Facing into the wind for hover seems pretty important for a lot of reasons. I was watching tutorials on vortex ring state and loss of tail-rotor effectiveness, and cross/tailwinds in a hover seem to be a factor in both of those conditions.

These videos are awesome. Thanks so much!

Your vids about helicopters in MSFS are awesome man, really helped allot

Very useful, thanks for this series!

Another great video. Thanks!!

Why hover when you can crash your helicopter in 27462 takeoff attempts?

Thank you so much for this video!

The problem I’m having is the collective is too sensitive. The window between too much and not enough is really small. If you have any idea on how to adjust this that would be great.

You the man

Great lesson, also the previous one too. Thank you. Should I worry about trimming the heli when I practice hovering?

Generally, no, in hover you're going to be making lots of small corrections around the center of the stick, so trim won't be helpful. It's more something you engage in cruise so you don't need to have constant forward pressure on the cyclic.

Trimming could be the next tutorial? I have no idea how to set it up in FS. Great tut this, btw.

Also, care to share your sensitivity settings. I have now idea how to set it up best for FS.

Hi P Gatcomb! Nice video, will you do any GA tutorials on the new planes from the 40th anniversary version?

I assume this is with the helicopter assists in MSFS turned _off?_

I use the Xbox Gampad and after a few seconds the cloche freezes making me fall. And if I manage not to fall after a few minutes it still happens. With planes it has never happened and I play it since the release date 2020

Good tutorial, but 20-30 hours to learn it? That’s without VR! With VR, it’s far, far less. Helicopters and VR go hand in hand.
