choppers suddenly tilting at odd angles?

it seems to happen with all choppers. i dont know how to recreate this bug except it happens mostly when youre decelerating (pressing S) the chopper suddenly tilts at an odd angle (about 45 degrees) and its EXTREMELY hard and slow to get the chopper out of the tilt.. almost like it locks in place

anyone else experienced this?

I haven't tried chopters yet, but I think they worked with them so they now fall like rock if you stop the engine. Iam not 100% sure of this.

Yes, if you go full de-accelerate or 0% throttle the chopper will force itself downward. Make sure you only feather the de-accelerate key now to speed your decent, holding it solid down will result in you taking a rather quick nosedive into the ground.

Landing is really complicated now. I was having this issue on Kashan last night but I figured out that to prevent this you have to get where you want to go, lower down and then bring the chopper in soft kinda like a plane. This is alright on a map like Kashan because there's big landing areas but the fact that you cant come straight down is annoying. If you hold down s and land straight down the chopper either want to tilt or slide for some reason.

The heli will actually fall out of the sky if you throtle down to hard it usually falls back if it starts to do it just throttle up a little bit and it should correct itself.Once you figure it out its really easy to do the only problem im having is landing the black hawk flat it ALWAYS wants to go forward

Its called practice. Instead of hard throttle you tap the decelerate repeatedly.

For landing you approach low and slight pull back on mouse or joystick while tapping decelerate.

And if your coming in high. you pitch forward then back and tap til you decelerate.
