Probably the safest way to fly an R22;) The Nr looks a bit low though!!

The video shows a very long delay between input and response to begin with. Just as I gave watching the video, I noticed a very healthy nose-down input at some speed that would have probably resulted in mast bumping in the real thing...
This sim appears to be another triumph of marketing over reality, sadly.

Put a coin slot on that thing and put it in front of the arcade on the pier in Santa Monica.

I thought flying solo from the left seat was prohibited in an R22.........:}
