Looking forward to the DVD version! In the meantime, let's see some videos from the "Steamers"!

Aerofly FS 2 Robinson R22 Helicopter Released!

-
I guess it's not appearing until about 6pm GMT? Seems to be the usual with steam.
-
Good catch, found the mistake and corrected it. Stay tuned for the next update.
Wow, it is not just the R-22, there are lots more updates and changes in the CHANGE LOG Gonna load up the Lear and see the new crew alerts.

Can't see the F-15 gear VR handle fix in the changelog?

Oh man, I got my motion seat just in time
Plus I have Florida, but not gone there once, been waiting!

I had a Steam account with FSX and daily had to put up with irritating downloads all of which where of no interest to me whatsoever and continued to fill up my working hard drive.

Yes, but now they have a download for which I am most interested in, and yet nothing is going into my hard drive. lol

I bloody hate steam. So what’s the process. I have steam left open and Aerofly set to high priority update. Will it download automatically once available or do I have to go in and manually refresh to find the update?
-
I think if you have Automatic Updates - High Priority selected and your PC is turned on with an internet connection the download will start without any prompting. If you attempt to start Aerofly FS2 before the update in completed Steam will notify you that an update is in progress. You can monitor the download to watch the progress and the estimated completion time.

Ray
Maybe someone will post when the download is available from Steam.

Changed the title of the thread from “Aerofly FS2 Robinson R22 Helicopter Releasing Today on Steam!” to “Aerofly FS 2 Robinson R22 Helicopter Released Today on Steam!”. -
Profi mode... damn

Profi mode... damn
Hence the name

In order to fly the R22 realistically, how ho I have to assign my axes...?
Elevator > CyclicPitch?
Aileron > CyclicRoll?
Throttle > Collective?
Rudder > TailRotor?
And I seem to remember that you have to inverse the Collective, so moving it up should bring you down and moving it down should bring you up... Right...?
And what about Throttle: I have no axis left...?
Concerning the other improvements: there was one change I liked:
"Added Aircraft selection menu remembers last selected repaint for each aircraft"
Awesome! However, it doesn't work...? Whenever I go back to a previous selected (and loaded!) plane I get the default livery again and not the one I chose last.

First flight in profi done with a successful autorotation at the end. Very nice! Well done IPACS. What a great entrance into helicopter simulation. Really impressive work.

Yes exactly like that!
You can invert the collective by moving the joystick axis in a different direction during the assignment.
You fly with the axis inverted or have it the same way like your normal aircraft throttle, depends on your taste and configuration.
I use a throttle quadrant which I clamped next to my chair, immitating the motion of the collective lever in the cockpit. Therefor my increasing direction is still the same but I flipped it geometrically by 180 degrees; levers now pointing away from me, not towards me when at idle/collective down
