Summary
This overhaul replaces Arma Reforger’s basic helicopter physics with real-world flight behavior.
Official Workshop description
🧠 CORE IDEA (IN SIMPLE TERMS)
Helicopters don’t just “float” anymore.
Lift, power, and control are constantly affected by:
Speed
Altitude
Weight
Pilot movement
So instead of arcade flying, you’re managing energy and airflow.
