New Beta - Helicopter Flight

Postby canuck21a » Thu Apr 04, 2019 4:34 pm

Hello,
I thought I would take the time today to relay my experience with this simulator to date.
I have been with MSFS, XPlane, etc. for several years. I will not express how many !

For all those years I have yet to experience what I would call a controlled helicopter flight; that is, the ability to fly more or less straight and level at a more or less constant speed at more or less the same heading without having to constantly fiddle with the controls. This is something I saw in a film with a pilot flying a Bell 47 and I was astonished.

Today using my Saitek X52 and the B-407 I accomplished, for me, the impossible. I flew on a relatively constant heading at a stable speed and at a relatively stable altitude with hands off.

Then with small adjustments I was able to descend to the airport and come to a non-catastrophic landing.

Thanks for the wonderful experience.
