Has anyone made a working helicopter?

I tried it, but it didn't work. He just flew a little higher and lost control

Hi...I can't fly a helicopter sim either. I've done different company 'cockpit procedures training devices' or whatever the legalistic term is for non-loggable simulators. I've done a couple 'full motion' simulators, too., and I can't land or lift in them, and can only approximate a hover in them, so don't feel bad. I have more than a hundred thousand helicopter landings in my log and the worst of them was better than the best I ever did in a sim.

@NoIDontWanna yes. it counts

Plenty of people have, but Kell's comes to mind. Has a working swashplate and everything.
