Rigidbodies are useful for stuff that falls, collides and moves in an uncontrolled way (and cars), not so useful for anything else.

Trying to control a Rigidbody is extremely difficult and frustrating (I'm talking from my own experience).

Some times is easier to code a simple point that can be affected by simple forces, the math is pretty easy.

You can also use a Rigidbody and lock the rotation, and then rotate just the geometry according to the direction of movement (Using look_at).
