Solution from Michael which worked for me:
Steps:
1. I have installed Java SDK from Oracle site
2. I have deleted the folder HELI-X5 (it is in the user's Library)
3. I did run the HeliX - it did start, but it did not launch the main screen.It did recreate the HELIX-5 folder.
3. In the HELIX-5 folder, I duplicated the file "liblwjgl.jnilib" and renamed the duplicate to "liblwjgl.dylib"
4. Started Helix, now it started properly, as "DEMO" version. Using an "Option" menu, I register myself.
5. After these steps, the Helix now works for me

Thanks Michael for the help.

3. In the HELIX-5 folder, I duplicated the file "liblwjgl.jnilib" and renamed the duplicate to "liblwjgl.dylib" - this works fine and also for me! Thank you!

It is fixed. Just install the demo version again, it fixes the 10.10 issues.

I installed Java RTE 8 from Oracle. After that I installed this; http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572

And now it works fine! ;-))

Same here. :-(

Had to install the full Java 8 SDK to just have the app start up. (It starts with a flashing (i.e. on/off) splash screen - never had that before.)

But now, I experience extreme drops in framerate! When I start flying the heli I'm always <50 and mostly stay even below 20! That just doesn't work for me. Any ideas?

Hopefully,

I started over again from scratch. This time it worked. It is important to do the Apple update when all else is done:

I have installed Java 8 and deleted the folder Heli-X in the library.The downloaded Demoversion 5.0 cannot be installed.
Meanwhile I have tried all recommendations made in this forum to succeed.But in vain.My problem is,that i cannot create
the heli-x folder in the library.Because the installation of the program fails.

Same for me, nothing works. Just keeps on telling me to install Java Runtime Environment.

Also, the apple support DL1572 doesn't open for me. :o :o :o :o
