Bell 407 Jet Ranger

Fore more visuals watch the video below.

The Bell 407 is a four-blade, single-engine, civil utility helicopter; a derivative of the Bell 206L-4 LongRanger. The 407 uses the four-blade, soft-in-plane design rotor with composite hub developed for the United States Army's OH-58D Kiowa Warrior instead of the two-blade, semi-rigid, teetering, rotor of the 206L-4. The Bell 407 is frequently used for corporate and offshore transport, as an air ambulance, law enforcement, electronic news gathering and movie making.

At 50% collective the helicopter has a automated passive altitude control (governor) prohibiting the helicopter to loose to much altitude during maneuvers.
Using the p in chat command or Hold Altitude or P on the HUD it will actively hold your altitude at the height activated.

Arrows left and right will make the aircraft turn at 0% - 10% cyclic, or turn and bank when cyclic is 15% or higher.
Arrows shift left and right will make the aircraft strafe left and right at 0% cyclic or turn and bank when cyclic is above or below 0%.

Arrows Forward and Reverse will increase or decrease cyclic, making the aircraft fly faster forward or revers.

Mouselook Steering
Mouselook steering can be activated with the m command or on the HUD pressing Mouse Steer or M.
Deactivated you can fly in mouselook using the normal keyboard controls as described above.
When activated and when in mouselook the vehicle will try to turn such that it points in the same direction as your camera.
Arrows left and right will make the aircraft strafe.
When out of mouselook the aircraft can be controlled with your keyboard normally as explained above.

Cargo Hook System

There are two scripts in the package 'cargo cable script (everyone)' & 'cargo cable script (owner)'.
Add one of these scripts to the object you want to lift.
'cargo cable script (owner)' will only allow the object owner to lift it 'cargo cable script (everyone)' will allow anyone to lift the cargo.
Beware, when the script is added to vehicles this can cause undesirable effects and should be deleted after lifting.

To lift objects, hover approx. 10 meters above the object and say 'hook' in the chat or press the Cargo Hook button on your HUD.

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

To enable vice you will have to add the VICE AMA sensor - 150HP v1.2.0 to the contents on the helicopter using the edit tool.

I was hopping for a jet ranger or a EC Squirrel, and finally my secret wish came true. with the new hover text system and the hover mode, the bell jet ranger makes a perfect choice for beginers who might be a bit affraid of the collective control.
