Good Pilots out there?

I use to be awesome in battlefield with helicopters, but in qw I can barerly keep the bumblebee in the air.

and most of the time it turns out to be a mass suicide by the pilot.

Anybody got good flying tips?

Talk to Dax. He's a flyin mofo in QW.

I actually found the problem. I had for some reason the thrust-forward on at all time, so every time I got on a helicopter it crashed with a building.

I turned it off and it feels just like battlefield all over again. I even did a flip-flop in mid air.

After a while I just took the bumble-bee and started crushing the strogg with it. Watch out below here comes the Giant Turtle Shoe!

of course this was only in easy that I was able to pull it off since in medium or hard cause an obliterator canon to back of the helicopter would take me out even before I could see them dang strogg.

Once you get flying down, don't forget to use your "decoys" whenever someone has a lock on you....

The anansi, you will have much better control when using your "brakes" you can make that aircraft do all sorts of stunts and evasive manuevers...

The strogg craft, meh... that one doesnt hover and is harder to stunt fly, i think it has an advantage with the weaponery though...

Yeah seems like the strogg bombs pack more punch than the anasi rockets. Also the strogg plane when going foward seems much faster with thrust than the anasi. This is the data I collected from driving both and getting shot at by bots.

I would just like to say that flying both the Anansi and the Tormentor in this game is the most game fun ever!
