Hey has anyone thought of or hope to include helicopters into the game?

I guess the game engine won't allow the helicopters to work properly ( hope I'm wrong ), i remember that there were many topics in many different forums about having a helicopters in Il 2 , however nobody actually created one.

Idea is not bad :cheers: 100+

It's possible just a lot of work. I started making one but laid in aside with all the other work that needs to be done first. If anyone wants to take up the project they're welcome to the files I started. It's just a start though. I on;y worked on class files. No 3D work.

It might work, if you use the Lerche's kind of style.

i wonder i team dalidose could do it?

( i hope i came close to spelling that wright?)

Talking about heli's, the H03S heli would be a most wonderful add on :o

I believe Germany had one at the end of the war and used it for ferrying only

Well,

All info looks good here, especially the pic of a world war two heli. Maaan, I wish we could get some included in the game. I will however, try my hand at it. I'll let you guys know if I'm successful.

That's a Korean War bird.

Best bet would be the Li-2 autogyro.

It's mainly a korean war bird but it already flew in 1945 (and even as early as 1943) designated YR-5A with the USAAF.
One of the most appealing heli's ever created if you ask me

the japanese had helicopters. i forgott their name. They startet from a carrier and attackt submarines. No one knew that long time, but i saw a doku about it.

[McHilt]

I found this on the net



a japanese autogyro type of machine, Kayaba Ka-1

[Alex T.]

the Germans developed a series of helicopter indeed, the most remarkable being the Focke-Achgelis Fa233

True, but to be accurate, the YR-5A was designated HO2S-1. The HO3S-1 didn't fly until after the war.
