AUTOROTATIONS

I think that it is not fair. Planes in FMS can be just as good as in other simulators.
For helis the only thing missing is AUTOROTATIONS.
Please Please Please get this thing in. Its the only thing missing

I agree, somewhat. Planes are pretty much just as good as other sims, including the ones that cost $200. Now, as for helicopters, we need something else beside autorotations:transitional lift. This is the anomaly of losing lift and having to add power when transistioning from hover to ff; as far as i'm aware, fms doesn't model this (this is much more important then autorotations, imo). This also why heli buffs spend $200 for rflg2 or reflix:better heli physics overall.

Translational lift is when the lift INCREASES with forward flight, and vice-versa.
