Helicopter landing tips?

Civili Guest

Im on the helicopter mission, where im supposed to land in different spots. Ive managed to land in that big green sqare, but the additional sqares are almost impossible to land on :S

Im using f1-f4 buttons, + the arrow keys. Is there something ive missed out on? Im either coming in too fast, to slow or to much of course. Any tips would be appriciated..

You really need a joystick with rudder control.

Damn 😞 Which one would you guys reccomand?

I think any joystick with throttle control and rudder control would do the job, but i prefer the saitek x52, others prefer other joysticks so it's always better if you read reviews.

I personally Own the X52 and can tell you it is an awesome joystick. I think there might be more realistic choices for helocopters though.

if you are on a budget, the logiteck attack 3d pro is good.

helocopters are only supposed to Hover at about 10-15ft. Come in low and slow. Flare to come to a hover and then keep in mind most newer copters have there throttle incorperated with the pitch of the blades. And its almost impossible to fly realisticly without rudder pedals.
