You just need to get some practice like everyone before they get good at flying the choppers. What i did ted was go into our server when it was on valparaiso and praciticed using the chopper on the attacking side, after about 20 mins I got it pretty down pat, from then i just used in game flying to better my skills at it. I will very rarely screw up landing or getting sniped out or hit by an rpg, i can dodge them pretty well. Unless im hovering, or flying low, then you get taken down **** fast, but it is sometimes the best way to hold an area or take an objective. Gotta take one for team.
