Hey dude! This is the first vid of you I have watched. You're an incredible good teacher. I subscribed because you are one of the few people that makes xbox tut on how to fly a chopper. Thank you SO much!
@gamesmaster7891 LT on Xbox is L2 on PS3. Google image an xbox controller, the PS3 counterparts will be located in the same exact position as the xbox buttons.
Oh my god thank you, i just came to battlefield 3 about 3 days ago from Bad Company 2. I was quite good at flying in BC2. When i came to this every time i took off i was used to the old controls and instantly crashed!
Just saying: The us chopper your flying is the viper, the other chopper you were talking about is the littlebird. And the russian chooper is the havoc :)

i played this mission and all the times i was the pilot the helicopter crashed xD and finally after 3-4 restarts the other guy was flying the helicopter and we finished the mission.
Press down to look around? FFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU- didn't know that! Even for the jet! (i'm retard) i played the game for like 3 months in total and i didn't know about that! (Facepalm)
Need a decent pilot? add me on ps3 : bigman65lol. You won't be dissapointed with my piloting skills. Just mention heli in freind request and I'll know
I love the video. I wish I knew about this level earlier. After the campaign I thought you had to just learn it in multiplayer, rolled into the ground 2 games not long after I got in, I must of looked silly.
Im an alright pilot, although I need to learn how to turn smoothly. I know how to do the roll/turns but not as smoothly as you do in this video, btw thanks for the tips, never knew about the spec ops mission :D
I was so used to play with the chopper in other games that I only managed to play good with the Viper when I changed to southpaw in the Heli and Jet stick controls. So, if you can't get it right even with the video, try to do that.
Great video! I play on PC & I'm still trying to decide if I like flying with the Xbox controller or my joystick. I like the feedback on the Xbox one...my current joystick doesn't have that...
@jamiegill1000 lol i was practicing like allot for flying jets, i spent the whole round in conquest flying(and crashing) jets n the final result, Kill=0 , Death=11, Score=1482 xDD thats why i like bf3, u score not just by shooting and killing.
Thank you SO MUCH. Whenever I got into a helicopter, I'd end crashing straight into the ground or a tower or something, and found myself getting shot out of the sky frequently. Now, I go on killing sprees whenever I hop into a chopper! Thanks.
lol people are gonna be mad when a bunch of noobs start playing on chistmas, lol like me. but it could be worse. i could be playing *gulp* cock of poopy modern gay fuck stupid 3
@KimoCollins Don't be such a fucking baby, I got it for Christmas, And I bet you any money, I will take 10 minutes for me to know how to play. Go back to CoD and shut the fuck up.
wow another awesome vid, it like every time i watch one i lean something new oww that is the point of the vid, also i really dont ever remember flying a heli on missions before another good vid>
@kbrkbr4 BF3 controls are ridiculously easy, the only hard thing is theres a 180 degree learning curve, but once you actually try to understand, its easy. I learned on my 5th try.
@bface20, Maybe DICE should take a page from Treyarch's book and include a "combat training" mode with every map available and (optional) bot players.
I don't get why DICE never did a training mode where you can practice flying :/ it sucks because they just throw noobs like me out into the field, where of course time after time i crash and burn which just ends in frustration and embarrassment.
Thank you so much for this. I haven't tried the co op mission yet unfortunately. I have had a LITTLE practice with the choppers on Caspian Border which gave me some practice. it's just hard to crack out the expert maneuvers in the middle of an intense multiplayer match.
All the good information is drowned by the sheer number of tuts from console.Like you need a tut for console its so lame and easy.Look at me im pwning 6 v 6.
I play BF3 on PC and I was just wondering if on XBox/PS3 do you have to continue to apply throttle to keep the choppa in the air or can you let go and it will hold it at the same height?
@chocodudeftw ya slightly... if you were able to stabilize the chopper well then you just have to adjust it slightly once every 5secs maybe but i guess if you do it well there should be a point where you shouldnt have to adjust anything
I am wondering ... if i might be able to fix the Heli Control to be something like Ace Combat Controls ... i tried all the configurations ... and i still end up kissing the ground lol
