Adding helicopter's to SB for better helicopter immersion and a better helicopter grind

I said exactly why I don’t have much time in RB/Sim in helicopters.

You don’t have ANY time in sim.

if you spent any time in sim you’d see that heli pilots games consist of fighting other helis, planes, capping, scouting and occasionally killing tanks…

you should try it.

Why you attack? He just sad its a good idea wich is true.
Maby he doesnt have much time in sim, but what is so bad about it? If he has a opinion about something hes free to tell. After all if helis were added we can get new players in the game wich is good for everyone.
And if you see a player that wanna play sim you shouldnt attack him because he might be unskilled.

just pointing out that far too many people post they ‘had an amazing idea!’ but don’t have the knowledge or experience to back it up…

Maps are too big, helicopters are too slow, planes kill the low ones, TY-90s kill the high jets…

Highlighting someone’s zero game time for something they’re advocating isn’t an ‘attack’

I don’t know the specifics of WT Heli flights models but in RL I do fly General Aviation Airplanes and I’m a Glider flight instructor, I was always surprised how much quicker helicopter pilots are to take mastering of gliders (they requires a lot of rudder work) while all other pilots including military do struggle for a while to coordinate with rudder.

So one day I decided to invest some (a lot!) money to get 2 hrs of helicopter training in a Robinson R22, I was surprised how easy the transition was in only 2 hrs I was able to hover and transition to forward flight and back to hover holding it as precisely as I wanted. Anyway all of this rant to say that WT give me the best heli feeling based on my RL limited experience in Simulation mode I ever experienced in a sim including DCS and it is a damn waste that there isn’t a good way to use helis in a Simulation mode.

Make it a new mode such as Heli only EC or implement the more complete and promising mode voted by this topic but PLEASE GIVE US A WAY TO USE HELIS!
You invested a lot of work on modeling those let them fly
