How Helicopters Work and How to Build a Swashplate | Besiege 

If you are thinking about building a helicopter, you first want to learn how to build an airplane. Dawn-Shade has made a brilliant tutorial for that. Link is in the description.

nice! a good and easy to follow design. your explanation are also quite clear I think i started to know how swashplates works now

I wish I had a pc so I could build my own heli or a baloon-supported floater. Very educational and straight to the point, excellent video as always Mathis.

This is by far the best guide on building helicopter swashplates I've seen. The design is simple, yet encompasses all essential functions of the swash. My only gripe with this design is the brace clipping; I know they have no hitbox, but this wouldn't work in reality for obvious reasons. I've tried to make swashplates many times in Besiege; I know exactly how they work and would always model them almost exactly as they are on my RC helicopters (6 channel), yet I would always get some form of unbalance from somewhere, causing the rotor to wobble and break. Either way, due to the way this game works, this is clearly a superior design than mine, uses a lot less parts, and I thank you for this video.. *Edit:* So, I've build a slightly modified version of this design, slimmed down the components with mods, using "Block 52" for the blades and reinforced the whole structure. I've tried making the tail rotor 5 times now, all with differing designs; return to centre (twice), push button (again, twice) and just blades on a fast wheel, yet none of them provide enough torque to stop the whole helicopter from spinning... When it does, I can't control the yaw. The helicopter has 6 blades and I tried to model off your S-64 on the workshop, but it still just won't work :c

Like your narration!😍😍😍Although it's too sophisticated for me to understand.👏🏻 Amazing job!

Thank you for this tutorial. I've already used the shade's ones to build my own plane and now I will build my own helicopter. 👍

OMG you're a godsent, you helped me make a swashplate in Plane Crazy ( another game similiar to besiege without the medieval aspects ) they said it was near-impossible to make one, *SIKE, IM GOING TO ENJOY BEING GOD NOW !*

Man I am a helicopter mechanic and the way yoi built that swashplate is amazing!!! I was wondering how everyone built PC links! Perfect! Thanks for the tutorial!!! I just got the game and have been trying make a flying machine. It goes up, it goes down, then it goes boom lol

Very incredible. And incredibly similar to real life rotors

The most helpful and to the point video I've ever watched

I never thought that I would be able to understand a real world thing from a game. Thanks

I really like the look of the Seahawk my dude. Hope you get to fix the thing where the cockpit of the Heli likes to decapitate itself.

very clever design, good vid

Hello! I wish everyone in the comments a fantastic and healthy day/night!!!👍👍👍❤❤❤😇😇😇

Excellent work, your vid is very well explained

Amazing!

Awesomely simple and clever

Really helpful, Thanks! Earned a sub

I LOOOOOVE UR CHANNEL

thanks man, very good

how the fuck your creation not getting an award of the coolest and smoothest creation ever???

u describe it liek a lego set. amazing.

10/10 vid. Is there anyway to get block 52 in the multiverse update? i got everything i need besides that Dx

Thank you

thanks this help alot!

Cool,u r the best!:)

Very interesting very interesting indeed.

its REALY GENIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

nice job!!!!!

Hey i got a problem when i pitch forward the swashplate move slightly to the right or left making its unstable please help

Thank you for teaching us i love my work and very very very thank you so much becuase i can make my own satisfiying but i still watch your vedio

Can we have a complete tutorial for the helicopter?

So awesome

Nice voice reveal👍👍

thanks

Thanks

cant get it to work. i wonder if something has become impossible due to an update. why those two pistons in the stem under the rotor? they are not key mapped or really used at all it looks like. some kinda suspension/spring ish type effect goin on there maybe?

did the future video where he built a helicopter ever eventuate? got this working, but have no idea how to tie it in with tail rotor to counter the torque

don't u need one unpowered wheel or swivel joint under the wheel to go against that torque generated by the powered wheel up top?

wow. now i understand how hard it is to build a helicopter. (i tried this but i didnt do something right and my helicopter broke and crashed the game Xd) great video tho

you should redo this turtorial with beseiges new stuff as i imagine its now possible to simplify this design

Nice

How does the tail operate? . My bell222 flies but the torque spins the frame:

Hello Mathis! I'd like to know something. How do I spawn multiple builds like you do in you're videos?

Excuse me did u can explain to make tail rotors? Or it same like basic rotors?

whats your texture pack or skin bc im new to besiege and why is your heli look so real btw nice vid.

If you remove the block, the lower part also rotates

whats the use of the collective? edit: nvm i got it thanks

Hello please what application you use in designing this.

I play ksp non stop. Is this game more fun? It looks extremely fun and more advanced which i like. What do you think?

Voice reveal :0

How do you spawn 2 vehicles?

please do some tail rotor destruction in your next video

can you do the tutorial for do the helicopter complete?

Thanks! Now I can possibly copy this down in a game on roblox so I finally have a realistic swash plate on my heli

But how do i stop it from spinning out of controll??

thought you said Bigbepis for a sec

do you have any tips i how to engineer stablility nto a helicopter so that it flies well and stably?

Perfect, how to counter spin? if i spin my wheel the body spin too

Does your helicopters use "Blade flapping" to counter the dissymmetry of lift from the blades going into the wind?

How you even upgrade or update your black hawk??

how to fix counter spin?

I try to move my helicopter forward and it rolls on one direction, how to I fix it?

Can you show me how to do the tail roto

Soon as you unpin, the bottom spins. How do you stop that 🤔

can you help me i am using your updated version of the v22 osprey what buttons do I press to take off i have the turbines on but I'm having trouble I'm new to this game

Can you make a video about flapping hinges swashplates I tried following your guide but I’ve got one blade going way to high and one level

How would i add flapping?

Does it require mods?

Its amazing this sistem to helicopters, but i dont have good progression with my planes :(. You can made a tutorial for a bell boeing v-22 osprey, i believe if yoy take my opinion your be to help so much and you are going to have more subs and likes. Take my recomendation, i like your videos.

When I load one of your creation into a map I can’t fly it cause it says it’s out of bounds how do I get rid of that?

How to you reduce the torque

spilst du mit wasd oder mit denn pfeiltasten

Which version this

Can you please reply me the controls of your planes and helis

What mode is this

Sygt brormand

The pistons push the ballasts, how to i fix this

Bro,how to build the rotor? Please

What is that music at 5:00 - 6:51

this is insanely complicated! I'll never be an engineer!

Song?

you can also make a video explaining how to make the tail rotor of a helicopter please i want to make a helicopter

finally

What's the track playing in the background with that synthy voice?

please more tutorial

need this translated to ksp.there is no tutorials on how to make this in ksp.

This is in no way what a real H-60 swashplate looks like. Lol

Its kinda still working but you need to manually fix the mistakes because of besiege new physics

umm, when i unpin my swashplate the bottom rotates in the opposite direction.

Hey big mathis play roblox plane crazy its like besiege but bloxks there motor or helicopter

It works great in roblox plane crazy

Where can i find this game??

....... I am messing around in this game to make basic cannon and catapult (though in my defense I just got game) and he is making freaking helicopters.... I get headaches in getting designs for catapult to work....

Muito maneiro me ajudo muito valeu🙏🤌👌

is this you???? i thought you were a big brain kid!

🤩🤩🤩❤❤❤❤❤

I am a new player and all my builds suck whatever i try, i could really use some basic stuff about strong hinges and pivot stuff but most YT videos are ...not that good.. Anyone know a channel that does Besiege for Dummies?

its available in phone
