This model is a try and a WIP to get a realistic and complete simulation of a helicopter.
This model is a WIP to get a realistic and complete simulation of a helicopter.


By using [[Nasal]]-scripting nearly all main systems have been simulated to a degree which wasn't available at this time on [[FlightGear]]'s helicopters. The [[flight dynamics model]] is custom made and though a lot of values could only be estimated, it should give an good impression on how the real one flies.
