3-axis simulation possible?

I seem to have a hard time hovering, but in real life I have no problem.

Is there a plugin that allows for the 3-axis gyro? to stabilize hover.?


Ich habe eine harte Zeit schweben scheinen, aber im wirklichen Leben habe ich kein Problem.

Gibt es eine Plugin, die für die 3-Achsen-Gyro erlaubt? zur Stabilisierung der Hover.?

I try an answer...

Maybe in real life your heli has lower RPM, is heavier, bigger or has an otherwise different setup.
In HELI-X try a bigger size heli and use the lower speed idle up. Also you may want to check/adjust the curves to match your real settings. Just try different models and settings to find one suiting you best. If it's more a visual issue with the very small helis, try to zoom in to see the heli bigger (there are plenty of other visual settings).

There is no plug-in needed. Majority of helis in HELI-X already use a flybarless stabilization system already. They are indicated in the desription by flybarless, FBL, VStabi or similar - but easiest to see if the heli has no flybar :-). Probably the most commonly used (also in the demo) is the Logo 600. However, personally I find flybar helis easier to hover and think there I can feel better the weight/inertia of the heli. That's personal preference though.

Thanks, I will try, I set wind enabled, and zero for the wind speeds.

Still when I get the heli up about 3 meters, it starts to drift left.. I make a correction, via trim, and it still eventually slowly drifts left.

This gives me more control practice.

That is correct. The drift is because of the tail rotor push. Think this is even explained in a video on the heli-x website and somehow remember it was even discussed before in this forum somewhere.
