But... aren't they too solid?

 

I mean, I'm flying in Mi-8, and just touching a tree bough and BOOM!

 

Am I wrong, I remember, in one of Wags' videos, the helicopter was loosing blades and crashing, right?

The matter of speed and part of your chopper/plane which hits the tree is doing the effect.

 

Last time I touched a tree, the Hokum lost his right stubby wing and 2 Rotorblades.

 

Try it out, I did it a few times now more or less deliberately :music_whistling:

Never parachute into an area you've just bombed

You never have too much fuel, unless you burn.

yes I noticed this too, the chopper blade can clip the tree or lamp post and boom you are dead!

I guess it is an Alpha and I am sure it will get fixed.

 

But is it not great that NAP is sooo hard!

I actually thought it was good and funny I lost wings, which would be kind of real wouldn't it? Anyone seen a car that has hit a tree? There's only one winner and it has leafs!

I think its just catching it right, I have been practising tight LZ landings with both choppers and its easy to clip a blade or take an inch off of the tail rotor.

This video here I loose a skid before I later crash headlong into a tree

Speed does seem to play a crucial part in the damage you get from a collision with a tree: at very low speeds (hovering in a helicopter), you can "push" against a tree, and even "destroy" it, while clipping a leaf at 100+ knots will likely result in a fireball.

It would be nice if the leaves could be more "transparent" to collision, or at least not destroy your aircraft instantly.

 

In fact, leaves are so solid right now, you can land on top of trees!
