Helicopters are a must

This is a beautiful simulator at low level and as such is crying out for a helicopter to go and explore some of the nooks and crannies that you can’t get to in most other aircraft!

I appreciate they aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, but nonetheless they have been a must in all of the big name simulators.

Just posting in strong agreement.

supporting this as well!!! (besides VR!)

Yes, but in the meanwhile, you can fly the Shock Ultra !!!

I planned to wait until VR was available, but I couldn’t :frowning:

Ha yes that thing is brilliant for STOL! Have you tried a roof top landing yet? I’m not sure if crash detection will prevent it?

Couldn’t agree more! Really looking forward to the helicopters to arrive. In FSX I had a lot of fun flying shuttle missions in my Bell 212 to the North sea oilrigs.

LOL! Well done

That thing is borderline VTOL! Was flying in formation with a taxiing airliner!

Flat roofs are good for landing
The video wasn’t me, but this pics are mine

Need to give this a go later! Great job.

nice idea … but imagine doing that in VR … am so much looking forward.

wishlist

  • VR
  • Helicopters
  • more VFR landmarks and ostacles

I can’t wait for helicopter flightmodels either, luckily Heli’s are already planned and announced to be released eventually!

Yeah, in fact, since I don’t haver TrackIr, I had to do it in 3rd person, since in 1st person I couldn’t see the instruments and the “runway” properly … camera handing with mouse/keyboard/hotas is a nightmare.

Helicopter won’t work because various controllers have issues to recognize rudder axis.

Would be impossible to fly a Heli without rudder input.

my rig works fine … it’s a bit arkward to use collective as thrust lever on fixed wing a/c but I got used to it …

The newer version even has pedal brakes. love this thing using DCS and FS2

Yes, I agree. It is a must. I want to look at the different buildings and nature. I cannot do that right now. Add at least two helicopters, please.

Yes please add helicopters, we had helis in previous versions and I was quite disappointed to see that not a single one made it into 2020 - the most detailed MS FS we ever had! I mean cities are so rich in details, in NYC the buildings even have real world signs on them, I freaked out when I saw the H&M sign on a building lol. But it was gone in 5 seconds when I was flying through the city with a Cessna, no time to really appreciate the work the devs have put into the game in a plane.

Agreed helicopters are a must have !

Absolutely, an ultra light would be nice too, anything that flys nice and slow
