How do you fly the HELO in FG?

Featured Replies

Whenever I choose the Bo105 I can't start it's engine to fly it around, so I can't really tell if FGs helo flightmodel is any good.Help/hints appreciated!

"Start Turbine" is listed under Help > Aircraft Help (Functionkey 10 displays the menubar) as being the right curly-brace "}"; alternately, "Shutdown Turbine" is "{". Hope this helps.

Figured that part out (starting the turbines) but are there any useful tips to actually flying this thing? Obviously, page down lifts the machine and the mouse movements left to right turn the machine, forward or backward tilt the machine longitudinally.I'm using the keyboard and a mouse. I have decreased mouse sensitivity via the mouse options in Windows Control Panel. It still seems way too sensitive, as it does for certain other aircraft models. The crash model looks real, bent rotor blades and all, along with the sounds that makes you wish you'd never gone near the thing.I once saw a chopper flip upside down in real life - not a pretty scene. And here, I get to see that a lot until some kind soul offers a few condolences along with a useful hint or two?Please?
