What maps or game modes have helicopters?

Cant seem to get on any games which gives me a chance to try out the helicopters?

An Lao, Song Be, Hill 937, Operation Forrest, and quite a few custom maps.

Edit: FourGreenFields is right, if it's your first time playing heli, play some freeplay in the "Tutorial" section of the menu before you start.

Shame you haven't been able, they're the best part of the game imo.

Flying them is great, but shooting them down is a lot of fun, and really rewarding.

Side note: Do everybody (including yourself) a favour, and spend 5min (or 10min, if you intend to fly Huey) in freeplay mode. Learn to fly around and land (and land fast, for playing Huey).

If you break your rotor during landing (or even kill some of those in the heli): Ok, ♥♥♥♥ happens. If you hover above the landing zone, descending at 1m/s, and get shot with an RPG - nope, the death of 7 people (you, and a full Huey) is your fault.

Other than that, what Rootin Tootin Putin said.

I'm obsessed with both flying and hunting birds

supremacy usually has helis. a few territory maps have them.

best thing to understand with helis, always be moving and zig zag as much as you can. don't crank up the collective (blade pitch for ascent/descent) all the way, it will bog your rpm and then you're a sitting duck and otherwise have sluggish attitude response. you can get away with half collective with enough speed, as your rotor disc translates into a big wing and provides plenty of lift at neutral as you go faster. slow down for tighter turns otherwise it's a weathervane and keeps the tail straight.

if your tail is disabled or blown off completely the only way to save it is to get enough altitude such that you can turn down the collective, it will slow down the spin and you work the cyclic (tilt) to gain some velocity towards base.
