There seems to be dozens of videos around that MSFS2024 global preview event. I'm sure there are many other simmers like me who can't or don't want to watch them all.

So any recommendations on a handful of the most valuable videos would be highly appreciated.

Thank you!

Eh they have all been the same curated sound bites.

The best one I've seen is by a guy called Capt Canada. It's a stream and unfortunately it's ridiculously long but he's amusing, coherent and interesting.

 

 

Videos wise I particularly liked the interviews, especially the ones with Seb where he gets into technical details about the core simulation improvements:

And articles wise, these were good summaries:

MS/Asobo also have this page where they are collecting videos and articles: https://www.flightsimulator.com/msfs2024-preview-round-up/

No they haven't.

Are video previews of the helicopters?

While no video footage, the Helisimmer article talks about them a lot.

I haven't found any videos dedicated to just helicopters, but several of the people did record some footage of them flying them, just have a skip around.

I found that article before, but I didn´t find a video in it, is there one?

There's nothing on any footage of helicopters that will actually show anything in particular. Assessing flight dynamics on a video is pretty much impossible. You need to get your hands on the controls and see how it goes. Not to mention all footage would be from the inside and that doesn't help either.

It's cool to watch but doesn't really help in trying to find out how it feels. Unfortunately, the amount of time we had was not a lot so I can't make a proper assessment either at this time. I did found a possible bug, though.
