Missing Autorotation feature?

Don't think that'd be so much of an auto rotation problem if the tail rotor is in place, seems more like a problem of the helos having super cushioning technology ahead of schedule.

That, and they are super light, as they glide down, instead of coming down like rocks.

Ghostile, that is called autorotation and not a bug, but that's a little like in reallife.
Given, you need speed for autorotation, so it's not moddeled correctly in game. But I'd see that as one of the least problems we have with choppers at the moment.
