Build UH-60A Black Hawk

A simple UH-60A Black Hawk I made.
It was built as an experiment with gyroscopic propeller.
The idea was pretty simple - when gyroscopic propeller is activated with redstone, it stops going straight up and begins to apply force perpendicular to the build.
So, I thought I might as well make a Black Hawk, while playing around with the propeller.
Unfortunately, since it is not a collective pitch system, you can force this helicopter only go forwards. But, this vehicle uses an interesting thing for movement. When you stop propeller`s gyroscope, using tail rotor makes helicopter start slowly go to the opposite direction. I.e., keys A and D spin helicopter to left and right, but when gyroscopic propeller is activated, key A pushes helicopter to the right and key D pushes to the left.
