FUEL:

fuel off - switches the fuel system off and the auxiliary tank disappears

refuel - will refuel your aircraft. (or tank at any station that sends the refuel command)

Flight Controls:

Page Up increases Collective, above 50% ascending
Page Down decreases Collective, below 50% decends
At 50% collective the helicopter has a automated passive altitude control prohibiting the helicopter to loose 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% cyclic or turn and bank when cyclic is above or below 0%.
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, arrows forward and reverse will increase or decrease cyclic forward and reverse speed.
At 0% cyclic the aircraft will be steered without banking and above or below steering is coupled with banking.
When out of mouselook the aircraft can be controlled with your keyboard normally as explained above.

FlySafe
Including the new FlySafe mode from Spijkers & Wingtips Aviation.
FlySafe will be disabled when you switch on VICE or lower the landing gears.
When enabled by saying "fs" or clicking the FlySafe button on the HUD the plane and pilot will turn phantom and temporary.
Making the plane temporary enables flying through full parcels. Temporary prims do get counted on the parcels primcount, but do not get limited by the parcels prim limit. So if a parcel has a prim capacity of 400 prims, you can still have temporary prims exceeding this limit. http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/PRIM_TEMP_ON_REZ
Being phantom allows you to fly through those skyboxes, so imagine plotting your flight waypoints and never having to worry about sudden skyboxes rezzing in front of you :-)

Fuel Consumption:
Max. idle 100 minutes (1 hour 40 min.)

5 - 10 m/s = 92 min.
10-15 m/s = 83 min.
15-20 m/s = 75 min.
20-25 m/s = 67 min.
25-30 m/s = 58 min.
30-35 m/s = 50 min.
35-40 m/s = 42 min.

Can be disabled with the command fuel off or using the buttons on the Multi-functional Flight Display.
This doesn't represent the real life deal, but again this is SL and we are trying to give you somewhat the experience and frills you would have as a real life pilot.

MFD (Multi-Functional Display) and Instrument HUD
A light HUD included with just one MFD that has the map and flight information

The HUD is transferable so you can hand it to your Flight Technician and Co-Pilot, or a friend you have guested the plane to use.

This is one beautiful chopper, and it's not even Mesh! Plus, you can mod it to your hearts content. I've already started working on my own EC-135X, nice and dark gray. Lots of the new stuff out there has dropdown menus for canned customizations. That's fine, but this baby let's you do whatever you want to it. Also included are two HUD's for all of the in-flight options. Oh, yeah, and it's also a blast to fly! I wished I'd bought this baby first before a couple others, it would have saved me a lot of cash. This is a no-brainer, if you are considering buying one of these . . . stop thinking about it. Just BUY IT!

I HATE this Helicopter. Why? Cause I'm not getting anything done in Real Life because of it, lol. This is so well made and a really fair price. Hours and Hours of fun (don't run out of gas) and so so simple to learn. I don't often write a review, but I just had to give this maker two thumbs up for their fantastic work. Highly, Highly Recommended!!

This was my first helicopter purchase. I tried it out and it was wonderful. It offered a smooth ride with nice control and a great looking sculpted design. I'd say it's a pretty realistic helicopter. The best part is that the plane is modifyable, that was a key as to why I purchased this as my first Helicopter. Anyways, great job, and I would recommend it!
