Description
As a challenge, I built this flyer to demonstrate that it's possible to build well maneuverable self-balancing flyers in Scrap Mechanic without having to use glitch welding or blueprint editing. It's completely built in-game and is essentially suitable for survival with some few extra modifications. It features a smooth pixel-perfect balance system and the ability to pitch and roll.

I purposely kept it simple for people to learn from it. Watch the video to get a comprehensive explanation of how it works. Enjoy!

Disclaimer
This flyer does use stabilizer glitches and suspension glitches (both built in-game), so whether it's really "Vanilla" is debatable. People that build flyers without glitches are still awesome!

Controls
  1. Roll left
  2. Pitch up
  3. Pitch down
  4. Roll right
  5. Fly up
  6. Fly down
  7. On/Off

Use this flight system freely. No credit needed.

@#03f4fcFoe Hammer E419™ I was actually scared I made it too boring by keeping most stuff slow. Anyway thanks for the feedback, I had really no idea if people were gonna rebuild this flyer in the first place, so that's nice. Are you rebuilding this in survival or in creative?

perhaps a more detailed tutorial with less time lapses would help...some of us cant follow spider webs that well and may connect it wrong.

Yes survival has weaker physics than creative for some reason unfortunately.
Here is the build I plan to convert to your system:

@Pickle11111 Nice! I wonder how well it would work. I haven't tested this flyer with the survival physics. I only know that if you would try to rebuild it with the suspension glitch correction system that you would need to increase the strength of the suspension glitches to compensate for the weak survival physics.

Very nice gyro design I might use it in survival to make a more compact and efficient flyer than what I have now
