recently i took a helicopter tour of san francisco, so i decided to
play a little bit more with the helicopter simulation in fgfs. it's a
lot of fun. a couple of things though. i use the keyboard mappings and
a mouse to "fly" and i noticed that the collective is mapped backwards
(up goes down and down goes up). also i find PageUp and PageDown to be
cumbersome, so i mapped the collective to the 1 and 2 keys (so i can
use my left hand). with these changes i managed to hover and even land
on top of the buildings in downtown sf. i've collected some of the
screenshots at http://caliban.lbl.gov/fgfs-heli/index.html. for
comparison (although we didn't land on top of any of the buildings :-(
) the real pictures of sf are at
http://caliban.lbl.gov/sfhelitour/index.html.
Great pictures and screenshots. If you have one or two screenshots you are especially fond of, it might be worth putting them on the FG page since I haven't updated screen shots in quite some time.
Regards,
Curt.
