  • We're taking a look at the new release of the CowanSim Robinson R66 Turbine for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020. It's only been out for a few hours but I'll share my thoughts and some footage of the helicopter in VR and we'll take a look at the exterior and interior modeling. I also talk about the options for the avionics and preview what the different settings allow you to use in Sim.

    Thank you for the first impressions, that was very quick but well done nonetheless :) I like the small panel and good visibility, looks very nice for sightseeing.

    Looks good, sounds good, I dont know if i need another helicopter but I'll probably end up with it at some point. Nice showing of the chopper!

      Thanks. You can always pretend it’s a “bush plane” and the it becomes a day one buy right? Hahaha. I think you’d like it and its ease of flight.

    I did buy Colwansim R66 they know helicopters that’s their niche I’ve other helicopters from them. They can be trusted and also a fare price all in all great value.

    The free heli is the R44, this one is the R66 maybe a bit bigger? A bit longer? I use the R44 sometimes with thr 3rd party flying physics addon and it's pretty stable helicopter when the flying addon isn't acting up weird, thank you for sharing, this release was a great new year surprise

    • @Blueecko

      Yeah. I believe I tried the UH-60 with airland FS and wasn’t a fan of having to run the external app and then remember to shut it off after. Probably why I never tried the R44.

    I'm still waiting for a helicopter that feels somewhat akin to DCS, that imo does helicopters better, but I've never actually flown one, so I couldn't say for certain. Something about the helicopters in DCS just "feels" right. By that I guess I mean there is enough risk to reward to make learning and flying the numbers worth doing. I just can't seem to find that in MSFS. I think a few have gotten close, namely the Flyinside helicopters. They all just seem too binary. Should I try this one next or just give it a pass given my search criteria? Sorry if that sounds blunt to the developers or yourself, but I have to imagine it's a limitation with MSFS, and the add-on developers are just doing their best.
    The other thought I had is that maybe these civilian helicopters really are just super user friendly and are THAT easy to fly. Mostly the Airbus H series helicopters, they have more auto pilot systems than I do fingers and toes it seems like. So the help in pilot work load in the civilian world might be something I'm not used to (if that's actually the case), when comparing it to the things I am used to like the old Mi-24's, and Mi-8's with some Apache and Blackshark thrown in there.

      There are quite a few Helicopters that feel great in the sim, Cowan typically does a great job at making them feel as true to life as you can get.
      I have flown Helicopters in real life, it has been some time, but I'd say just pick a chopper up in MSFS and go do some sight seeing or hop into a group flight. It will be much more fun then continuing to wait!

    Fantastic helicopter but should never be released on the xbox s...stuttering mess, i instantly loaded up the chinook from the same location and not one stutter, smooth as butter, so obviously this heli model is not functional on this console version.
