do you use a stick with rudder control?  if not you will have a hard time taking of and landing.  Also, change your realism control settings:  

General 85%
P Factor 85%
Torque 80%
Gyro 100%

Try that and adjust those settings to your liking.  I find it much easier.  However, I haven't really had a good landing yet.  It still takes practice.

Yeah, helis are an altogether different thing.  I've only tried one so far.  Did land it OK, but I was definitely have some problems.
300,000 KM/S - Its not just a good idea, its the law.

You might want to check out:

http://www.hovercontrol.com/

A cool site with lots of FS chopper related stuff - help, tuition, scenery (Some GREAT chopper specific bases & camps), & a whole host of choppers to download.

In fact I've just convinced myself to go there on the hunt in a minute LOL.

Cheers,

TSC.

Inverted heli's - the only way to cut the garden  ;D

To be honest I never fly the heli's, but I love some of the 'bush' type outposts that hovercontrol have - who say's you always need a runway?

Cheers,
