Helicopter Crash Site

[puppetmaster11 229]

Can does or will this loot respawn once gone or will it only spawn new loot with server reset ?

Helicopter loot does not respawn.

-edit- is that right Bubba Jones? I figured it would behave like any other loot point, but I've never revisited a crash, so I don't know.

The crash site is removed during restart and will appear somewhere else I'm pretty sure.

I know this much is correct. It is randomized at server resets.

Chopper loot respawns after 30 minutes. But you have to be over 100m~ away.

Crashed choppers respawn on server restart.

I love heli crash sites. Then again i cant take anything else since im fully stocked.

This is NOT true, no loot will EVER respawn at a chopper crash, when the server restarts and someone comes and loots it, that's it. Trust me, I have personally camped several of them or rechecked them, the loot does not respawn.

Yes, it does not respawn. The loot actually gets determined when the helicopter originally spawns in - that's why you can see it in the grass from 100s of meters away - long before the zombies start appearing.

Any map showing the possible locations? (like dayzdb.com/map)

I have a map of plenty of possible locations. But I always find my heli crashes near stary and novy sobor.

As someone who has looted hundreds of crash sites, I can confirm that loot does not respawn, and crash sites only spawn the following loot:

- Bizon PP-19 SD

- DMR

- FN FAL

- FN FAL AN/PVS-4

- MK-48

- M249 SAW

- AS50

- M107

- M14 AIM

- NVG's

- Medical Box

- Misc (Chem lights, cans, bottles, epi pens, morphine, etc.)
