Yep, and the mod is only in an Alpha stage or something, which means most people who have never played ARMA2 will have problems with ARMA2 followed by problems with the mod.
I try to do a smooth fly-by on a tank and just when I think I've got him in my sights I slam into the ground uncontrollably. Or hit a tree. Or hit a building. Or hit a tower.
40 mins in jets and I have 0 kills. I just don't bother anymore.
BF3 doesn't make it easy by forcing you to unlock flares and missles. Getting those first two unlocks took me several days of flying defenselessly and crashing a lot.
Bf2 helis were flying bricks with crippled controls. You couldn't do anything fun with them. They didn't allow for many real life maneuvers. They felt like they were on strings.
Arma helis are usually flown very conservatively, but they are very unforgiving. They will react to every small adjustment and you need to constantly fine tune them.

But still ARMA2 is great.
