Parallel 42 ZM35 Victoria Falls Review Flight in Taog's Hanger UH-1H Huey Microsoft Flight Simulator

[@Dreamsofwings]

Just to clarify, having checked with //42, this version available from them is an updated version of the one already available from Jeppison2001.

[@Dreamsofwings]

Hey many thanks and welcome on board! 🍻

[@thomasnoack5680]

Gorgeous Scenery, gorgeous - one of the most unique and best sounding flying machines ever - and a very well done storytelling. Thank you for 64 minutes entertaining.

[@Dreamsofwings]

Thanks so much! Yes great scenery and a fantastic helicopter going together so well. 🍻

[@AV4Life]

The sound design of the huey! They really did a great job.

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@AV4Life fantastic isn’t it. So atmospheric

[@mathuringarcier]

I must say my jaw dropped... I started the video without any headphones but reading throught the comments made me go fetch mine. And I've enjoyed every single second of this video. The heli is gorgeous in every way, especially in such scenery, and the commentaries are on spot! You've earned a new subscriber.

[@SDFalchetti]

This was amazing! One of those videos that if you saw clips, you wouldn't know if it was real or MSFS2020. Perfect scenery for a helicopter.

[@Dreamsofwings]

Many thanks! 🍻

[@wallisrich]

Good shout on the choice of scenery, now bought it. That'll be the first place I try out my new home made collective when it's finished. Great video... dull spreadsheet on one screen, your YT channel on the other. I love the sound of Huey blade slap in the afternoon.

[@Dreamsofwings]

🤣 thanks so much! Huey blade slap really is something amazing isn’t it!

[@ZenonZolek]

What a great video, your work is always top notch, thank you

[@Dreamsofwings]

Thanks so much! 🍻

[@xCapNunes]

Awesome!!! One of the most beautiful sceneries and one of the most incredible helicopters in the same video, that is outstanding!

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@xCapNunes many thanks! 🍻

[@happypoacher]

ive been flying the huey and i love it, i love the idea of helicopter fly outs and joined the discord so i can hopefully take part 07

[@Dreamsofwings]

Welcome to the Discord!

[@oisiaa]

The sound design of this helicopter is PHENOMENAL especially when you put some g on it.

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@oisiaa yes gorgeous isn’t it. Really puts you there

[@jonathanpadoa8987]

Another cracking video and commentary making me laugh all the way through. I would 100% watch your nature show if you made one. Hahaha

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@jonathanpadoa8987 🤣 many thanks! 🍻

[@Whitesp44]

One of my favorite helicopter sum videos. The interior audio was amazing. That blade slap was spot on. Glad you didn't edit your lack of piloting skills getting on the H. 😂. Just giving you a hard time. Good for you. Scenery was amazing as well. Thanks.

[@Dreamsofwings]

Lol thanks

[@deepredson]

Wonderful video. Now a favourite of mine. Great stuff! Barty

[@Dreamsofwings]

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it 🍻

[@seancaron3323]

Watching this at work because I can’t wait to get home and fly my Huey 😂 the r66 is super fun but I think the Huey is the best one in the game so far. Amazing 👌🏼 Can’t wait for a Toags Blackhawk!

[@Dreamsofwings]

Ah that would be pretty amazing. Love the Blackhawk.

[@wester317]

the view is breathtaking!!❤

[@LesLewis150945]

Nice flight I have this scenery but not flown it yet. I also have the huey and am enjoying it a lot. This could become my favourite when flying by hand so to speak, but the HPG H145 and H160 are when I want to watch the scenery whilst the H145 is for HEMS work. Keep up the good work.

[@Dreamsofwings]

Yes different helos for different purposes, totally agree!

[@douglasrobinson7857]

Thanks very much for a very enjoyable flight with great comments throughout.🤣😎

[@Dreamsofwings]

Hey many thanks! 🍻

[@MonostripeZebra]

really nice huey

[@aidonatorgaming27]

That group flight was awesome i definitely need to pick a faster heli as that cabri struggled to keep up 🤣😅, I don't think them hippos will like my heli flying 😬😂, that guy bungy jumping is a utter nutter definitely won't get me doing that 😂, great vid mate this is easily my favourite //42 scenery definitely a must buy for me same goes for that beautiful huey

[@Dreamsofwings]

Many thanks!

[@aidonatorgaming27]

@@Dreamsofwings your welcome mate 😀

[@rustecr8499]

With all your heliwhoppering I'm genuinely surprised you didn't already have this scenery, it's a cracker.

[@Dreamsofwings]

Honestly hadn’t heard of it!

[@dustie_zw]

I live in Victoria Falls 🇿🇼 and this looks great pretty close to being accurate 😂 never seen a Huey there 😅😅 but this scenery looks great

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@dustie_zw what a great place to live!

[@dannymoore8785]

That is some outstanding scenery....and cheap!

[@Dreamsofwings]

Yes for what you get it is very good value:

[@40bc47]

For all its faults it’s crazy to see how much better MSFS 24’s ground textures look. Which, since I fly mainly helicopters, is a huge plus for me. I just can’t go back to 2020 for that reason

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@40bc47 I know exactly what you mean. I get that 2024 has issues etc but that low level, low speed flying is perfect for the new detail.

[@ToBCreations]

Nice! 😊👍Seeing this I'm really looking forward to what the scenery in MSFS 2024 has to offer.

[@Dreamsofwings]

Thanks, yes I know what you mean!

[@BenProg]

nice chemtrail addon !

[@Mimiclobster]

Hi, thanks for the video. I noticed the contrails in your sky and was curious which add on can give you contrails. Thx

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@Mimiclobster many thanks! The contrails are part of Parallel 42’s Simfx

[@Mimiclobster]

@@Dreamsofwings thank you!

[@SerialDelta]

A great vid mate and I'm sure I'll be checking out this area.. I'm not a Huey Pilot, just a mechanic. Might have flew a few minutes while the Pilot adjusted his back side... It does tend to give you a numb bum trust me. I'm not sure if this will work in sim but to get max wok try decent from a few hundred feet at 60 knots and just slide her to the left a little. Blade slap from the ground is awesome in real life. Have Sub'd 😘

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@SerialDelta hey many thanks! I will have to try that. Must be wonderful to work on such a truly iconic helicopter with so much character.

[@SerialDelta]

@@Dreamsofwings They were the best days of my life mate.. oh and add to the max wok recipe 18 PSI Torque... I forgot that bit lol

[@dermolado3351]

Super scenery

[@Dreamsofwings]

Fantastic isn’t it!

[@chickenstrip23]

Great Video love this Heli!

[@Dreamsofwings]

Many thanks! Yes the Huey is superb isn’t it.

[@sssebyy]

If you start getting stutters, first try delete the rolling cache. My MSFS became a stutter fest and I checked all my hardware but only when I deleted the rolling cache it went beautifully smooth again. I now have done manual cache of places that are demanding and I fly regularly like London! New York etc.

[@Gruby7C1h]

This looks great :) Have you used Huey in DCS maybe and could compare flight model?

[@Dreamsofwings]

I have got the Huey in DCS but not flown it since I learned to fly helicopters. There is a video of my attempt at that buried in the channel lol

[@adr1uno638]

Question, does this huey relly on the CFD system and does it really simulate the semi-rigid rotor, or is it the rigid rotor simulation with added lag ?

[@Dreamsofwings]

It does use the MSFS CFD system, with regards to the semi-rigid rotor vs a rigid rotor unfortunately I don't have an answer for that.

[@SunRunner-TVchannel]

Super puper Yea. I like CH47.

[@nbrettoner]

58:12 I still find the 135 my favourite. Nice usually predictable and stable flight characteristics and behavior.

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@nbrettoner I have that one for model matching but never flown it! Am I right in thinking it still has the custom HPG flight model?

[@nbrettoner]

@@Dreamsofwings Yep I think so. You mean the livery eh?

[@Dreamsofwings]

No the simulated flight model that HPG devised before Asobo developed their own for MSFS helicopters. I need to try it again sometime

[@harfentoni7463]

I happened to record exactly the same video yesterday, only with the scenery from IniBuilds and with an MD500E helicopter, with a bit more action. This isn't meant to be an advertisement, I just wanted to mention it because it's funny. The scenarios look very similar though. Why do they do things twice?

[@TheScudrace]

Isn't there even yet another (third?) Victoria Falls scenery? I recall making a photo story of it a year ago or so on Reddit...

[@Dreamsofwings]

It’s from the same dev…..same item on IniBuilds by same dev.

[@harfentoni7463]

@@Dreamsofwings ah, I understand about this Jeppsen, then Niagara Falls will be coming soon, also a brilliant scenery

[@raslionraslion]

GOOD GOOD

[@buikhan]

How is this different from the other payware?

[@Dreamsofwings]

It’s the same one as on IniBuilds. Jeppison2001

[@saren6538]

Is this for helicopter only ?

[@hrbeta]

Any aircraft will do.

[@Dreamsofwings]

Yes there are bush strips too as you saw in the video

[@xeldinn86]

I wish I had the money for peripherials. I would love a collective and rudder pedals. I have a joystick but meh

[@Dreamsofwings]

Pedals for helicopters is a game changer for sure. I’ve not got a collective yet but would love one!

[@dustie_zw]

36:37 that helipad doesn’t exist in real life though 😂😂That location is were they do abseiling

[@TheWindowSeatTraveler]

Hoooooow can you fly a heli this smooth in MSFS?

[@Dreamsofwings]

That’s very kind of you but I still have a way to go. Honestly some of best advice I ever saw for practicing was from HeliSimmer and that was to fly something like a circuit pattern and just practice that to get used to handling.

[@TheWindowSeatTraveler]

@@Dreamsofwings Great! Thanks for the answer. Anything special in terms of control settings and stuff like that?

[@Dreamsofwings]

@mrflightsimulator3335 not really as it all varies depending on what controllers you are using. I have a warthog grip on a 15cm extension to a Virpil Warbrd base and with that setup I don’t currently have any curves set up. For me it is really key to have that instant input as flying helos is all about lot’s of tiny inputs to stay on top of it.

[@Williamk492]

10:32 these little glitches haven’t been dealt with since the first Microsoft flightsims came out.

[@alectw]

Contrails haha..looks more like chemtrails to me😉

[@Dreamsofwings]

🤣 oh blimey, don’t start that off here 🤣

[@alectw]

@@Dreamsofwings haha okay fair 😂😂

[@gwalker3092]

Very impressive but your only use it once…

[@CliveDavis-jp4eh]

Hardly new. This is a re-release of the Jeppeson2001 scenery with a few small updates as they are now part of the //42 catalog according to //42 website. Great scenery. Glad it's getting some attention.

[@Dreamsofwings]

Yes. Have pointed that out in reply to other comments.
