Hi Maik,
I know it's a little early for my question, but I am writing a FG
Flying Tutorial and want to add a chapter about heli flying.
Would you mind sending me a couple of lines describing how to handle a
heli? The only information I got, is the FLY II manual and I do not
know, how good it is.
TIA,
Carsten
