How do you you give units to other factions?

Also, how do you release mindworms in the wild?

To give units to another faction I think you have to be in their territory. Then under action menu there is a command to turn of to another faction. The other faction should be able to build that type of unit now, but usually doesn't

I think turn over mindworm is in the action menu as well. this is a good thing to do near empty opponent bases without declaring war on them. Sometimes it works sometime it doesn't.

This question is related in the way of being able to create a unit given as a gift or found. Every once in a while, early in the game, I find the unity scout chopper. With it in possesion, am I able to create more or do I still have to wait until I've researched the req'd tech? Has anyone else found it?

You can not build or upgrade 'unity' units. What you find in a pod is it.

actually I remember being able to upgrade unity transports to regular transports.

Just fly the chopper into another factions territroy (if you have enough fuel) and turn over control. Even if it runs out of fuel the next turn the faction will like you for it. But you cannot build any choppers yourself until you get the tech.
