something is wrong with my game.. when i try to fly a helocopter.. it goes crazy! the planes fly well, just the helo is phyco! on combat flight sim.2 the helo's fly fine.. i dont know what to do, ive messed around witht the sensitivities, nothing works, ive set them the the same as CFS2........does anyone have a solution??

Turn your realism settings down a bit. Also, helos require a lot more practice to get the hang of, so don't worry if t takes a while

There is nothing wrong with your game.  The helos are very difficult to fly if you're transitioning from fixed wing aircraft.

Rule #1.  Forget everything you learned about flying.  

Rule #2.  Your throttle acts as your collective.  This controls your vertical flight.

Rule #3.  Your yoke or joystick will act as your cyclic.  This controls your lateral movement.  (e.g. forward, backward, left, right, etc.)

Rule #4.  Your rudder will control your rotation.
