Rotorlib Hotdrop?

[Midamaru]

Is there anyone that uses rotorlib and can hotdrop really well?

Tried to practice and practice but it seems so hard.

My best attempt so far: 

 

[Pentax]

Not full orca and full orca will be handled differently with rotorlib, because weight matters.

[Midamaru]

Is a heavier orca better to handle? I seriously have no clue how to do this ._.

Can't even find any videos on learning it.. it's all just bleh

Personal preference honestly. But you can feel orca or any other heli actually being way heavier, so typical hotdrop which would work when you're flying solo wouldn't work on full heli.

[Midamaru]

So abusing the fact that rotorlib heli's can take more damage when landing is kinda pointless for cartels?

I just.. want to be better at it

[KevinOB]

I applaud you for using rotorlib.

But no one will shame you if you fly standard.

I mean ability to take more damage when landing does help, a lot. At the end of the day though all it comes down to putting hours in learning/practicing.

That's what i am wondering, if you fully master rotorlib. 

It does actually give you the possibility to land harder/riskier right?

In that case i won't mind practicing ^^

Yes you have more space to work with in rotorlib, you can pull maneuvers which you couldn't pull on standard, but of course with more risk included. Unfortunately until Bohemia will fix the way keyboard handles spool up(forgot the real name of the process lol) and spool downs (forgot the real name of the process lol), it's gonna be 10x harder than using a joystick. Cause currently on keyboard when u press a button to use more power in a spool up or less power, the action gets delayed by almost a second, on joystick it's instant.

[Midamaru]

That's one of the things really dragging me down yeah, i mean i could make a turn and stop the orca completely. 

If i'd land it would just spin up instantly for 5-10m again.. like i'd bounce off

[Pentax]

Btw with that landing if you had people on asylum, and landed that hard, all of them prolly would be sitting at like 20hp left, or maybe even dead.

[CyanogenCX]

How do you enable/disable rotorlib?

[Pentax]

I had made a video a year ago, when asylum was forcing rotorlib. From literally now knowing how to fly rotorlib and putting couple hours of practice, this is what I managed to come up with.
 

 

Obviously wasn't hotdrops or having full heli flying, but I remember doing hot drops on hummingbirds for marauders when rotorlib was forced. (they obviously werent as good as standard model hot drops, but at least it was something, considering the fact when they forced rotorlib, I was the only reason marauders were still doing those drops, while the rest used cars )

Esc>options>game>flying model from standard to advanced.

havnt used rotorlib bt all i do is just give it a sharp turn close to ground, land nicely and fast every time.. then take off ill put my nose up and turn so i do another sharp turn out of there, close as possible to the ground my tactics for droppin quick... kinda new so this could be irrelevant.. haha

Haha i know, i'm not trying to show off anything at all.

Out of like 100 attempts i finally survived a drop.. like i said thats my best attempt so far and it's still horrible!

There is a collective down/up change to control the rate of thrust in a manner of precision .   Ive only seen about 3 pilots who can hot land and fly like a beast with rotorlib.   Orcas handle weird compared to other choppers in rotor lib.   (2 of the 3 pilots , played in mill sim groups).

[Kowalski]

Flying rotorlib on Asylum is like playing professional soccer with your feet tied together.

 

Why???

cuz it's fun yo.

Normal flying gets boring imo

[Jessie Slaughter]

I've used Rotolib, it does make a difference how heavy it is. Hot landing is really almost impossible I only know like 2 people that could probably even attempt it. 

Just stay on normal. Rotolib is fun and different but don't do it on here, go to a different server where the choppers are free or cheaper and test it there.

More awesome flying vids please. I love flying and watching other epic collections of awesomeness with a rotary wing bird. Who is the best?

Turned the video on, saw standard flying model, turned it off. 

 

JK water physics on arma 3 are YEA......

[C h u r c h]

Idk how people can use that.

[Spec]

i thought you where gonna land that without breaking for a second.

I've mastered the Atmospherius.

Rotorlib by itself isn't even that hard in my opinion, try it without auto trim on and it's impossible unless you have rudder pedals. Only then will you know the woes of a real helicopter pilot!
