From Dawn to Dusk, there’s plenty of things to explore at Rotor Creek. We have well lit dispersals and helipads so you can level up your flying skills throughout the hours of darkness.

Have you successfully landed on the Small Stack yet? 😃

Have you found the confined zones at Rotor Creek yet? If you have, show us your best screenshots - we'd love to see them!

Hint: these two helipad platforms (one small and large) are located on the South-West boarder of the airfield boundary, hidden amongst the trees.

In addition, we've made the trees solid objects in these areas so we suggest you keep an eye on your rotors on the way down 😀

Up and away from the refuelling station. Ready to test the handling qualities of the H145. Being a virtual test pilot can be very rewarding!

Rotor Creek offers the largest variety of helipads compared to any other scenery on the market. Fancy practicing your quick stops? We have two runways to help, with one that includes markers so you can determine your distance from start to end!

Have you attempted the Rotor Creek Challenges yet? Marc and Holger have, and they passed with flying colours.

Marc and Holger demonstrated spectacular flying aptitude back in September 2021 and we decided to give them the recognition they deserve with their Official Diamond Rotor Rating Certificates💎 Congratulations both. We're aware many of you are already at Bronze Rotor Rating, so keep practicing, we have faith you'll achieve your Diamond Rotor Rating soon!

Flying helicopters is extremely challenging but highly rewarding so show us what you've got and we'll give you a shout out and send you your Official Certificate on successful completion of the courses. Don't forget to add to your post. Happy flying!

Thank you!

A huge thank you to everyone who has supported us over the last few days since the release (and before). Sharing your content and enjoying the challenges Rotor Creek has to offer makes us extremely proud!

We have more plans for future scenery - of course, dedicated to the helicopter community but our current focus is supporting you all with Rotor Creek for the time being.

We will be taking a short breather for the next week (will still be around but a little quieter than usual).

Happy Flying!

Rotor Creek is planned to be released NEXT WEEK!

A huge thank you to the University of Liverpool - Division of Aerospace Engineering, Flight Science and Technology for working around the clock and completing our Beta testing. We're excited to share some of their results below.

Our aim from the get-go was to provide a useful training ground for helicopter pilots to sharpen their skills. Whether you're brand new to flying, or have thousands of hours flight time - you'll be sure to find enough challenges at Rotor Creek. Although we don't have a specific release date, our plan is to release Rotor Creek on the market next week (week commencing 30th August) so stay tuned!

Happy Flying!

Breaking the 'No Fly Zone' rules at Rotor Creek.

We had to purchase the new Lama... and we can confirm it's incredibly fun to fly at Rotor Creek! With many unique obstacles to land and balance on - this set-up is a real treat for all helicopter simmers.
