Microsoft flightsim is great and realistic. Use the bell 206. or download

an
r-22 addon from simviation


Microsoft Flightsim is nowhere near approaching realistic in its flight
models of any helicopter.

- c of g appears to be behind the tail
- can't autorotate
- flaring doesn't reduce descent
- low rotor RPM doesn't affect lift, doesn't cause nose-down pitch
- descent rate far too high on low collective
- translational lift, VRS, t/r VRS, flap-back, and lots of other stuff
not modelled

etc, etc..

It's basically a plane that can take off vertically, not at all like a
helicopter.

Andrew
