Robinson R22 Helicopter Simulator

[flyhelos2]

PLEASE tell me you can still take it out of the box and actually FLY IT!!!!

[Gairlochan]

Great 3D graphics, though they're pretty low definition compared to those on my X-Plane flight sim which, for much less money, runs nicely on my Mac Pro and gives me peripheral vision (which you seem to lack ) at the turn of a head using TrackIR, allows me a choice of dozens of different helos and hundreds of aeroplanes, and lets me sit here all day practising. Your major benefit is the availability of real controls and instruments, but …

@Gairlochan

Should be running X-plane as the software..Insanely realistic helicopter flight characteristics, also going to have a very nice new R22 coming out for it.

[Gairlochan]

@motokid032 , I am running X-Plane … :-)

[shanerobertspilot]

@motokid032 Dreamfoil R22 + X-Plane 10 is going to be AMAZING!

[griffy1988]

graphics are shitttttttt

The SIM allows the pilot to train for scenarios that are dangerous to practice in the real helicopter. The "real" R-22 that is used in this FLYIT SIM has no engine, transmission, etc, and does not burn avgas. The average rental for a R-22 helicopter is USD 250.00 plus $60 or so for the instructor. The SIM costs only $100 per hour to rent, and the pilot can learn instrument procedures, emergency procedures, or even how to hover without spending $4 per minute. A good investment of money.

i found it

[JODEEMIX]

great, what the song music?

[haykodjan]

wich software are you using? elite, xplane, or fsx?

[mirtaet123]

@haykodjan FSX - see vid details.

[WilliamTheFar]

Its for people skurd to fly a real helicopter. Video games are real man!

[crossholmen]

Er det mulig å kunne komme å prøve?=)

[drahon45]

the only thing I don't get is why would any idiot turn a actual helicopter into a simulator, when you already have the real thing?

[mirtaet123]

@drahon45 Out of gas. ))

[adamgamedude]

@drahon45 for practice and safety

[freefallnut]

@drahon45 Economical trainer.

[drahon45]

@freefallnut Then there's one less R22 for the pilot to fly once he gets his license.

[freefallnut]

@drahon45 Airworthy R22's are at most flying schools when you qualify, and if you can afford to get airbourne every time you want some training, good on you. However, the simulator makes sense on a tight budget.

[steveecker]

@drahon45 I personally don't mind any particular idiot getting "hands on" experience and training in a real helicopter, crashing and dying. That's not my problem. But if I'm in my living room eating, watching tv, and said idiot crashes into my house and ruins my meal, well then ... We'll have a problem on our hands..

[klowneskate]

@drahon45 noob you need a ppl-h to fly private

[silentnodes]

@drahon45 the reason behind is ...

-It avoids danger and loss of life.

-The result of simulation can be studied under different conditions.

-It is cost effective(Does not cost much as the real experiment).

-The simulation can be operated more quickly than the actual system(Real experiment).

-If the actual experiment (real life) is too fast or too slow you can slow down and or make it operate more quickly to study it's behavior .............

[cessnaclub]

@drahon45 You fucking idiot its probably out of hours and it worth nothing!!!!! Might as well make something out of it.

[alitmz]

@drahon45 wow, you are really able to think outside the box!! Good for you! What's your IQ.. 43?

[Callabris]

@drahon45 because because it's cheaper and safer to start people training on simulators then the real thing. It's also usually a nice attraction at Air shows and other related events. Try looking up the prices for a rental and a one flight lesson. You will then appreciate Flight simulators a lot more.

[america4evr]

@drahon45 Practice, and anyone can fly this inexpensivly, and the parts are probably timed out also...

[mboy3515]

@drahon45 or maybe it days were up

[davidyaz]

hi can you tell me where can i find used electronic instruments with usb to make a heli flightsimulator.i have a crashed r22.thanks david

[notar1]

so which flight program does it use

[DayJetFan]

Nice, but why not actually fly the real thing?

[adster700]

How do you think pilots train?

[DayJetFan]

yeah good point.

[h3akalee]

Graphics look's like super mario brother's.

[camped69]

It's a training aide.

[Deanzsyclone]

cool vide, fucking annoying music. Sorry.

[PleaseCallMeV]

I went to the site, I would like to add this to my mansion room but how much? I can't navigate around the site. I am also going to be buying the Batmobile and hovercraft.

[magicfreak123]

This is to bulky for any type of simulation, why not cut off the tail? go to flyit(dot)com. They're the biggest names when it comes to the real helicopter simulation business (motion and everything!)

[PleaseCallMeV]

Good post, I agree

[magicfreak123]

Yes, I think this is pretty much a waste of $240K when you can buy a FULL FLEDGED commercial simulator, you know, those approved by the FAA for training and everything (anything approved by the FAA must be truly awesome)....for 1/4 of the price....check out flyit(dot)com for products and hovercontrol(dot)com for an awesome info on helicopter simulation.....this is a waste of money IMO.

[notar1]

thanx

[illosion]

lolol terrable music

[nzxtlexapc]

how much did it sell for?

[Fox250R]

why do ppl put such stupid fucking music on their vids...pathetic

[baller042124]

good song actualy

[LAsoccerLA]

what type of music then

[wheeler295]

What a waste. If you wanna fly an R22, fly one. Dont ruin a perfectly good helicopter for this.

[futureflyer16]

why the hell did u mess up a perfectly good r22 too make it into a sim....yikes

[miketacoma5]

Those trim strings are messing with my head.

[janosparag]

wow cool!!!

[markdanielbrooke]

how much??

[geddon436]

how much does one of those cost?
