Aerofly FS 2 Robinson R22 Helicopter Released!

The VKB pedals are great for helicopters, really sensitive around the centre. Again, not cheap, but if you already have a decent joystick, you probably don't want to ditch that and splash out a grand on helicopter controls. I've taken the big spring out of my warthog joystick, which makes it much better as a cyclic, and still has the four small centring springs so it works ok with fixed wing.

I used my warthog throttle as a collective for a long time, reversing it so it pulls back to raise it and that was quite good. earlier this year I got a proper Robinson R-22 collective from OE-XAM and it is much better, but you have to be properly into helicopters to justify the expense. Worth every penny I've spent though for the kit I use.

Hi everyone.Im new to the R 22 helicopter.Is there a way to set the controls for a beginner or novic.How is that achieved.I tried for over an hour to set my joystick and tried figuring out the easy set up.Thanks for anyone that can fill me in on how to fly like a novice.

Was ich fast vergessen hätte zu sagen! Absolut super!

Das fliegen im Profimodus erinnert mich an die Worte meines alten Fluglehrers: "Marco - immer ins T-Shirt kotzen - niemals ins Cockpit!" ( Alter Pilotentrick )

Just tried R22, just had my best chopper experience.

Thank you for bringing the masterpiece.

I've flown one in real life. Amazingly easy to fly.

I have the version I bought directly from Aerofy, not Steam or DVD. Will this be released soon for us that don't use Steam?

Thanks

Yes. Please give us some time to do so.

Thank you kindly!

When will the DVD version R22 update be available?

I have to admit, I was feeling pretty good, having mastered the helicopter in just a few hours or less. Then I noticed the "profi" button, and the reality is that I won't be seeing my family any time soon.

Seriously, what a great addition to a wonderful simulator. The attention to detail is obvious, and the immersion of taking off from skyscrapers in LA, or the mountain top at Schilthorn in Switzerland is just fantastic.

Thanks so much for all the hard work.

Sounds awesome. How do we get this for the Mac version?

Cheers

Doug

Thanks very much Jan, that is indeed most helpful!

Much appreciate your time in answering!

Keep well

Doug

Just flown this for the first time, and I have to say: what an utter delight! Beautiful little chopper, so easy to handle and especially to hover in.

There's a lot of places I'm going to explore now

Thanks for this nice heli!! I have no experience with it (in real) but it is so much fun!! First I tried the Easy mode. Instant fun. I did a short trip . Now I try to master the pro mode. Tippy toes!!! Thanks again team Ipacs!

Wow! I'm really looking forward to flying this baby, especially from KJRB, since I find myself looking over at the helipad several times a week, during my commute to work over the Brooklyn Bridge.

Those are some really nice paint schemes as well. That blue one just happens to be the exact color of my new car, so you know which one I'll be flying on my maiden flight

Thanks Ipacs!

Now, in my kid voice........ouu, ouu, can we get a Bell 407 next???
