Designing a bassline soundling like helicopter's engine

Can anyone help me please to design the sound of a bassline which would have the same characteristics as the sound of helicopter's engine. I have attached the link below for a better understanding.
I am looking to create a punchy, with very short attack and no release bassline with that characteristics timbre.

could try LFO on the filter, fairly high resonance depending on synth, add some noise in as well

Also a lfo on Volume.

OR

take a single saw wave, add a low pass filter to taste, and play a really, really low note. Maybe some low-cut reverb as well to add ambience. Add aLFO with a Random wave, slow rate and slight amount to the cutoff to make it more animated. Like this:

I'm playing the F-2 note here

Yeah its a very rhythmic plucky sound you are essentially immulating sommething that isnt really a sound at all but a result of force and energy

Its going to take some careful tweakig but definitely achievable with almost any synth .
