Some info:
The Kaman HH-43 Huskie is a helicopter developed and produced by the American rotorcraft
manufacturer Kaman Aircraft. It is perhaps most distinctive for its use of twin intermeshing rotors,
having been largely designed by the German aeronautical engineer Anton Flettner.

First flown on 21 April 1953, the HH-43 went into production and was operated by several military
air services, including the United States Air Force, the United States Navy and the United States
Marine Corps. It was primarily intended for use in aircraft firefighting and rescue in the close vicinity
of air bases, but was extensively deployed during the Vietnam War. It was used as a search and
rescue platform, having often been enhanced with makeshift modification and new apparatus to
better suit the tropical conditions. The HH-43 was also exported to several other countries and
sold commercially. It set several aviation records in its class, and was the first helicopter to
experiment with twin-turbine engines.


Specifications
Top speed - ~150 kn (277 kmph)
Range - ~ 270 km on 5 rps
Engine - Jet with push propellers

@Ethanmoney0729, uh
progress stalled a bit, something is wrong with rear part steering
The bus current state:
hull - 95% (missing rear door)
interrior - 85% (missing lights, heaters and some minor logic)

@jamespfp, COM is good, its almost perfecly balanced out, its all about the chassis being not leveled for purpose.
About altitude hold, its more about heli propeller scheme specificly, it tends to kinda dive for a short period of time, so it gets up afterwards.

Its more of a concept anyways, i hope you liked it.

I quite liked this on a check-out flight and I'm looking forward to picking it apart on the Workbench too.

A couple of concerns with it though. One, getting it to spawn without tipping over seems like an RNG thing, dunno if anything can be done about that. Two, the center of gravity appears to be behind the two rotors (or, by default they're pitched Up too much) so when the Parking brake is released it wants to go backwards. That's easily handled on the ground but off putting when spawning inside a hangar.

I liked the Keypads not being labelled for purpose, but it did take me a few moments to work out which was obviously for what. Large Keypad for GPS target (AP), and Small Keypad for Desired Altitude in Feet. The AH works like a charm, very impressive, but it doesn't respond well to a lot of Down / Forward pitch.
