Practice your Auto-rotation Landings, do this even when you are experienced, it is part of your pilots skills and needs to practiced regularly. Like any good player in any role you can make your self a range of training missions in the editor, to sort out your own problems.įind out what slopes you can land on and at what angle and how you need to fly to land on them and take off from them.
The SP mission editor is the place for that, stick in some enemy AA units so you can get used to choosing a Landing Zones (LZ) that will not attract their attention. One thing to ALL NEW GUYS please do not practice being a pilot in MP! It can make you look bad mannered at best and label you forever as a stupid idiot at worst. The Pilot Role DO NOT PRACTICE BEING A HELICOPTER PILOT IN MP! If players are TK shooting at copters get their ID and pass it on to the server Admin. Transport helicopter pilots are respected in the community, good ones are treated like gold by their clans and jealousy guarded.
