sorry, this isnt clear at all as you're using the 3rd person view and we are not getting the HUD of the person doing the filling.

I assume what you are doing is:

1) Parking the heli as close as possible to the tank

2) getting on top of the tank with a jerry can

3) filling the empty jerry can

4) rotating to look at the heli without getting off the tank

5) You then have the option to fill up the heli? (this is where it would have been good to see your first person view)

6) I am assuming you are filling the heli from on top of the tank?

7) repeat from step 3

nice exploit find.. but bloody awful instructional video

It may be faster but it is awefully exposed.

I have three fuel points hidden around the map to refuel the chopper. They have good visibility nearby and a mate often covers me as I refuel incase other players come to investigate.

wouldnt be to bad if youve one or two people in atc tower, one looking south and the other looking up onto the sniper hill, whilst a third is down at the far end of the hangers near the low level industrial looking west

turn off autohover when moving close to ground/buildings unless you want to fuck up the tail from it's spasms

Ya we made a few passes before we landed then we had guys get out and comb the area so we were ok I think

You can take 4 jerry cans and fill and empty them at the same time so it could be faster. Video made by noobs obv.

I"ve tried before. yes you can refill 4 jerry cans in one shot but when you put it in the heli you stlll have to empty each on its own so actually its alot faster to just refill one and empty one and repeat and really what we were getting at was how close to park the chopper as well makes all the difference in the world. I would like to race you LOL I think you will be surprised :)
