Hahah, I love the 'sales' pitch!

Cheers I figured a two minute video of a helicopter flying level or on a particular heading would be a bit bland, glad you enjoyed the alternative.

Nice work here, but....Simply enabling 'Auto Trim' in the difficulty settings seems to fix this problem sufficiently. It's a bit like switching on or off S.A.S (stability augmentation system in a real helicopter).

Thanks, and good to know, I just prefer to use manual trim

Added to Six Updater Network.

As always thanks

I strongly recommend the Six Updater. Although developed for Arma2, it also works for ToH and will manage your mods for you. It will save you messing about with command line options and will update the mods automatically when the auther publishes updates.

Updated on SU. few notes:
- Could you please use the latest 2.5.1 or newer BI tools for V2 bisigns, as the bisigns are currently v1 (~260 bytes, instead of ~500 bytes)
- There's the wrong .bisigin included for non _ee pbo

Sorry about that, grabbed the wrong one. Updated with the correct one, which is the _ee version with V2 tools.

Cheers Sickboy for picking that up
