    Post 17 Warning old domain name stealing credentials

  • IMPORTANT INFORMATION - ALL MEMBERS PLEASE READ

    Due to an increase in the number of new members who are trying to systematically download our entire Resource Library (one new member yesterday tried to download 3,000+ files AT ONCE!) we are being forced to implement some changes regarding who can download what, how many files at a time and at what speed. As the forums and Resource Library share the same bandwidth when the Library gets overloaded with demand like that the forums fall over, as we have all seen recently. It's sad that greed has forced our hand in this way but we must do something for the benefit of all our legitimate members (many of whom paid money for the upkeep of the site) and to prevent the files stored here being used for nefarious purposes. Many of our uploads have specific conditions tied to them that forbid uploading to any other site or deny uploading to any site that has a 'paywall' (i.e. a pay to download policy). Due to the number of mass download attempts recently we can only assume that somebody, somewhere, is attempting to stock up a new file library with our files and we owe it to our up-loaders to protect their files and intellectual property especially as many (like my own LDR Development projects) are made available at SOH only and are specified as such in the 'read me' files.

    The forums and Resource Library will be taken offline as of 13:00 EDT with the forums coming back online shortly after without the resources library while we work on setting up permissions on the new Library module.

    We hope our members understand why we need to do this and will bear with us while we implement the changes.

    Thanks in anticipation, SOH ADMINISTRATION

    Downloads are now active. You may proceed with downloading as desired

    The download limits are a work in progress. Some settings are likely to need tweaking in the coming days.

It has been years since HoverControl (HC) closed shop. They left a gaping hole in the heart of the helicopter community that has yet to be filled.
The various HC files are scattered about the different flight sim sites, with no clear listing of what is where.

I recently found an old post by @MrZippy with a link to HoverControl.com on the Internet Archive Wayback Machine:

Helicopter Simulator

A huge website filled with files and information for helicopter simulator users and those that enjoy helicopter games.
web.archive.org

I was able to download and run the installer for a couple of the aircraft, so it appears the site is available and usable to some degree.

Glad this archive isn't lost for good, or at least, not for now.

Enjoy!
 
I tried to download a couple of files from the wayback machine but all I got was a message saying the files weren't archived! :(
