See some amazing plugins for max and maya that will animate helicopters and airplanes automatically
Things with Wings

Craft Airplane Extended can animate any fixed-wing aircraft with physical excellence. The flight behavior of your particular model can be simulated inside of 3ds Max and Maya, and the entire flight is recorded in keyframes in real time.

Why?
Because faking it is too expensive and time consuming. It also doesn't look very good.

 

 This plugin will simulate any airplane model you have inside of 3ds max and maya. 3D animation just got easier because the physical behavior of an airplane can now be simulated in minutes.Read more about this plugin

Helicopters
The obvious way to use this plugin is to animate a helicopter. Any type of Helicopter; big, small, fast or slow.

The less obvious use is to film a scene from the perspective of a helicopter

It's a way of showing the world from a bird's eye view in a believable, real-world fashion.

 
   
Weightless Things

Free movement in any direction.

Watch out because this is a very powerful tool. Any camera or object can be guided by Craft ZeroGCam in weightless flight.

Why?
This effect is time consuming and imprecise when you try to do it yourself. What would take others a week, we can do in an hour.

 

 Craft ZeroGCam is a plugin that simulates weightless motion. Use this plugin to animate space ships or satelites in space.Read more about this plugin
 
Craft Missile is only part of our artillary collection. This is a plugin that will simulate the behavior of a missile as it is fired. Guided or off-the-mark; we can simulate your missile and capture the motion in key-frames.Read more about this plugin. 
Craft Missile

With Craft Missile you can fire rockets, missiles and even fireworks at the touch of a button. Firing multiple missiles from an aircraft is no problem at all. We also have solutions for recoil and delayed propulsion.

Above all, we have guidance systems so that the missiles hit their intended targets.

Why
Because the force is strong with us
