Okay, these tips and techniques WORK. And not just for standard helos. I play with OPTRE units and you can use this stuff on Hornets, Falcons and even Pelicans. You want to talk about something massive you shouldn't be able to bleed flare with, a Halo Pelican is top of the list. But then you make it work and the dedicated pilots get pissed you can fly their bird better than they can. XD
The best tip I have for anyone who's trying to really learn how to fly helos in Arma is to limit their framerate to 25fps while training (unless you have a pretty banger PC that can have 50fps+ on KOTH or Milsim ops) The 60fps and 0 ping that you have while on the Autorotation map or an empty map is not realistic to Arma 3 gameplay and the low FPS will change how you perceive things
Oh shit, this was posted today! What a coincidence, I rewatched all of the landing 101s yesterday, and saw this thinkin "huh. Didnt see that one, RUclips must've been hiding it
Hehe, nope, I'm back at it with YT! Seriously man that's insane you've rewatched my 101's. I appreciate that so much as a lot of work believe it or not went into that series. I hope your flying has improved too
As a Pilot in Arma with roughly over 2k confirmed hours in the Air in Arma it is alway special to watch ppl how they fly/land good Job m8. I do it a other way but still the same conept
I’ve watched you for a while and all your content helps! I picked up flying round about last year and your videos helped me improve so much, all I can really say is thanks for every video you make!
I'm a pretty new pilot. I fly in a small casual unit and on an I&A server. I used to auto hover + Z to land, which is horrible. I learned the bleed flare on my own but I've been watching this channel for some more tips. Amazing content. Thank you for making this stuff.
Bleed flares can be quick asf if you are close to the ground (which you look like you are). Also turning left or right making you sideways can slow it immensely.
Been watching ur vids since 2018 and can say I now officially could do most landings by the end of 2018 especially being decent at pinacles landing thanks a lot for the vids man keep up the good work
Thank you tonnes Brexxes, and an extra extra big thank you for sticking through till the end!! (the Star Citizen stuff lol). I know it won't be for everyone as that game is quite divisive, but I'm looking to branch out into other games while we wait for Arma 4. Having so much fun in Star Citizen atm!
you have no idea how much I needed this so that I wouldnt get yelled at every five seconds for trying to autohover land as a new player and less than decent pilot.
That's honestly so kind of you man, but I don't think so! I can't see my stuff getting that far out there. But I really enjoy doing this and reading such lovely comments so thank you
Nice to see your back on this epic channel🖑. Take your time and dont be stressed. Your community will wait as long as it takes you to show your incredible flight skills. Hope it dont rusted😉
@@CallMehTOMMEH well I mean the hole thing.When I play KOTH I see Pilots land this thing like a little bird and when I try it is goes down like a paper. An other nice tutorial would be a blackfish tutorial.
@@MissHeda i've got a tutorial on combatlanding the blackfish if you already know the basics. Nowhere near the quality of tommeh's videos but it might help you out
His videos helped me a lot, I used to watch a video and then load up the editor and try to fly around and land on every gas station canopy in Altis. Found Tommeh from another Guy "Misconduct" Between the the two of them I have became a above average pilot.
@Tom R, thank you for sharing that! It's interesting you found me from Misconduct, we're good pals! I'll pass that onto him as he'll really appreciate that :-)
Hehe going upload mad! Got many more to come soon. Have moved things around at uni so I can get into uploading more frequently :-) And they're at 115, contrast 80, brightness 110. :-)
I've found a good way is to wait until you're about 1.2km from the target you want to land at. start descending and whenever you start going down, pull back a bit. over the distance you slow down enough and stay low enough, to land quickly and get out fast
also if the vertical speed gauge is visible in your helicopter it can be used to better see how youre balancing the lift/sink and deacceleration - it helped me quite a bit
Thank you for taking your time and making this video for somebody like me who is absolutely trash at flying. How do you make ArmA look so good? What are your in game settings? Would love to see a video on that.
I loved your guides and helped me a lot with helicopter but now I have a problem. The key binding fuck up my plane controls( Default) is there anyway you know to fix it? EVen though they look in seperate categories plane and helicopter controls affect each other.
A cool series, if you have the time to do it, would be if you review landings people submit and suggest where they can improve or what they are doing good
Very Nice Turorial, Sad part is that iam using Hotas which doesnt give me the ability to dethrottle as smooth and constant as possible with a keyboard. But iam still trying to figure it out. Keep doing that Content pls :D
This comment is so kind yet so cruel haha. No srsly I appreciate the sentiment though. For now I just do YT as a hobby plus it's easier to interact with you guys when I'm at this size! :)
okay so ive been having a problem with landing, in a server i play for Altis life. when i try to land i have to hold my Z key down (to lower myself) but its weird because i lose altitude FAST, and it wont stay at its altitude unless i begin to throttle up with my SHIFT key, so i end up just crashing and dying. BUT when i fly in singleplayer, its so easy to land?!? like whats the deal with that? shift make me go up, Z to go down, it doesnt force me to the ground like it would in my MP game...
I used to play Arma way back in the day but I just got a new pc I've got an I-9 9900 KS a 2080 and 32 gigs of RAM. I know Arma run like a paraplegic on those PCS but I'm wondering what Arma is more stressful on is it the ram? Because I know it's definitely not the GPU cuz it sounded like 30% load at Max settings but I'll have frame drops and I don't think it's my processor so I'm assuming it the ram correct?
@@CallMehTOMMEH Not only did I enjoy it but after working in the Editor on your info, it made my piloting skills immensely better. No, I'm not making those amazingly fast l;landings as yet but I now have so much more control over my aircraft. I really love the idea of ditching the Little Bird and working with bigger air frames. I was able to manoeuvre both the Ghost Hawk and Huron in tight spaces last night on the TRC server. Thanks again
if people still have trouble with compact landings I would highly recommend either watching a bit of physics 101 online or snagging a class. Sure, there's math, but it's math you can see, and once you're done with the first two weeks you'll get a pretty good idea of what your helicopter's doing, how it's doing it, and what it needs to do in order to land.
Can someone explain how the scissors landing works because I just don’t understand it. Do we simply roll left and right and that’s it? Do we rudder roll collective? From looking at just the key inputs it looks like just pulling back while rolling
Thanks to your great video's, till now reaching almoust 50 000 tactical insertions on hardcore servers. Watched carefully and used all gaved tips. For that many thanks 😊 . How you make your vids looking so good? Can you tell a bit? I gues Arma is a bit specific. If its not a secret it will help many ppl..

"Grab the biggest and most clunky helicopter"

I would like to see him do this shit in a pelican
I have a question... how do u see where r u landing? :D Its my biggest problem flying even with advanced flying mechanic .
Absolutely wonderful video that is very inspiring.

Tommeh, how would you combat land a Blackfish VTOL? A tutorial on it would be great!
Amazing mate,yet again 😁
Haha thanks Mark! Glad you liked watching o7
oh shit tommeh with another video
thanks for this video i'm trying it now with my old Microsoft joystick.
Great video, man!
Thank you Huskyy
Keep going please dont stop!
Great video mate. Would you be able to make a tutorial on how to fly a Blackfish? Or maybe more tutorials with jets? Cheers.
Realy nice video
oh yeah, hes back!
You better believe it baby!
this is so exciting to watch hehe
What did you use to get the tiger stripe textures from Koth into the editor? Keep up the good content!

Thankyou very much for this tutorial, very helpful for pilot who likes using chonky boi
No problem!
key binds for helis????
YESSS ANOTHER
Have a nice day man
You too Joshua
I have been doing this by accident for the past week lmao. Still, this tutorial will help me perfect it.
Hope it helped and I bet you've mastered it by now man! Sorry for the really slow reply btw haha.
Nice vid!
Thank you Taxionic mate! Glad you enjoyed :-)
Can u please make a video of how to emergency land helicopter with 2 main rotors and no tail rotor like the KA-50 from the CUP mod ?
Do u fly with advanced fly model?
Do you use standard or advanced helicopter flying model for this technique?
Standard :)
Good video, very helpful :D
VTOL landing guides when? We're in the pipe, five by five.
Hello love your vids they’ve really helped me just wondering is their a certain mouse sensitivity I should use
Not that I know of, it's personaly. I use 900 DPI. Thanks man! :)
Hello Can you make a video about the basic run down about flying and cars and other stuff
Hey man, and yes I could look into that for you
I don't understand, wouldn't holding down the throttle decrease button just cut the throttle to zero, in essence turning the engines off?
A cool series, if you have the time to do it, would be if you review landings people submit and suggest where they can improve or what they are doing good
Damn. How did you set up the Mouse Sense? I went to the Arma Cfg and changed it to your sense and restarted my Arma 3 game. It didnt change.
Very Nice Turorial, Sad part is that iam using Hotas which doesnt give me the ability to dethrottle as smooth and constant as possible with a keyboard. But iam still trying to figure it out. Keep doing that Content pls :D
One guy I know calls the scissor thing a snake bleed
Haha I like that, wish I used that in the video instead of just the "scissor technique"
This guy is chronically undersubbed

Heyy ...just wandering if your still streaming on twitch??¿¿ ; )
good explanation
Thank you Jawwk as always. Hope you're doing good mate!
How do you know your hit box… I keep hitting my tail rotor and my main rotor…
why is this so fucking hard, i try everything you say but i end up reversing quickly or it just doesnt balance at the same time
Take it slower and also reduce your mouse sensitivity. It may be too high. be gentle with the controls
Top notch.
Thank you Paul :-) o7
awesome thanks

How do you land so fast without it exploding? When i land at like -5kmh it explodes or is atleast damaged
He just said "im not talking about lesban sex mechanics" without worrying about youtube possibly demonitizing his video for that xD. What a legend
Still hasn't been demonetised (touchwood) to this day hahah. Maybe they do have a sense of humour at Google after all lol

You've got it. Pulling back whilst rolling! :-)
Is your mouse on a higher sensitivity? I’m struggling really hard with actually pulling up enough to reduce speed drastically.
Nope it's 800 DPI :)
