As I start upgrading my system in anticipation of Battlefield 2, I am still playing the Mods for Battlefield 1942.

I would really like to learn how to fly the helicopters, but I usually quit after 30-60 minutes worth of frustration.

I've got the crashing part down real good, you could say I am an expert at it.

Now, I would like to actually fly these stupid things for longer than 20 seconds.

Anybody have any hints/tips/suggestions? I have read a couple of tutotials on the net, but they haven't helped much. I usually end up spinning out of control and crashing. I just can't see to graps the concepts of this to correctly control and use the helicopter during gameplay.

I am using a Logitech Attack3 joystick.

Suggestion would be greatly appreciated!
