Very hard, yet fun and addicting

This game has one of the steepest learning curves to ever meet the Playstation. It is unbelieveably realistic and can be a very fun game if you have the skills for it. The training mode is very helpful and must be used in order to play the game. RC Stunt Copter may cause frustration at first, but given time, can be a very fun and realistic simulation.

A great surprise!

This game really surprised me in a couple of ways.

I kept hearing it was really hard and frustrating, but I just went through the training first, and it helped me get my skills up high enough to manage just fine. Then I slowly made my way up to harder and harder copters. Great sense of progression!

Something I didn't expect at all was the humor. There is a voice giving surprisingly intelligent feedback to just about everything you do, and he's really funny. And there's a 'virtual' hand you can throw up to block the screen when you're playing against someone else in the 2-player mode.

And the whole time you're learning to fly a real r/c helicopter! I've never flown one myself, but now that I can manage the Ace copter in this game, I can't wait to give it a try with a real one, and maybe even buy one myself if I can afford it.

Very unique...a great breath of fresh air!

The toy I always wanted!

I cannot believe how cool this is! It's a Remote Control Helicopter Simulator. I have been begging to get a real r/c helicopter, but they cost a fortune.

I had no idea that you could learn to fly one using your Playstation. It's tough, but after taking the lessons I was doing tricks all over the place.

This is easily the most original game I have ever played, and when I finally can afford the real thing, I am going to have saved a fortune in crashes.

I very highly recommend this if you are a decent gamer.

a different genre

This has got to be one of the most original games ever! It can get frustrating at times but it pays off in the end. The makers say you will not finish the game and to me it's that much of a job!

A Fun little game

This unique little game lets you fly rc helicopters, it involes the use of both joysticks to piolt you copter though the different trials. It's pretty fun, but with there isn't a whole lot to do in the game. If it had an battle mode or something...

Annoying game, could have been better

The first thing your going to do when you play this game is mute your TV. Almost any move you attempt will cause your virtual instructor to make some kind of comment. This gets real old, real fast, aspecially when you realize how difficult it is to fly one of the RC Copters.
Any little tap on the controls, sends your copter out of control, so the last thing you need to hear is none stop, repeaded joking comments.

The layout of this game sucks. Your restricted to a little peice of land for each stage, so if your looking for a game where you can fly around and explore, then this is not your game.

I personally have never flown a remote controlled copter before, but if this game is accurate, then I'm not ever going to waste my money on something that will end up having an ultimate destiny of being smashed to pieces out of frustration.

So is this game worth it? Maybe, if you get it really, really, really cheap, or if you have already mastered remote controlled copters in the real world. If they make another one of these games, then they need to add a whole lot more to it. Some may like it, but I don't.

No stars!

Heli Flight

Heli flight is 10x more difficult than model airplanes. The training program on this game is great. If it didn't have that automatic help, you'd be all over the place. Like starting out with an ace helicopter. This game does in fact help you fly REAL model helis. The only catch is, you MUST use the dual shock analog controller and use the two joysticks and become efficient with the ace helicopter(s). It's also not just a trainer for going into model flight, it's also a challenge and great fun. I have a helicopter and this game does help out a lot. Or, if you have an Intel Pentium, you can go to ... and get a REAL FLIGHT Simulator for about ... and you can really see what it's like. That'll be a LOT more REALISTIC than this game but this PSX game does help out a lot.

A GREAT GAME

I bought this game knowing I'd love it, and I was right, this game is AWESOME. The controls are realistic and generally the physics are. But this game is NOT for everyone, only for those who would really be in this sort of thing. You might also just want to give it a try, who knows, you might wind up loving it.

Yes, this game is a little tough and, ive been told, actually made a Monk yell. That said, it has taught my kid to fly a little model copter, better than the simulator disk it came with.

BUT... i was given this game by a 'Rainbow Six Vegas' nut who told me to play it...live it and it would improve my FPS skills. It has greatly improved my hand to eye coordination. I am buying it for myself asap to touch up my sniping on COD4.

GET THIS GAME if you like or want to fly model copters.
GET THIS GAME and serve the other team some nice clean HEAD SHOTS!!!
DONT get this game if you occasionally toss controllers. Ive gone through several.
