We have used control, sound, movement and sensors.



10.- We program the movement of the helicopter. We click on object 3 and draw the movement sequence.



Now we can duplicate the object or change it for other objects such as ships, viruses, bugs ...

It should be noted that the screen has coordinates of -200, 200 in X and Y.
