Level 11, take off and hold right until you crash into the first try. Retry. Do the same thing. You can't retry the level even though you crashed. You need to wait until the battery dies. Bug?
I would suggest that the heli only goes up / down / left / right when the keys are pressed. When you let go the heli stops, allowing you to hover. Maybe slow down the speed too, add the ability to press SHIFT with the directional keys if you want to go "fast". Would give a lot more control. Neat game though. :)
Don't be weak, you get over it :)
