The number of available helicopters in FlightGear is increasing rather quick. In my opinion the [[Eurocopter Bo105|Bo105]] is the easiest to fly, since it reacts substantially more directly than other helicopters. As helicopters have become more popular in FlightGear, many others have been developed. Each of them have their unique flight behaviour.

Once you have loaded FlightGear, take a moment to centralize the controls by moving them around. In particular the collective is often at maximum on startup.
