I used to fly helicopters in project reality and when I try to fly in Arma 3 I always have a muscle memory of using project reality controls. Your key bindings are exactly the same as the key bindings in project reality and now it is much much easier to fly in Arma 3. Thank you
Dam mate that is awesome! So glad we could help. These control funny enough are also Squad, which I based it off, but squads the successor to PR anyways
New to Arma and currently an expert at crashing helicopters. I'm determined to get good at flying them. I'm going to change my key bindings to what you have. Seem much better.
Happy to help! We adapted this from Squad controls. Its the easiest combo on the hands and makes the msot sense to jump easily from infrantry to heli pilot
Thats freaking awesome! I have been flying mouse and keyboard in squad for years, so it just made perfect sense for arma also 👌 Show off your skills to us if you record?
I usually swap my mouse up and down. I like to fly with pitch down as mouse up and pitch up with mouse down. The control setup is great though as the defaults are very terrible for this game
From memory (I can check tonight) you should be able to click on the "mouse up" and be able to select from a large list of bindings. From memory it is a very simple process. Let me know if you find out before I do 👌
@@BigDGaming thanks for answering. Yeah I'm new to arma and I love piloting aircraft at games but since I'm broke asf it's not possible for me to get the proper gear to play as a pilot, so it's gonna be kb+mouse for now. Even the softest key press turns into a big output in the aircraft controls and that's driving me nuts because I still can't seem to find a way solve this.
Thanks for the great feedback! And funny enough its in planning now. We had another few vids and projects take priority first. So we hope to release before 2023 or just in the days after 🙌 It will be specifically on jhooks, flat or alternative landings 👍
@@prizim4827 dcs and Microsoft flight simulator are the few games you have to have a joystick for. Most you can mouse and keyboard, but it feels elite using mouse and keyboard, but its quxiker transition from flight to infantry in agnes like arma and squad.
Thats amazing we could help you! Yeah the controls are different from normal armour games. They are the same controls adapted from Squad, so if you fly in Squad its no worries adapting to them. Simple and to the point 🙌
Just glad we can help someone! We tried doing more extremely landings. We found its doable, but you have to really fine tune settings and spend hours and hours at it. This jhook can be done faster and smoother once you get expert at it 🙏
Thats a weird one! Id suggest reseting all setting to default and see if that fixes it. The mouse has never done that to anyone I have ever spoken to. Something is conflicting thats for sure! Let us know what resetting settings does 🙏
Thats confusing? Are you keybindings the same as mine? If you look in the tutorials, i have another arma 3 video with all the keybindings I use, which is what I also use for Squad helicopter flying.
Absolutely! It will be made within 1-2 weeks. I will cover Jhook landings and regular straight landings. All with mouse and keyboard. Keep an eye on this channel and sub with bells on so you see it. Anything specific you wish to see?
Is there a conflicting key binding somewhere? It should simply look left to right 🤔 but a conflicting key binding may be causing the issue! The controls for keyboard and crazy everywhere and it took us a while to get a nice sweet spot. But its mostly the exact controlls defaulted in Squad Helicopters. Have look and let us know please 😁
@@BigDGaming no there's no conflicting keybinds but I think I figured it out it's cause the aircraft was still wanting to go one way so I had to correct it and then it allowed me to turn
@MacheteJoe aaah I see, so you where mid flight, my mistake! Arma is very heavy flight module and it wont correct itself usually with one key or move of the mouse, it takes mutiple controls. Ill cover this in an upcoming video 🙌
Personally these keybinds are not it for me, much much harder to use than the default ones cause you have you swing your arm like crazy to get any ammount of movement if you play on low sensitvity
Yeah look not all control are for everyone, we made these ones based of Squad as the helicopters handled similar. But the arma helis are much heavier and not as swiningy. I found the default ones just awkward to use as well and i think they may have co flicted with another control I used is why. But its whatever suits you at the end of the day. 🙏

These key bindings are the same as Squad, so you can play both and fly the same. Arma though is like flying boats compared to squad 🤣
I've just got the flying down pat. It's the landing I have a problem with.😫
@@cliffedward one out of two is a win 🤣 start slow and small and build up, it may take a few weeks to really get good at it
this feels just like the Battlefield 4 controls, thank you

I can't control it using the mouse. I press alt and it doesn't work. Do you have a solution?
You set up the controls exactly the same and your having some issues? Hmm first person to have issues with controls 🤔
Alt makes you free look
you have vehicle freelook option turned on?
Dude!!!
I used your keybinds and with first try I enjoyed flying so much!

You the mouse inverting or noinverting is a personal choice, but the rest of the keys just feel best to me.
3:01 how do i bind the cycle commands to a mouse movement?

@@BigDGaming I got it, thanks 🙏
@sprocaster amazing! Goodluck flying!
Great video. Is there a way to lower the keys sensivity?
Thats a great question, i dont believes i ever saw a collective pitch or yawn sensitivity editor, id have to boot it up to find out

@@n3wmgmt118 yeah unfortunately we have no idea whats going on there, maybe search the reddit threads to find a solution?
I've been having a problem where the mouse controls do nothing and are always moving the camera even without toggling or holding the Alt key
I have a similar issue, hovering with mouse and keyboard is tough. Any other factors causingbthe issues?
@@BigDGaming I dont know what the problem is. My settings are the same as yours but all moving the camera does is move the camera
@@BigDGaming I found the problem. In options/game vehicle freelook is default on
@@dfdempire8912 well that fixes it! Amazing, flying like a pro before you know it! We will have more flying instruction videos soon!
Are you still planning to do your guide on landings and all? Don't get me wrong tommeh had some solid details but I enjoy your style more
Thanks for the great feedback!

Mine is always stuck on free look. Or whatever it’s called. Had the settings down right but the mouse just moves my head

no hay forma de que en vez de un "sensor relativo" el juego obtenga un joystick pero dependiendo de la posicion del puntero ?
A joystick would be good, however its easier to use a mouse and you cna go from heli to infantry faster. But personal choice really
any keybinds i do, and when i fly up i do 360 everytime how do i fix it lol its impossible.
Thats confusing? Are you keybindings the same as mine? If you look in the tutorials, i have another arma 3 video with all the keybindings I use, which is what I also use for Squad helicopter flying.

@@noobybro7578 amazing!
thx it helped
Thats great to hear! 🤙🙏
I have the keys and flying down. The problem is landing. Need help.
That's so good to hear mate! Yes the landing is truly just the painful part, unfortunately all I can say is practice practice practice.
I tried using the controls but the helicopter doesn't want to turn for some reason when I press a and d
