Beginner's Mining Helicopter

It's true that the term used may be ambiguous, I meant that it was easy to operate, not necessarily that it's the most low cost

So how is this a starting build when Gyros need Lead ?!
Can't find lead anywhere..

Thx for the info, it's updated

you missing one ) at the end line 33 in main.xc
@drillComposition(106,12,$blankColor,$sc,(input_text("drill",0)))

I don't know what the problem is then. I've tried both a gamepad and a joystick. They both operate correctly in calibration, but the game is detecting inputs at idle and doesn't respond correctly to the desired actions, ie: idle throttle is causing max throttle, steering and rotation without any input from the joystick! Other controls simply don't provide any response. It's like trying to fly with someone else fighting the controls with you.

@King Sirloin It is not abandoned, it works perfectly fine on my end with both a joystick or keyboard as long as the Roll/Pitch/Yaw controls, etc. are used correctly. Although the intensity of the gyroscopes might need to be reduced a bit.

If your joystick isn't working, it seems to be an issue with your joystick configuration, or it doesn't follow the Roll/Pitch/Yaw logic

Seems like abandonware. Not one comment of support from the creator. I couldn't get it to do anything than straight up and down with a joystick, and absolutely nothing with a keyboard.

ah, I'm just in the dark ;) never mind

Is this blueprint still current ? Nothing on the display at all and no way to turn it on (or so it would seem)

I'm struggling with the flight controls.

Could anyone offer the code that would allow flight controls as follows:

Yaw: Q/E
Roll: A/D
Pitch: W/S
Thrust: Space

Maybe even for steep terrain landings, having P toggle the ground anchor?
