    oh, I'd also say that in public servers, if you are still learning, use supply helis and transport supplies to bases, i feel you get more appreciation for that. not only that, but you can only carry one passenger, and people tend to be much friendlier when they're on their own 😀

    Tip for console players, I changed my bindings to set collective up on R2/RT, collective down on L2/LT. And anti-torque (pedals/rudder) controls to L1/LB and R1/RB. This feels much more intuitive for me and these are the helicopter controls from GTA5 (where I got my helicopter flying experience from).

    We always need more supply pilots in WCS servers and it's a great way to practice due to the almost unlimited supplies at main base, making crashes less devastating to one's team

    One tip is to use auto hover and it's basically doing a flair for you, just practice the distance it takes. it's flair on easy mode :D what i do is just press Autohover and then just use collective and nothing else to control height of landing

    I am so confused, in my settings I cannot seem to uncouple the keys from mouse. Either I have mouse control all cyclic as well as WASD. How did you stop the mouse from controlling cyclic up and down as well? how did you bind antitorque to AD.
