Tried it last night for the first time. Not easy, you constantly have to watch your input, but that´s rather normal if you are unfamiliar with it I suppose. Managed to do a few skid-landings wothout crashing, properly set up controls, but the secret of successfully hovering still eludes me.

Jumped into the good old Shark online to watch a few people trying out the Huey - some funny / chaotic time on the server.

 

very wild baby she is, but me likey! biggrin.gif

Got it yesterday. I love it. It's slow, finicky, and has happily sent me plummeting to a fiery grave more times in the last 12 hours than I care to recall, but I love the Huey. There's nothing like the sound of that 2-bladed propeller cutting through the air over your head, and I find that I'm really liking the gunship setup.

 

Made me appreciate the hell out of the Ka-50 though. I'll never be able to fly it again without thinking how lucky I am to have coaxial rotors or 4 channels of autopilot to keep me flying without feeling like I'm balancing on the tip of a needle.

Just purchased it.

 

(edit: later update)

 

Flew it about some on a few different Multiplayer servers, both with the rudder trim and autopilot cheats and also without. I only AutoStart'ed it. Once in the air and up a little ways it flies fairly stable. Flew under the power lines a few times. Anybody try flying through a railroad tunnel? Ground hover by me at takeoff is not very steady and a nice easy does it landing is going to take some work. I have the 3 CH amigos controllers. I set a plus 30 curve for the cyclic both axis and the collective and the rudder at plus 10. I used the same CH Control Manager profile I am using for the Ka-50. Am working on creating a separate Huey profile.

 

One sortie out and about the entire rotor came off in one piece and went flying off into never-never-land like a UFO. I was on an Aussie server, so my contribution to their boomerang.

 

It took me almost a year to get fairly good in the Ka-50.

 

Huey will take some fine tuning by me. I like it!

 

I will spend time in the training missions and reading the forums.

Of course.. got it!!

 

Put a server up with nothing but the Hueys to fly..

 

Was interesting to see some that can fly it like they been born for it..

In time.. sigh.. time.. patience...
