Flaschenkind (DayZ) 34 Posted December 21, 2012 (edited) Hey guys,I just wanted to show you the advantages of the AH6X "Little Bird", which is available on DayZ Servers for quite a while.I was the pilot of the Mi-17 and you can see how hard it is to keep up with this little bastard, altough the Mi-17 doubles the speed of the little bird.I'm not a professional when it comes down to video processing. Still, I hope some of you might enjoy this short video.Anyways, thank you for watching. :) Edited December 21, 2012 by Flaschenkind Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Welch (DayZ) 756 Posted December 21, 2012 Sure, the Little Bird can maneuver with tenacious speed, but the MI-17 is a beast when it comes to speed and armor. I've tried taking out an MI with a Huey, we had 2 gunners, and we barely did any damage. The only way we got them is because we hit the pilot.I bet you could ram a Little bird out of the air and you'd not have to worry about it turning on you or whatever.

Flaschenkind (DayZ) 34 Posted December 21, 2012 Thats true. I really love "my" Mi-17, because, as you said, it can take quite a punch and the ability to fire backwards is (so more degrees in every way) is great. Yesterday I had the opportunity to fly a Huey again and I was simply amazed by his maneuverbiliy compared to the Mi-17. A friend of mine hit me with his M249 just once (by accident), while I was flying a little bird. Everything on red instantly. You see in the video, that we hit the Little Bird 3-4 times with the MI-17 and 4 times with DMR from the ground. It was orange on INST and MROTOR and yellow on VROTOR and HULL. So atm, I don't see a true "system" behind this... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
