Helicopters in Vice City

Is anyone as bad as I when flying these? Even the RC one. I'm just berruuuutal!

Jello

Yes, I'm terrible! Took me ages to get past that RC mission.

Are you using a keyboard? I cant fly with the keyboard the controls are too awkward, using a joy pad im quite good at flying. The RC hellos are definitely harder to fly.

Yeah keyboard, on the PC. I end up getting the third bomb in with smoke flurries all over the place and then clatter into something else.

The mini choppers I'm not the best with, but the big choppers (esp the military one), I'm pretty good at:cool:

Im brilliant at flying I can fly upside down under bridges in planes in San andreas!!! And helicopters are easier than cars to drive I think.

I've a sidewinder joystick that makes flying a piece of cake. I've played my fair share of MS flight sim too which makes helicopters horrifically difficult to fly.

Word. The helis are impossible to fly on MS flight sim.

On the other hand, They're quite easy on GTA, although I will confess to never using a keyboard.

I find the helicopters easy to fly using the numeric keypad. The planes in SA though, are a complete bastard. I resorted to digging out my old usb joystick just to get past the flying school missions.

No trouble with the helis, the last air race in SA with the Hydra is challenging though, easier to do it with the wheels down!
