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 simulator…

That’s one of the reasons why I keep saying it’s unrealistic to ask for helicopters before the date Microsoft has announced. And even that, considering the amount of work needed, may be seen as a bit optimistic. Still, a lot of what you are mentioning, especially engine management, is or needs to b…

I agree it is a massive undertaking, we will push the limits of what we can do and hopefully release a nice heli for everyone to enjoy. I get a big smile on my face when I think about what we have planned.

I wish you the best of luck. Making them behave like helicopters should be interesting. I’m eager to see them doing the maneuvers I mentioned above. That will be a fine starting point.

For the time being I recommend the Aerolite 103 in the market place. A superslow ultralite aircraft with great visibility. Perfect to explore the scenery up close and at a casual speed. Not quite a helicopter, but it scratches the itch until the real thing arrives.

Oh yeah. It’s great fun with VR. And I have done some hovering and landing on rooftops with it, I must admit :rofl:

Looking at the pictures and videos is a very poor quality model. The rotor animation is also terribly bad. Game looks like a helicopter … In my opinion, we have to wait for the developer (Asobo) to make the helicopters in high quality.

Yeah, I am waiting to see more videos where we can see some actual helicopter behavior. I’m not even talking about the animations. That can be fixed. But they are not behaving the way we expect them to behave. So far it all looks like low-stall-speed fixed wing aircraft.

You’re right. It has nothing to do with the flight physics of the helicopter …

We have not released any full photos of our model yet. Just teaser images. There are paid addons that don’t have textures or models the caliber of what we’re working on. We know we will have to do tuning on the flight model, that’s what testers are for - we have a few more internal milestones then …

Helicopters are a must
