Description from the Workshop

All components are fully customizable and adjustable for customization with other modded vehicles, including options to turn off certain settings for helicopters with Twin Rotors or Omnirotor designs. 1: Low-G Mast Bump At low velocities, it is possible for twin blade helicopters like the UH1H to overextend their rotors when descending, causing the rotors to touch the mast and cause the rotors to make contact with the tail. While it's not possible for me to modify the helicopter's visual model, it will cause massive damage to the rear of the vehicle. 2: J-hook Windshear When at high speeds, turning the helicopter to perform a "J-Hook" will result in the windspeeds ripping the helicopter's blades clean off due to immense pressure. 3: Fuel Starvation When single fueltank vehicles like the UH1H rotate beyond 100 degrees for extended timeperiods, fuel will fail to reach the engines and the vehicle will sieze, requiring engine restart. 4: Gearbox Overstress When the helicopter attempts to climb fast, the gearbox's rotary disc will take accumulative damage over time for as long as the ascent goes above 5m/s after about 3.5 seconds of leniency. reducing the ascent speed will regenerate the health of the gearbox as the disc replenishes engagement. 5: Vortex Ring State VRS occurs when a vehicle descends into its own backwash, causing the turbulent winds to force the helicopter down faster than would usually be acceptable. moving faster than 25km/h will remove the helicopter from the backwash zone and allow normal flight. Damage to the helicopter will accumulate a higher chance of entering VRS. 6: Autonomous Recovery When the helicopter has sustained enough damage, the helicopter enters a fly-by-wire state wherein it will attempt to land safely at its rough position. it will not exit this state until it has safely landed on the ground. Autohover will naturally attempt to avoid all possible negative incidents so as to not shear the rotor during a safe landing entry. the...
