Yeh it's fun. Just takes some time to get used to. Your first challenge is to fly the darn thing, you gotta remember that helo in it's natural state is out of control. Fortunately the Kamov has pretty nice autopilot functions that keep the helo somewhat under control, but even with them on prepare to crash alot in the beginning. Once you learn to fly a bit then you have to keep an eye out for the dreaded vortex that will suck you right into the ground if you're not awake.
After you can fly the thing, then it's time to learn to shoot stuff which is luckily much easier. PS. Don't be scared of the number of switches and buttons, you don't need but a fraction of them to fly and shoot stuff. |

Bloody Shilka. Told ya there was a convoy coming through soon, didn't I?
Making some waves on the way home after wiping out insurgent facility. I yelled "missile!", but yeah, doesn't do much good if he ain't got no flares.

Just occasionally, but could organize it a bit more. I just threw together a mission with several target sites and a convoy heading for your base, fairly straightforward. Nice to practice a bit, without those frustrating things like an enemy helo or plane blowing you away (Shark barely has capability to engage helo, none for fixed-wing).
Could post in BS thread when I'm running a mission. Regulars now are Dowly and Lionclaw, 4th slot available, so feel free to drop in... guess I'll add a few more slots in case we need them.

What usernames do you have on Steam? Tried searching but no results. I've got the same username on Steam as here.
