This is beta file. Collision points and hitboxes need to be fixed still.
Better to share than store on hard drive.
If someone wants to improve something let me know.
Templates for pit or skins are available on pm request.
Aircrafts include cockpit files for C and B versions.
This is beta cockpit version. Not fully finished. So perhaps there wilbe update one day.
Flying.
As with all my previous helos flying is quite easy. With little practice you can even hoover. Without fake flaps and airbrakes.
Important here to control is using rudder and vector thrust control.
Normaly throtle vector control on 88-89 degree increase power 55% wait little and then increase to 100% and helo will take off nicely.
You can load some "cargo" weapons for eye candy flying, fuel tanks and snow skids for some versions.
