Spitfire Simpilot tries to fly a helicopter - DCS

Well done on the attempt! RC helicopters aren't easy either :wink: Like a sim one only has visual and aural cues to fly those too, no seat of the pants physics helping out. 🍻

Thanks!  Looking forward to getting to grips with it.  Must be a great feeling to have full mastery of it and to put those skids exactly where you want them.

Yes I can imagine an RC helicopter takes some real skill.  I remember as a kid going to the RC club with my dad and the chopper guys would be so focused on practising the hover which is something I can totally appreciate!
