I flew in a Helipro BK 117 the other day and was wondering if anyone knows of a good place to get one for FSX . I've had a quick look but cant seem to find one. Any help would be appreciated.

The BK-117 is now the Eurocopter EC-145. They are nearly the same in appearance. The EC-145 is available for FSX but it is payware, however it is very well done...

Ec145 i dont know of any payware one if there is drop a link in here to it please ,there is a ec135 nemeth payware ,as for the Bk117 there is the Icaro fs2004 model that ports over to fsx ,by changing the airfile and renaming it or using HTR profile it works well too .

vid has Icaro bk117 that i ported over to X in it.

what changes do you recommend doing to port it over so it works ok in FSX ?

Cheers

Yes the airfile in the main aircraft folder ,copy from another rotorcraft and rename it the same as the bk117 one and replace making a backup of course before changes ,which changes the aircraft dynamics ,just so happens i swap my out for the ec135 nemeth one ,there is also a rain effect swap out for fs9 i use from memory i got that from flight1.com ,blade textures i have never really sorted out on some port overs they never really bother me though ..
another way is HTR helicopter addon dynamics from hovercontrol.com ,make a profile based on measurements from blueprints and let it take over like a dodosim helicopter

also ive just reinstalled lately and forgot my bk117 back up ,the chances are i dont not have the paint anymore
hope this helps alittle

Nice screens Five0 , good as a freeware but sure a later model is in the works .
