Possible FlyUK/EHM joint event

<< < (2/3) > >>

EHM-1358 Tim:
I'd join if I'm not away or busy.

Word of advice, when your in hover don't over control your stick try to 'think the stick about' with small adjustments.
If you using a heli with struts ask to fly directly to you parking, get into a hover about 20ft above, slowly reduce your collective, if you start dropping to quickly, just increase the collective, remember to always keep your eyes on the horizon.

If your in a heli with a landing gear, treat the landing like a plane landing and flare onto the runway.

EHM-0654 Murray:
Well, I can fly the wee Robinson quite well, and I DLed an even smaller helo that I can get up and down and fly in reasonably straight lines ;D

But I have problems translating those m4d 5k1llz to anything bigger (other than the really big helos... I can fly the skycrane reasonable well as well...)

Now I have a proper rudder pedal set, maybe I'll be a little better...

EHM-1883 Matt:
Thanks Tim for the advice! I think I'll practice a bit first though, just so I don't end up crashing on the event (it's happened twice now, and I don't want to make it a tradition!)

EHM-0641 Rico:
If you want a heli that is easy to fly in FS, has magnificent hover capabilities, and flight dynamics, then I would recommend the "Aerospatiale AS365N3 Dauphin", also known as the Dolphin HH-65 USCG....

Ya' know.. that big orange bird the the US coast guard flies ;)

Here's the HC page for them: http://64.34.169.161/cgi-bin/ifolio/imageFolio.cgi?search=Dolphin&cat=&bool=and

And here a pic for the unknown under you :P


EHM-1343 Jonathan:
Fly the EHM Heli's!!!  The A109 is supper smooth although a bit hard to master, and the Bell 407 (i think thats the designation :s) is very stable in all phases of flight, most notably the hover;) allthough it is more 'functional' than a 'good looking'
