Flight model
Hover Hold now holds its spot hands-off. It takes over the cyclic you were holding when it captures and works from the attitude the aircraft actually sits still at, so letting go of the stick no longer sends it creeping forward.
Fixed the tail wagging in a hover on the Arcade flight model.
Power required now rises with airspeed the way it does on the real aircraft. Blade drag is worked out at true blade speed, with a compressibility penalty on the advancing tip, so cruise torque climbs toward the published numbers.
The UH-60’s AFCS has been retuned. Attitude hold is prompt and firm, heading hold is back (pedal turns stay free, and it captures once the nose stops), and altitude hold captures and holds.
Ground handling
The UH-60 and CH-47 now have solid landing gear. A wheel pressed against a wall, roof edge or ledge stops there and holds its spot instead of passing through, and the aircraft no longer gets kicked up when a wheel is pushed sideways into a building. Set a wheel on a rooftop edge for a pinnacle and work the aircraft off it.
For modders
Added RW_WheelColliderComponent. Put it on any wheeled airframe and each wheel gets a collider that rides the suspension with it and grips what it’s pressed against. The airframe’s own physics body is not modified.

Use Rotor Framework on your server

Add Rotor Framework to the game.mods array of your server config.json. The config generator builds the full file, the mod manager keeps the mod list and its dependencies organized, and the config validator checks an existing config. The adding mods guide and mod dependencies guide walk through it step by step.
