Hey guys,
It's been on Nexus for about 2.5 months now but still... After the amazing "Let There Be Flight" mod, there now is the fantastic "Drive an Aerial Vehicle" mod, with which you can fly all the AVs and the only helicopter in the game, the super sleek looking Zetatech Valgus.
As a diehard hardcore helicopter fan, I've been doing nothing else but flying that sick chopper since I discovered it back in May. Can't believe I missed it all that time.
Here, I'm testing the flight mechanics of the helicopter which are awesome. Really deliver the helicopter experience like Air Ranger 2, the best helicopter sim of all time to my accounts.
Here, I'm fully utilizing the helicopter to get jobs done. It's a long video, but checkout the 6 minute piece from
53:58 to 59:00 at which the video begins here.
As I'm planning to build a helipad platform right next to the megatower apartment using the Object Spawner mod, thought it was a cool idea to show where exactly the apartment can be found from the outside.
Enjoy it, pilots.
Edit:
As the Zetatech Valgus is a so called Coaxial-rotor helicopter, (A coaxial-rotor aircraft is an aircraft whose rotors are mounted one above the other on concentric shafts, with the same axis of rotation, but turning in opposite directions (contra-rotating)), I was wondering how it can achieve "yaw" movement.
As it turns out: "Rotational maneuvering, yaw control, is accomplished by increasing the collective pitch of one rotor and decreasing the collective pitch on the other. This causes a controlled dissymmetry of torque." Hm, how genius.
