hi all,does anyone know where i can get some basic information on how to fly the helicopter?i feel like i am trying to learn to ride a bicycle compared to the planes.

Pop over to Jordan Moores website called HoverControl. Everything you could wish to know is located there.http://www.hovercontrol.com/RgdsAidihttp://www.vfr-flightcenter.com/avsim_sig.jpg

Yep, I second that recommendation. Jordan's site can even provide you with online one-on-one helo training with their virtual certified pilots. A wonderful site for anyone who wishes to join the MS helicopter community.Another good helicopter site that has been around for a long time is Hoversafe. Sorry I don't have a link for it.-Lindy :-rotor :-wave

Hi Clayton,The helicopter side of the hobby can be a great new challenge, and there are lots of great people involved with it. Feel free to stop by. The URL to the other helicopter related site (Hoversafe) that Lindy mentioned is:http://members.shaw.ca/hoversafe/Hoversafe.htmGood Luck!

thanks guys i will check it out,i did manage to fly abit in the helicopter yesterday, it is a great sight to see yourself up around 1000' and see all those AI's coming in to land, especially at runway 29 at KOAK.
