkenreich just make sure you use the lower part count one for MP
@thefalkenreich once you download it, It's completely up to you how to use it :)
@FlyingFish1 Thank you!
Activate AG-4 before using cameras 3&4
@MTakach Thank you!! :)
@DanDaFreakinMan I'm actually sad that I couldn't make it work on the curve...
so I decided to leave it without any markers to save part count :(

twirly birdie should be fun to fly around in ;)
@TheFantasticTyphoon Thank you very much :D

@FairFireFight @jamesPLANESii Thank you for your systems!
@TheFantasticTyphoon here it is, hope you enjoy the flight model.

I love how smooth your builds are!
+2They remind me of old nickel airplanes toys I had as a kid.
Great helicopter!
fun to fly, fun to mess things up with >:)
@V22Osprey Thank you :)

@V22Osprey Thank you :)
My HK aerial is my favorite replica VTOL link pretty easy to fly and control..
but my P-380 is something I made for having fun Link
and there's my bike if you want something to drive around like a madman ;) link
Hope you like these.
feel free to use any parts or ideas you see in any of my builds :)

+1Link to the original tutorial by @TheFantasticTyphoon
@TheFantasticTyphoon I'm making a video for hunting the brown pearl.
+2I'll include a link to your tutorial in the description.
@ACEPILOT109 Both servers are offline for me.
and I heard others can't join either.
@TheFantasticTyphoon yup, or it spawns and runs in a random direction before you can see it.
+3@MTakach Oh ok, cool.
@TheFantasticTyphoon I know... I'm just surprised so many players haven't found the Brown pearl yet, and some actually told me they don't believe it exists...
+3Here's a Quick suggestion.
+2Save your location as a spawn point the moment you get the "Ye have made a grave mistake!" message.
sorry I don't get it...
I never use the autopilot so I don't see anything in it.
Both servers are down.
+1Failed to connect.
It might be a "Server" issue, but I think someone is actively trying to shut them down.
new players like WARRIOR WOLF have been loading the server with 1000+ and 2000+ part creations.
@Kakhikotchauri1 the server might be full or someone is actively trying to crash the servers.
