If asked what helicopter simulator fans most look for in flight simulator helicopters, the number one response would be realism and authenticity. After all, the main purpose of a simulator is to accurately simulate whatever it is the simulator is trying to simulate (did I lose you?), which in this case is helicopters.

There are two main aspects to judging the authenticity of the flight simulator helicopters found in any particular flight sim, and these are the helicopter’s visual accuracy, as well as its realism while being controlled. I reckon none have ever truly mastered both these two aspects correctly. But Flight Pro Sim did otherwise.

Visually stunning flight simulator helicopters can be found in Flight Pro Sim. The detailing of the outer part is sharp and shiny which gives each helicopter that new paint look. The interior of the cockpits are even more interesting, as they feature fully mapped out and authentic panels, rendered after photographs of the real life thing.

Not just for visual realism though, all of these buttons, levers, and panels actually function during your flight like they do on a real helicopter. While flying, your flight simulator helicopters from one of the outer cameras give you a great look at the surroundings, and at the helicopter itself, you absolutely must experience flying from within the cockpit as well, as it gives you a real life view of helicopter flying, and allows you to check out these instruments and panels and see how things are function aboard your aircraft.

The area design of controls for their flight simulator helicopters is what the second point is all about, and Flight Pro Sim excels in it. Each helicopter feels completely different based on the helicopter’s real life specifications, and this leads to drastically different experiences depending on which you choose. One may be handled smoothly with relatively stable acceleration, while another may have a tendency to drift in a certain direction on you, and take longer to adjust its speed and bearing. In this way, these flight simulator helicopters are almost like living entities, with their own quirks and habits which you need to discover, and this is part of what makes Flight Pro Sim so enjoyable and unique. After all, if every helicopter were the same, there would be no real incentive to try them all out.

There is not enough much good things to say about Flight Pro Sim and its large collection of outstanding flight simulator helicopters. Flight Pro Sim has struck the perfect balance of visual splendor and accuracy, as well as realistic physics and controls, perhaps the first of its kind to do so. Every good detail of the Flight Pro Sim contributes to the overall package and value of it. It’s an experience that fans of the flight simulation genre in general, and helicopters in particular, should not miss out on.
