Inspired by a Reddit post on /r/KSP, I embarked on a mission that would see me construct a fully stock mini science and exploration helicopter, and a surface base, and sent it all to Laythe, the blue pearl of the Jool system, to establish life there, and have a gander flying the ol' whirlybird around, to many successes and failures. Enjoy!
