Helicopter Collab
Welcome to the Helicopter Collab.
You don't have to be great at making helicopters, you just have to have an interest!
This Collab isn't just about helicopters themselves, we are looking for working mechanical parts, real engines, dummy engines that look good, flight simulators, arcade helicopters, weapons systems, pretty much anything to do with helicopters, post it here.
If we get some really great stuff, we can put it all together and make the ultimate flying machine.
Current Staff List:
No staff just yet. Let's see what kind of people we can get. Suggest what you would like to work on! I put you here in staff list of it is good.
Here is my helicopter simulator, fits well into this Collab.
This Collab will be updated regularly, stay tuned for updates.

Re: Helicopter Collab
I shall also join this collab.
I've got an idea for an improved S-Unit, so I can attach that to an improves S-Thruster (which I also have an idea for) (or I could use a modified version of Beezlebub II for added realism), and also attach the heart of the new S-Unit concept (a Lucid device) for rotation, and attach davidz40's Storm Bolter...
It'll hopefully be ready this weekend. I can't wait.

Matthias Wandel is epic, in my humble opinion.
I love my brain...
ARE YA HAPPY NOW?????

Recently, I discovered something a lot of you probably already knew: Minecraft is awesome.
Due to this, I may not be as active as usual for a while.

Nor can I. Is this heli of your own design?

Mostly- I may have seen a RaCopter with a similar design, the lift was/will be a multi-layered collaboration which YOU set off (I think), the gun is entirely thanks to davidz40, and the stabilizer will be a combination of RaRa, whoever invented the Lucid device, and myself. But I haven't started on it yet.

Re: Helicopter Collab
I can make some gattling lasers. Is that enough to join the collab for weapon systems?

Re: Helicopter Collab
I can work on engines, weapons, and textures. I've never actually made a realistic helicopter, so this will be interesting. Well done, Dare; your collab has merit.
What helicopter will we be working on?

Re: Helicopter Collab
I say make a helicopter best suited to whatever technology you put on it!

Re: Helicopter Collab
Bigger challenge: Make the whole thing controlled by a single motorized ragdoll like Kilinich did here.

Re: Helicopter Collab
That actually is feasible... *designing helicopter in head* You know, we might be able to do that!

Re: Helicopter Collab
Sure that's a pretty good idea actually. But realistic helicopter engines (the ones I use) have scripting to control cyclic and collective ... player control would not be possible with it.
P.S. I was thinking Mi-24 Hind

Re: Helicopter Collab
Looks like you guys don't want to wait for thrusters...
Anyway, I have many helicopters and engine concepts so you can keep it in mind then building something new...

Well you've pretty much covered it all there. We're not trying to make new flight engines, we are just here to teach each other and make some nice helicopters. I use your engines all the time, they are simply amazing. I learnt how to tune every aspect of them now, so I can change collective rate, cyclic reaction speed and other things. I just have to say thanks.

Re: Helicopter Collab
Hey, I can input skins for heli's if you wish! I will make them low lag too, As I know what you guys are like
I hope to see alot come out of this collab!

Re: Helicopter Collab
No need to ask permission man. Post all things helicopter here, I think you can make great skins, I've seen your work. And yes, this Collab will create a lot of great stuff.

Haha, i had the same idea for the chopper i'm working on right now, its very nearly finished just needs some propulsion.
And a helicopter suggestion; The x-2 Sikorsky high speed helicopter. Lots of stuff to work on here.

edit here it is. Tried to show some inner workings of heli and tried to mechanically simulate cyclic & collictive controls, ie this heli will fly inverted once finished.

Thanks Dare, That means more than you'd imagine

Re: Helicopter Collab
Are we going for realism here, or can I start making some outlandish weapons?

Well... the pilot doesn't actually have to control it, he just needs to look like
he's controlling it.
I guess we're going for realism... but who says outlandish weapons are unrealistic?

Re: Helicopter Collab
Here's my vote:
Realism? REALISM? REALISM?? REALISM?!?!?!?!
MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!!
Okay wow. That's what I call a mega-spaz.
But yeah. I say throw realism out the window. Photon torpedoes all the way!

Re: Helicopter Collab
I think that we should make a helicopter that actually works before we get add the superawesomecollisionbasedsandwichcannon.
I have an idea for a manual throttle mechanism (controlled by lever in ragdoll's hand), but my implementation is terrible... I'll upload it and see if anyone can improve on it.
