Arma 3
heli speed (too fast)
I've tried to use auto hover to slow down my heli speed... but it won't help as soon as i turn it off it gains monumental speed (pressing Z helps but if you're over the steep hills or mountains you could lose attitude and crash) has anyone noticed at all? there gotta be some sort of break

I highly suggest rebinding you heli keys. Also quick tip then preforming to land start to slow down about 500m out instead of having 1 whole minute of desending from a high Alt. Also this is an Alpha, in the Beta or Full game there are going to introduce "Take On Helicopters" Which is a full game sim just put into Arma 3. So it will be extreamly relistic when they put that in, it will also not be so fricken responsive and sharp when turning. Hope this helps and happy hunting. :P

I have my keybindings for heli as simple as possible. W=increast thrust, S=decrease thrust, A=rudder left D=rudder right, 2x SHIFT=auto hover, ALT=free look. That simple.

Regardless of your keybinds, either you're doing something horribly wrong (no offense) or it is indeed a bug/glitch of some sort. I haven't had any such problem, though.

Alittle OT but "here are going to introduce "Take On Helicopters" Which is a full game sim just put into Arma 3. So it will be extreamly relistic when they put that in"

No take on helicopters is extremely far from realistic, try DCS black shark 2 or huey and you'll know the difference.

Ok smartass let me rephrase it then. It will be more relistic that it is in the default game right now... You happy now.. -_-

Helis seem a little off to me. I think I prefer how they used to be. Also notice that the sound is a bit strange. They seem closer than they are. As for the flight dynamics, I find them too easy, fast and static with no drift.
