The [[Bell UH-1]], originally created by Helijah, has now been improved.
Most all of the model, including the exterior and interior have been redone using drawings freely available from a real flight manual.
The [[FDM]], created by Maik Justus, is based on real data and measurements done by  NASA.
It is a first release and the author plans to continue, as soon he has finished some other projects.
It is compatible with 1.9.1 and later!
'''Features;'''
*besides the BO105 it is the most realistic fdm!
*nice shaded interior textures!
*higher resolution of the textures!
*accurate and correct proportions of the models
*the beginnings of a realistic cockpit!
*original sound!
and finally: tested and supported by a real Bell UH-1 Navy Pilot! 
'''Known Issues:'''
*poor engine simulation- no autorotation possible (clutch simulation missing!)
*panel not ready- needs detailed pictures of the middle panel of the engine instrumentation
*no lights yet
*no gun/ rocket sounds
*missing parts in the cockpit like stick, pedals, overhead etc....
*Only one livery for the Gunship
'''Important for Repainters:'''
There are two livery-folders:

Please make sure that you choose the right folder.
Have fun!
Thanks to JAG007, Helijah; Maik Justus, MOJO!
