Landing with the Huey

Firepower01 · 01-18-2010, 02:43 PM

I've been practicing for a few weeks now and I've gotten pretty decent. I'm having lots of trouble with landing though.

Before I go in for my landing approach I'll designate a place I want to land, though almost every time I'll go right over it or crash into a tree or something like that. If I set my throttle to 0 and try to come in I have almost no speed and my tail starts to go down.

And is it possible to land on uneven terrain without spazzing out on takeoff and crashing into a tree?

On uneven terrain, it's best to just hover a little off the ground than land plop on it.

It's weird how some people are having such hard time learning to fly

What are you using to fly? I have found the keyboard&mouse the best and easiest way to fly helicopters in PR

Yes, Mouse and Keyboard is the way to go.

Its so easy, and if you land don't turn your throttle to 0, because you will go down sideways, just ''tap'' S so you will come down straight, also land chopper like a plane.

why land it like a plane, that'd cause extreme noobness and encourge the sue of planes as transport.... wait a minute thats a good idea!
parachute down onto a crate pick up a crewman or something and your on your way!

I use the arrow keys to fly. I'll give the trapping my throttle key a go too, thanks for the advice.

THe best use of the arrow keys is for flips

Seriously, go about 200 ft up, tilt the heli on its side and immediately press and hold the down arrow

spinny!

Hueys are the best for begginers easy to take off and you can really slam them to the ground when landing.
