CVARS, aka Czech Virtual Air Rescue Service, is a well-organised bunch of guys, who would fly all kinds of air rescue, humanitarian, or speciall occasion (eg. Dakar Tour - flying support for Rallye Paris-Dakar teams in formerly Africa, now South America). These guys are pretty professional, and pretty good, at least by virtuals standarts :) and they are having a skill race in helos.

Wow, I love how FSX simulate the head movements I'd like to see CVARS in action,are they working in IVAO? We got here in the israeli division the Virtual desert Birds,working with S-70 blackhawks specialized in rescues,of course they are based on the real Desert Birds (123 squadron),unfortunately they aren't really active lately.

Thats sounds like some thing similar like I have, how do you control the collective for the rotor blades?

Good ole throttle is fine enough.
And Yes, CVARS are IVAO positive fellas. Seek CVZ c/s in LKAA FIR (btw. seek CVI for me, and at time, only me, nobody else seems to use the c/s :) )

I never got the hand of coordinating a stick with twist-grip, and I got the Rescue Pilot mission add-on for FSX which use a helicopter for several of the missions.
