The largest, most powerful stock helicopter ever

77 Industries presents:

Azi24 Cronus

The length of a 747, able to airlift an M1A2 Abrams.

 

 

It doesn't have its own manual yet but for explanation of most functions you can use this one.

Wow, that's incredible. It's like you got bored, took one bay of your Athena station and attached 2 rotors on it.  I'all have to check out the craft file when I'm at my computer.

 Not a bad part count for the size of machine.  I think I'm behind a version though to be able to test this out.

I've made it in 1.2.2. It might work in 1.2.1.

Thanks guys! Hope you'll enjoy flying it.

The use of DOF in your screenshots alone makes me want to download this

Changelog version 1.1:

• In some cases an engine would develop a low-frequency, high-amplitude vibration. Enough to shear the engine off the wing. Added 2 struts per engine to remedy the situation. Don’t use the undo function in the editor, I’ve stretched those struts beyond original game length limit using offset. Undo resets them.

• Changed the horizontal stabilizer into an all-moving elevator for more control and less drag during forward flight.

I know its unarmed, but it just looks scary! What kind of cargo can she haul?

[SG Aero]

Wow. How do people even build copters anyways?

I have a picture in the album of an M1A2 Abrams, The main battle tank of the US army. Mass: 65t.

How I did that in KSP: lots of ore tanks clipped together :-)

That's ... a long story. But you're welcome to explore ... see the link in my sig - Stock Turboprop & Turboshaft Creations. Better leave the OP for what it is ... still suffers from the Imgur mutation.
