In case you missed it, even without official support for helicopters, FlyInside is digging into developing the first payware model for Microsoft Flight Simulator.
The company, which is better known for pioneering VR in FSX and X-Plane, and, later on, for starting developing their own sim, is working on bringing us the Bell 47 for Microsoft’s latest sim.
And yes, FlyInside is promising a good, advanced flight model as well:
The Flight Model: Although MSFS does not currently include a helicopter flight model, FlyInside has had one under development for years (for FlyInside Flight Simulator). Our flight model provides an authentic helicopter flight experience, with realistic collective/cyclic response, ground effect, flap-back, transverse flow, torque/yaw, and auto-rotation capabilities.
For those of you with helicopter flight controls, our 47G has a piston engine simulation, with manual throttle control. For those running a normal joystick, you can also turn on the auto-governor and fly using 4-axis control only.
Expect some more news (and a video with my opinion) as soon as FlyInside has a build ready for previewing. Meanwhile, check out the update post on the official MSFS forums (you will find some more screnshots there as well).
