Hi Folks,
OK stick with me here, the R22. Why? because For those who are going through heli training, the only R22 available in any sim worth taking a look, is in FSX which is out of date and the physics are pretty bad. It would be great for me and possibly others to have a realistic chopper trainer, akin to the plane trainer, the Yak. Although I am aware that it's Digital Combat Simulator, not Civilian Trainer Simulator!
There are a few armies that use the R22:https://www.airliners.net/photo/Dominican-Republic-Army/Robinson-R-22-Beta-II/589681 though.
I would certainly buy the module to familiarize myself with the controls for check rides in real life. I recently took a few hours flight instruction in an R22 and was hovering, albeit not perfectly, after two hours. I would put that down to DCS and using the Huey. It really helped me understand the more complex anti-torque flight dynamics/etc.
Anyone else out there accumulating their heli hours in a Robinson R22, that feel the same way?
