LuckyStar Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 So.... finally got the Gyro Copter. Sooooo excited... till I tried to fly it. That's insane! I don't get how to fly the damn thing. Couldn't get anywhere. Nearly killed myself.... got stuck on a sign... then a horde showed up so... yeah... I finally put it away and decided to stick to the 4x4 [which is AWESOME btw!] Just wondering if anyone has gotten the hang of flying that crazy contraption.

e1ghtbit Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 The thing that sucks about the gyro is that spacebar is to angle up but it's also the brakes so you lose speed when trying to take off. You lose altitude when in flight if you tap spacebar to angle up too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You lose altitude when in flight if you tap spacebar to angle up too. That's kind of an odd configuration. Maybe I'll mess with the settings a bit and see if I can't make the damn thing viable.

Zourin Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 I don't know about the 4x4, but the motorcycle is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ awesome. Funny, I like the bicycle too since it's a quiet little bugger that's good for night travel. the minibike is.. a horrid creature born of distilled desperation and rust.

Sonozaki Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Need speed then press space to fly off don't too much angle up when you in air C is angle down and when is move forward (ofc in air) speed up is right shift . And if you wanna go down i personally just not press anyting and is going down slow and safe.. that's all i know have fun P.s: sorry for bad English Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vechs Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 I gave myself a gyro just to try it out, couldn't figure out how to take off. Thing seemed broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Data Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 It's easy Press w to accelerate and hold space for few seconds Then when enough speed you will tilt backwards raising the copter Then press c to level out You will always go forward because of the rear blades A and d rotates Then when you want to go down press c to tilt forward and just before you touch ground press space to level and press s to decrease speed then e to exit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would add that the gyrocopter isn't a vtol aircraft. It needs runway to take off. If you're good, you can do a vertical landing, but you'll still need room to take off again. Forward to accelerate, space to nose up, C to nose down, shift to 'boost' (?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secateurs Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 It's not bad, a bit slow but so are all the vehicles now. Probably because the old minibike outran the speed of loading chunks. I was looking forward to having a roof airstrip but bases are kind of out ATM ...and my game crashes on horde night. looking forward to finding a use for it though, aside from late game boredom relief.

grieferbastard Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 The 4x4 is amazing. I admit - I still love tooling around on the bike more but the tankiness and storage of the 4x4 and its ability to just plow through zeds is good clean family fun. By which I mean violent, bloody zombie murder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vedui Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Yeah. I kept looping all the time ... turns out holding space to go up is the wrong approach, gotta use space to bring the nose up so you then fly up. It's not a helicopter ascent kind of thing. And c to point it down. After doing that, it suddenly became manageable! /V - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not just mouse up / mouse down tilt the nose up and down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand though, I've figured out LOTS of ways to crash one! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RestInPieces Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Haven't tried it yet, looks something out of a flight simulator! Will probably become a fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
