How to use them
Work down the list. The basics build the hover and touchdown control everything else needs; the forward-flight drills teach energy management; the combat drills put that under pressure. Every drill works in all six helicopters. Start in the MH-6, then repeat in the heavier Lakota, which responds more slowly and punishes big inputs.
The trainer runs on keyboard and mouse, or any stick, HOTAS or controller your browser can see. Set it up to match your in-game binds using the controls guides.
