I just won this game in a competition by Bohemia Int. I was just wondering, are you playing this with Joystick and if so, is it a huge difference? Also, what heli is this?

[frooglepete]

@FrigginTiiXGaming Yes. As I said in one of the other vids I flew this with a Thrustmaster T.1600 joystick connected to Thrustmaster Warthog throttles for the collective and Saitek rude pedals. Huge difference from what? I've actually never tried flying without a joystick or yoke attached,

@frooglepete I was thinking if it's a huge difference from just using a keyboard which i am currently using. Also do you happen to know if the Saitek Cyborg V1 Flightstick is any good? It's the one i'm getting and i'm not really looking for anything "hardcore".

[frooglepete]

@FrigginTiiXGaming Yes, it would be a massive difference. There is no way you could fly in expert mode on a keyboard since you wouldn't have fast and fine enough control over the collective and cyclic controls. The flightstick I don't have any experience with - but it should be fine for what you are looking for. Be sure to checkout the frooglesim channel for more flight stuff.

@hellcatdave1 You can yes - it's no where near as extensive as some add-on aircraft for FSX, or of course DCS Black Shark. It's a nice balance between game and sim.

[hellcatdave1]

@frooglepete So, do you flip switches and levers on the ingame model, like in Blackshark and FSX?

[frooglepete]

@motokid032 Pretty well - it's not perfect, and certainly not Black Shark, but it's not bad either. I think there is a demo yes - check on Bohemia Interactive's site.

So how well is the torque modeled in this sim?I have always been a major X-plane fan..Can you download a demo?

[frooglepete]

@FSXFaulder frooglesim - but you already found it. Sorry for the delay in responding.

[frooglepete]

@TheBajhuj Wow - that was uncalled for. Your subsequent block however was not.
