As a combat flyer in ArmA 3, I highly recommend using the mouse controls as its the same as I'm used to. The minute movements you can make with a mouse can give finer control, and with a Little Bird and a lot of practice can be a great option for flying in tight places and emergency extractions of your salvage buddies when one of them just HAS to try his Deagle...
I actually hate the jumping in expansion. It can be abused so bad where you've got ppl hoping around the map for a speed boost. Really annoying during combat. Besides you can vault over fences
AmishZed no doubt but I love the way you play the game casually and without exploiting that’s why I’m glad I found your channel as I don’t use twitch but Ish you the goat !
Yes....I can confirm landing on slopes currently causes some issues...particularly loud and spectacular issues... being an unfortunate passenger of a certain someone's helicopter
I am an older guy that has bent/slow fingers so instead of using the pre-assigned keys or mouse I set the keys for manuvering to w=forward s=reverse a=pittch left d=pitch right, up arrow=ascend, down arrow=descend, left arrow=yaw left, right arrow=yaw right. The mouse needs to be used to look around still but once positioned for flight its no longer needed and allows for to handed operation of the controls, with the keys not being so crunched together it gives me a lot better/easier control.. some say thats cheating but if it were a real helicopter the mouse would not exist in the cockpit nor would the keys so punk it out your way as I will. Using the autopilot to learn how to fly assigning the keys as shown makes it a lot easier to understand up down and turn as a flight stick and foot controls would, it becomes easier once you practice awhile then shut off the autopilot and be very gentle with the up and down arrows as they are sencitive when auto is off. Hope that helps someone else, its made flying in DayZ a lot easier and huge fun for me.
Just recently got back into Day-Z. Not sure if people will find this easier. In the setting turn off 'Auto-Hover Off In Flight', especially useful for when landing. This means you manually engage and disengage hover X is the hot key but you can do it with F in cockpit as well. You can fly with it on and the helo you are flying will constantly try to correct your movements to restabilize. You can go quick but nowhere near max speed (which you can reach with it off). Also engage Hover after starting the engine then with Shift you can set the hight the helo will take off to, you can also do this when landing with Z to decrease the set altitude, to slowly go to the ground.
Haven't been able to find a single heli on the Expansion Server I have been playing on. Looking forward to finally getting to try one, will be great to fly over locations I am learning to see them from a difference perspective so I can learn more of the parts of Chernarus I don't already know well
a proper landing fit for a combat environment takes the least amount of time to go from flying to landed while keeping forward speed...no auto hover decent from space...if you can`t fly without auto hover guys go use the offline mode...a final tip when landing fast is hold the descend button and use the nose pitch keys to control ur rate of descent and deceleration it should be a series of bleed speed manoeuvre in to level flight a speed of roughly 100\kmh-50 km\h levelling the helicopter killing all speed just before touch down and with u should be landing like a plane not a hanging bullet magnet using auto hover with a 5 min straight down decent
i watched this video because these guys landed a heli right in front of me, killed them, watched this video and in 30 seconds i got in the heli and started flying it back to base. ty for the help
You can hold z and s, and then q or e based on which side your on and it should start to put the heli on its nose then just hold z and s and it should be unflipped
Question, unless I missed it, in the video, The Huey, where the hell do is the fuel point for it. I haven't been able to find it yet to refuel that chopper
no they are absolutely not out of place. it was like this in the mod aswell, only the russian helis are missing so far. the setting is still chernarus which was (prior to the outbreak) scene of a multi faction civil war. not only the russian and chernogorks military was involved but also the us marines as well as the UN. thats also the reason why you can find UN helmets for example. please get your facts right before complaining
I can't get it to fly using the mouse. I've tried alt, double tapping left ctrl...nothing is working. And for some reason just holding left ctrl makes me dive bomb into the ground. please help!
Arma3 Little bird pilot and a pretty good one, but for some reason I switch to mouse controls and it still moves the camera, which effectively keeps me bound to the keyboard. Is there something else I should be doing?. Obviously the settings in the Expansion mod are some what different now, but would love to be able to fly heli's like I do in Arma3
Do they require fuel? I have all the parts in the UH-1H in offline mode and when I hold left mouse to start the engine nothing happens and the little fuel meter in the bottom left corner is in the red. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
I'm finding when controlling the heli using keyboard only, the controls are super sensitive. Just tapping W will put the heli in an almost 90 degree roll forward and is way too much. The same goes for Yaw, it's hard to do precise movements.
I am almost never caught dead using autopilot to shoot things cause its too dangerous if you fall out or get out and forget to turn that shit off you can kiss your heli goodbye and watch it fly to the moon.
O that shit piece of plug was of helicopter? ... it dint sell at trader so I threw it. :) Hahaha! But I think I had found one again in some server.... I play 4 servers. Maybe its with me in that character. :) And yes I had that hydraulic whatever too.... I mean I kept it thinking might be helpful getting water from stream to the plough area. So its of heli too? ... great!... So all I need is that battery and a chopper itself. :) Yeah there are some guys on my server flying chopper... seen them. :)
They wouldn't have been able to do any of it without the dev teams work so I gotta disagree with you. They were just able to focus on more exciting content like helis instead of CLE, bug fixing and stability
some good tips but recommending auto hover landing is just bad....Amish you need to learn the landing technique that does not use auto hover...auto hover is a bullet magnet and is one of the worst ways to land a heli...plan ur landing zone and approach direction...at 2.0km-1.0km depending on the size and power of the heli...drop you alt down to tree top level roll the heli hard left and pitch the nose up and then reverse the roll all the way back and roll to the right and pitch up while holding the power down\off\ at 0%...this is called a bleed speed manoeuvre ..you`ll be approaching the landing zone in a S pattern \ zig zag which makes it harder to shoot u...by rolling and pitching up with s key and holding the descend button your bleeding speed without gaining height by increasing the angle of attack in the horizontal rather than vertical..with one final last hard manoeuvre close to ground to kill all speed and level the helicopter for touch down and it is essential during these bleed turns you hold the descend button or you can`t raise the nose enough the heli will just turn....with practice it should take you about 1 minute to go from cruising speed to landed that fast why auto hover is bad..it will make the helicopter climb steep and it does not manage the power propley you`ll end far to high up and end up having to spend 5 mins going straight down ur a sitting duck for anyone with a rifle and rangefinder...
I bought DayZ thinking chopper was in the game ! Still waiting all I see is damn cars that light speeds through internet time lagg and smashes into the trees guardrail or even better a full truck to build your base and crash it into the damn ocean . Why do they continue to sell this junk to people . DayZ game makers get off your ass and fix this 🐂 💩 of a game !!! No excuse for this 🐂 💩!

Amazing what this expansion has became especially since you used to not be able to jump fences lmaoo

Also, if you have auto-hover turned on and press the ascend or descend button, it will adjust the hovering altitude...
Yes....I can confirm landing on slopes currently causes some issues...particularly loud and spectacular issues... being an unfortunate passenger of a certain someone's helicopter
I just got my 1st Heli and I used my xbox one gamepad (on PC) to fly. Highly recommend it if you have a gamepad
Arma pilots watching this be like "Hold my beer"
Arma and Dayz are the same
yeah LUL
us arma pilots can hold our beer and fly around just fine :D

Thanks for making this. I was the one that asked for it in the live stream.

same here. i have my own and god mode and still not found one lol
They will spawn as he said if not they disabled it or ist disabled on your server
AND offline expansion guide. MAN I am glad I came here today.
Nice man. I will def have to get this offline thing on the computer so i can practice as well. Great vid man. Much needed
You can also press X to turn on/off Auto hover ish! :)
Did not know that! Thanks!
You said added helicopters, what you meant is finally implemented.

When I played Arma 3 , using auto hover was a death sentence, if you know what your doing you can move quick and land quick using no auto hover
so hard to learn landings in dayz
i watched this video because these guys landed a heli right in front of me, killed them, watched this video and in 30 seconds i got in the heli and started flying it back to base. ty for the help
Glad it helped!
What if you flip it when landing? Any idea how to flip it back on its feet?
You can hold z and s, and then q or e based on which side your on and it should start to put the heli on its nose then just hold z and s and it should be unflipped
Use a wrench. If you hold a wrench in your hand you can flip cars and helis back on its feets/wheels 👍🏻
Back here 5 months later after watching the first time, but this time to Learn to Fly. Who'd of thunk it.
I wonder how it copes with landing on buildings that are unreachable by foot? Could make a base at the top, only helicopters could raid it!
With a build anywhere mod it would probably be possible, unless they don’t have a hit box and just no clip through
High bases are fun. For giggles I even managed to build one at the top of Green Mountain tower :)
You can also toggle autohover with X :b
Did I miss how to fuel them? Didn't see the "how to" on fueling and re-fueling.
Question, unless I missed it, in the video, The Huey, where the hell do is the fuel point for it. I haven't been able to find it yet to refuel that chopper
On either side of the heli, looks like it would be a running board to step up into the seats, that is where you can fuel
Bicycle crashes my game but the gyrocopter blows up when I sat in it. I finally got the mod installed on my server, it was a real struggle.
there is one little strange thing about helicopters is that if you lower your power a lot and tilt right the helicopter will start to go left lol
Quick answer please. I cant remember the 4th component for the helicopter. I have the hydraulic hose, battery and igniter.
Which heli mod is this? I looked at DayZ expansion and heli wasn’t included in the description.
Ka 26 should be a heli in this game.. All these western Helis are out of place in a post-soviet nation
no they are absolutely not out of place. it was like this in the mod aswell, only the russian helis are missing so far. the setting is still chernarus which was (prior to the outbreak) scene of a multi faction civil war. not only the russian and chernogorks military was involved but also the us marines as well as the UN. thats also the reason why you can find UN helmets for example. please get your facts right before complaining
Does the merlin have brakes for the wheels? I always land and it rolls off to whatever direction for a while and bumps into trees.
I can't get it to fly using the mouse. I've tried alt, double tapping left ctrl...nothing is working. And for some reason just holding left ctrl makes me dive bomb into the ground. please help!
where does the Merlin have the engine parts?
i followed foxys guide for offline mode and my game keeps crashing while in the loading screen
Arma3 Little bird pilot and a pretty good one, but for some reason I switch to mouse controls and it still moves the camera, which effectively keeps me bound to the keyboard. Is there something else I should be doing?. Obviously the settings in the Expansion mod are some what different now, but would love to be able to fly heli's like I do in Arma3
hmm stranges because when you have any input exept yaw it turns off auto hover
Do they require fuel? I have all the parts in the UH-1H in offline mode and when I hold left mouse to start the engine nothing happens and the little fuel meter in the bottom left corner is in the red. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Great video 👍👍👍
Is the server happybombs still up? I tried searching with no luck.
its possible to fly with joystick ?
no helicopters are available in offline mode except gyro, which explodes right away
Nice video bro!! Can you say me where I can find helicopter in Takistan server?
How to turn on the hover? You dont post the key for that
how in the world do I fuel vehicles from the expansion or put oil in the cars?
you have something called expantion which my dayz does not have do you know how to get it?
the arena is way more south on the map, and u forgot the kamensk mil base huey spawn.
Nice Job Ish :) Thanks 4 sharing :) Happy Bombs server is "The Bomb " !!!
How do I stop the alarm going off in the little bird? I can't see any damage and it won't gain much altitude.
I think it's a low fuel alarm?
Any idea how to fuel them with a jerry can?
Where can you refuel the merlin?
Can you use a controller to fly the heli?
I'm finding when controlling the heli using keyboard only, the controls are super sensitive. Just tapping W will put the heli in an almost 90 degree roll forward and is way too much. The same goes for Yaw, it's hard to do precise movements.
Yeah you really had to tap it. But with auto hover you can hold w down with no problem
Ok when did you find time to do this you streamed for a minute yesterday
We need a deer isle location
how to refuel them. I can't find any video on youtube. Its all Arma 2
Do they fire guns too? ... as in Ghost Recon? :)
Amishzed love ya vid bro really do but can I get the expansion pack for consol or no
Unfortunately the expansion is a mod which is only on PC. I wish man, but Sony/Microsoft won't let mods come to console for DayZ. Not sure why
@@AmishZed dang look like im gonna have to get a computer just run it remote im controller freak never been good with m&k
Achcha Ghost Recon mein kisi cheez ki jarurat nahin... Helicopter paa jao ...uda le jao. :)
they even added radar altimeter
HELPFUL
CONGRATS ISH AND WIFE
Damn i cant enter the heli i bought, how do i fix this?
Sad I'm on xbox servers and can't put a helicopter mode 😢
how do I refuel ? you forgot that part.
There should be a gas cap on the side of the plane, they just take regular gas
I am almost never caught dead using autopilot to shoot things cause its too dangerous if you fall out or get out and forget to turn that shit off you can kiss your heli goodbye and watch it fly to the moon.
Where you get expansion for pc? Is that Livonia?
Expansion is a PC mod. Just find an expansion server and download the mods. Both the game launcher and DayZ SA launcher auto download them for you
too bad the huey is bugged and always despawns with all my gear inside of it for no reason.
@S L Yes
@S L Have you ever used any vehicle in DayZ?
There's a gas cap sssssomewhere on it
I wish for this on official
Is this on console yet or just pc
It's a mod so PC only unfortunately
Theres offline mode?
is this coming for xbox please
tried this was to laggy smashed into the ground and lost everything I own
how do you refuel
Yay! U learned how to fly! Lol
But what is the server men?. Holy shit!!!
Is it available on Xbox ?
how do you flip it
Are the helicopters on xbox one or on console?
Umm xbox one is a console? You mean pc and yes pc mod
@@UKGameShock mhmmm intersexting
Why didn’t u use the name from the discord😂😂
Lemme use the mouse for up left right and down
Switch to mouse controls and it will. more precise but you cant turn your head.
What about refueling????
Same as a car. Each heli has a small square on one of the sides where you can use any container to fill it with gas
@@AmishZed Thanks I crawled all over the Heli looking.
No Gyro love?
Nah we borked it
How long DayZ been in development and not have helis ?
I wish this would come to console
Lol if console had half th things pc had youd be at 3 fps
@@mcmillitint it could probably handle it but the helis would probably freak out and wouldn’t let you land it without blowing up
I'm guessing only for pc
Yes mods are only on PC ☹️
Thank you for a fast reply, usually wait a year for a reply. Sad day tho looks like I'll be getting a Pc lol.

Mad Max II btw ;)
Is it only for PC?
Yeah no modding on console unfortunately :(
the paid for heli mod is so disgustingly bad!! while the free one compared to the paid one is just so much better xD
I've never heard of a paid mod in DayZ. I'd avoid that if I were you
its exactly like arma 3 so ez
Flat out embarrassing how much these talented people have done compared to Bohemians GARBAGE dev team
