Helicopters are bouncing and jumping around causing instant crashes

I solved the problem by doing a free flight on a high altitude airport: ZUBD

I got this error after my helicopter bounced several times and crashed

Same problem here. I play on XBox Series X, and until last week, the helicopters worked fine. I founded a company and suddenly, the helicopter started bouncing. Made my reputation plummet from A to low C.
Would you please see to fix this bug, because I am afraid it could use you lots of clients.

Can you provide more details? Were you having the issue in career mode with the h125? Doing a free flight in a high altitude airport presumably with the h125 fixed the issue when you went back to career mode?

It seems to not work for me. Did you do anything other than start and fly at high altitude?

After purchasing the first helicopter, H125, the problem of jumps, both in career mode and in free flight; before, it had never happened. After flying with H125 on ZUBD, one of the highest airports, the problem disappeared, both in free flight and in career

Interesting, how did you come up with the idea? I tried flying with the H125 from ZUBD, but unfortunately I still get the bounces. The helicopter bounces anytime it’s on the ground. I did a hot start from the runway and was able to get in the air before the helicopter crashed. Then I landed at ZUBD, but as soon as I am on the ground, the H125 bounces again for no reason. It seems like the bounces are smaller than before so maybe it did something. Still enough to crash in career mode though.

The idea came to me reading the various posts: I guessed that the problem was caused by something related to the changes in altitude. After the free flight done on ZUBD, there were no more jumps; I hope that you too can solve the problem

Ok, I tried again flying from ZUBD in the H125, but this time I did a cold start at the ramp instead of a hot start on the runway. And that fixed it! No more bouncing during that flight and no more bouncing in the career freelance mission I tried right after that! :smiley: :tada: :confetti_ball:
Thanks for coming up with this clever fix. Well done!!

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

Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:

If relevant, provide additional screenshots/video:
• My issue is only happening to the Airbu H125, Bell Model 407, CowanSim H125, and the Guimbal Cabri G2. The other helicopters are fine.
I have the issue when going into Free Flight and select the helicopter and then try to configue it. It will bounce all over the place while you are trying to configure it.
I am having this issue all over in the game not just in my Career area.
This is the most frustrating thing!
