Helicopters are bouncing and jumping around causing instant crashes

Bouncing started again this morning. Sigh. All but one S&R missions have disappeared again.

Yes, now every helicopter mission is bouncing! can not play at all!!!

same here :woozy_face:

Problem back again for me today, did at least 5 SAR - Hoist missions yesterday, and been doing other helicopter missions fine. I’m on the beta, did an update a few days ago, but all of a sudden it’s back when nothing else changed. I can relate to others that saw their rep crash from almost topped off on “S” down to B. Not to mention the MILLIONS… MILLIONS of dollars spent repairing/selling aircraft in hopes of fixing problems. I hope they put several millions back into all our bank accounts and top off our rep. This is ridiculous and to say its frustrating is a complete understatement!

Bouncing has stopped today, Maybe Tuesday and Wednesdays are good days!

Back to bouncing on Thursday. Very Strange.

Heli bounced out of the hanger again.

After my latest S&R in the Draco I got bouncing after the mission ended.

And this is the start of my next one.

Im having the same issue with bouncy helicopters both in career and free flight. I basically had to stop my helo cargo company

Why have use put this unwanted feature back into the game my whole helo company wiped out iam deleting the game its just disappointment after disappointment

I had not suffered this bug until today. I have tried several helis, both in freeflight and in mission mode; with official SU1 and with beta. All, absolutely all of them bouncing around.
The issue does not seem to happen with airplanes, only helis.
It is not only when taking off, it also happens when you land after flying. You can hover, and even be “light on the skids” without problems, it starts as soon as you let weight on the ground.

After a small game update yesterday, helicopters are back to bouncing around for me again. I haven’t hard this issue for several weeks so I thought it had been fixed.

Still messed up nothing is fixed.


I finally got it to work for me again.

I picked a random helicopter in free flight. Had it start on the runway and got it into the air. I was able to land normally so ended the flight and it all worked for me in career mode as normal.

Can anyone already say if this problem is fixed in SU2 beta? I couldn’t find anything in the change log but I might have missed it.

I just read through the whole thing and didn’t see anything about it.

Finally a day with SAR missions again in the map… and again the heli bouncing around.
Seriously, are these obvious and game-ruining bugs that hard to solve?

Realy? Since November and still not solved. It just happend again to me. Unable to use helicopters since today. yesterday night it was working.
I go to play Star Citizen instead until you solved your stuff. Seams to be a less frustrating choice

Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?
• Xbox x

  • access to career mode
  • Select a mission with my h125 or standard one
  • Helicopter is jumping everywhere and cause a mission failure

I have deleted the saved data and did the sync several time. I’ve tried also to reinstall the game but nothing happened . I’ve been waiting for 5 months the resolution

Please fix the issue

I can’t believe this is still broken in career mode. then not to mention i upgraded to aviator package and the H225 collective is so broken. the is getting so frustrating. I keep giving it another chance. about try a diffrent sim.

Same issue. I just bought an H125 and was looking forward to do a freelance SAR mission after they finally reappeared on the map (all SAR missions in the europe were gone for a couple of days). But my helicopter just bounces around and crashes on startup. Even happened in the hangar. I tried a few missions, same thing happens, and as my reputation was going down, I stopped trying. This is ridiculous!
