    Being new to the Steam Community, I wish there was more of a direct support as to how to navigate through the platform, so one can start game play ASAP .... never heard of Add On's with Steam and Microsoft before, and trying to set it all up for the first time is challenging ....

    Good Lord what a waste of money. Gauges don't work, not even close to realistic flight. Come on Steam....stop scamming people with your bullshit DLC.

    Average, nothing overly impressive. Half the switches are inop. Not my favorite purchase for $17.99....

    Everybody, The Gauges DO Work!!!!!!!!! YOu just have to flip the switch in the bottom right that says MFD!

    I initially liked the look of this DLC, however I have the following comments. The aircraft is easy to fly, however a huge downfall, especially for a paid addition is a complete lack of cockpit screens or dials. There is no way to view the speed details etc, so the experience ends up quite bare. If I'd known I would not have downloaded this DLC. It needs more cockpit detail.

    The graphics are cool and good, plus all the hard work that goes into to making this one hell of an aircraft. But, I feel they kinda missed something, I the aerodynamics of the aircraft is a little off. First flying is no problem its just the landing is the thing, it preforms like an airplane in those cases. Coming in for a landing, instead of slowing down once you've pitched up it gains altitude and more speed. I feel like its a great concept just needs more tuning then in my opinion it would worth the money you guys are asking for. Right now you guys are saling off of the name alone but the preformance of the aircraft sucks once thats address it would be nice lil helicopter

    I love worth the money the gauges are not on at start you just have to press the MFD button on your right. The apache fly's well and is a great addition to the game.

    I'm pretty new to flight sims and flying (planes or helicopters) in general. However in my limited FSX, XP11 and DCX experience (and my time reading the FAA rotorcraft flight manual), I have to say the physics in this model are off. This thing flies like a fighter jet, not a helicopter. Pulling back on the cyclic shouldn't make you gain altitude with the speed of an F-16...especially when the collective is all the way down. Yet, that's exactly what happens. Trying to nose-down to get some forward speed results in you plummeting towards the ground (even if your collective is full-up). As far as recommendations go, I'd say *maybe* for the current $9 sale price, definitely not for the $18 full price. I'll try reading the manual and seeing if I'm missing something.

    I would say that I recommend this IF on sale only. It is modeled nicely, and fun to fly, but missing a lot of cockpit interactivity and functionality. It’s a very basic representation without (if I’m not mistaken it should have?j a HUD. Full price is just too much to ask.

    An tremendous waste of money, near to none of the switches and gauges work, flight dynamics are unrealistic, the weapons aren't functioning and the sound effects are terrible

    The screens work, just flip the MFD switch on the right. Many switches dont work like most standard planes in fsx I thought it was alright for what it was, but i requested a refund because i didnt think the detail inside the cockpit was up to 18$ standards

    Took a few attempts to figure out how to get the mfds and lights on, read the manual! Would suggest the author defaults them to on as the aircraft appears already started ready to fly, but without the mfds on, in the dark cockpit it's hard to find the lights switches.....?. Good value at the sale price.
