Hiller UH-12 Float Version 1.02
The Hiller UH-12 (also called OH-23 Raven) was a lightweight widely used single engine helicopter.
The model sold here is one used by several private companies for general light duties around seaside areas..
It is easy to fly, crosses sims like a breeze (provided you are not carrying a ton of scripts), and provides hours of enjoyment in exploring the grid.
The Hiller UH-12 features:
A full mesh body
Low lag scripts for easy sim crossing
Realistic easy flight system.
Detailed hud and detailed interiors.
Particle effects when close to the ground or water
The heli seats two, and it can be set to be flown by the owner, a group guest, or anyone.

Great!
Excellent ! low land impact, very easy to fly, nice, two crew, can float, good hud and is not excessively expensive, a great purchase. I am very satisfied.
Great Heli
This is a great 2 seat heli. It's pretty easy to master the controls, and has good visibility in mouse look for landing. The general flight behaviour is good, although side slip can feel a bit fast at times, but it's not enough to be a problem.
Sim crossings are stable, even with a passenger (both of us were wearing mesh bodies, hands, feet, hair, clothing, and a few accessories too).
It's also a nicely detailed model, without being excessive (keeps the prims/Li nice and low).
I already own the Air Crane version (also a great heli), and as to be expected, this is equally good, just instead of having a crane and crate to play with, you get to land on water :]
More great work from the Stormo factory
