Some good info here:

I find the flight model in ToH much improved over Arma, and their support has been excellent so far (lots of patches, community mods etc)

i also looked at the technology checklist,

thanks, this article doesnt tell me about my question, i just like to know (for those who have played take on helicopters or hinds),

DOES the helicopter yaw stop working when you hit a certain speed? (in take on helicopters & hind) that was the thing i hated the most about Arma helicopters.. the inability to yaw left or right when you are at cruising speed..

The loss of yaw control authority at higher airspeeds is a real phenomenon for helicopters with tail rotors. I can't speak to how accurately this is modeled in Arma2 or in Take On Helos, but I would not expect to be able to yaw a conventional helo at high speeds. Even the Black Shark with its coaxial rotor system only has yaw control authority up to 80 kph or something like that.

That is probably true but I think it happens at a too low speed in Arma, it just feels wrong in my opinion...based only on virtual experience!

Ah, got it - specifics. I don't have it setup here, but could check tonight.

Also, there's a pretty full featured demo - so it's easy to try it out, plus advisable to check it out on your PC to make sure it runs as well as you'd like.

Looks interesting. I think I'll get TOH soon. I hope it's okay to play it with just Logitech Extreme 3D Pro. I've seen the real Mi-35 up close once, and would very much love to fly her virtual version. I hope TOH is also sold in boxes, I sure don't want to download something THAT big!
