Can't Eject from Huey/Cobra

I have died 12 times because of AA or tow and am unable to parachute. I also jumped out of a huey standing still over a city about 150m, NO CLUE how to fly kind of pilot that day and It killed me after 1 second??? So recently I went to my local server grabbed helos and flew to 1200m 1000m 500m and 100m only to find auto death... please bare in mind that no matter what your reasoning this "fix?" is so infuriating that it makes me want to rage quit everytime.
Sitting still not moving, flying 500mph, smoking, as infantry, as co pilot it all does that same.
Can we please remove this terrible feature

The helicopter must not have been exactly still. You can jump out of helicopters as long as they are moving under 20km/h (in-game accelerometer).

Also, parachutes should be deployed at least around 200m. If you hit the ground before a good 30 seconds of flight time, you will take damage on landing.



And finally, parachuting out of a helicopter is pretty useless. You'd have to be pretty high, come to a stop in the air, and then jump out.

i've jumped out when a heli was moving around 80 (slowing down) and took no damage. but ya, there's no reason to bail out of a heli; bth your best chance of survival is trying to make an emergency landing that is soft enough that it doesn't kill the heli on impact.
