    Another JIMJAM review.
I usually shy shy from the concept helis and X planes. Usually they have super exaggerated performance thats just too unbeleivable. Instant acceleration,stops on a dime ect.
But coming from guys with a name like, Pixel Cowboys, its either going to be very bad or very good.
I am happy to say, the Pyro is VERY GOOD.
The VR pit is crisp and clear. The gauges,interor all look polished and alot of time was put into it. No jaggies or bland textures.
The view is also as good as it gets. They were not kidding when they said the Pyro is a perfect aircraft to view scenery from.
FPS on my system was simular to the FSX stock bell except at high speeds. Screaming at 250 plus at tree top level you can expect the same as you would with a fixed wing.
Some stutters and pop ins are expected but I doubt you will be concentrating on anything else other than flying. Its a blast!
Handling- Whooooaa. I had to turn my realism sliders all to mid way. This heli is a Ferrari with blades. Very nimble and very quick. It easily cruises at 250k and feels tight. I have not gotten into any acrobatics but the Pyro has a high performance fighter feel but still maintains that helicopter handling. Its a thin line betreen the two but they pulled it off. The soundset is also very good.
One of the complaints about helis is that they are just too slow and it takes forever to get anywhere. Yet you want the vertical ability and handling.
This heli fills that void perfectly.
5 stars for the Pixel Cowboys..Yeeehhaaaww

    I agree with everything James has said on his review. This is amazingly fun and believeable.
It is very FPS friendly even on my PC that struggles a bit with FSX.
So whats wrong with it? Just one thing - its not available for FS9!
Thats all. Well done Pixel Cowboys.
Regards
Gareth
