I have tried everything to my knowledge to fix the fact that it flies sideways. Roughly 25 degrees offset, is an unacceptable flight characteristic for a top-tier helicopter. I regret ever getting it, it’s awkward to fly, and even messes with your eyes after a while. It’s never pointed at it’s direction of travel, always to the left. I understand certain flight characteristics demand accuracy, but this is ridiculous, they do not fly this offset, and crooked in real life. Can someone please look into this, and please center the flight model. Thank you.
Turn on manual roll control and tilt the helicopter slightly left, this is a characteristic of all non-coaxial helicopters.
Yet all the AH-1 do not share this attribute, it even hovers crooked.
Thank you for the input, but this heli should level out side to side with a trim option at least. What a horrible flyer, I’m sorry I ever wasted my time with it. The AH-1Z is also a “Non-Coaxial” and does not have this issue.
tbf the Viper has it’s own problems
Im sorry to wake the topic up but I still would love confirmation from a real pilot how “real” this is.
Yes I do know that standar main+tail rotor helicopter configurations have SOME natural tendency to yaw, yet i’ve never seen one as strong as in the AH-64/MH60, which is also completely missing in the AH-1/UH-1 series. Am I expected to believe these helicopters truly have THIS much yaw in real life, but only these 2 airframes?
