Missile avoidance tactics in helicopters

[SOHC_VTEC]

Dodging a missile in a jet is a piece of cake, try doing the same in a helicopter is quite the opposite.

 

I try to use tall buildings (when possible) staying high, then drop altitude last second to make the missile hit building, but when it comes to open spaces, I'm at a loss, especially when projectiles are coming in from the 6.

 

Any proficient heli pilots with good defensive tactics here? Please share some good maneuvers for dodging incoming missiles in open environments as well as tight city environments.

Distance is the key.

Close the gap between you and enemy, and missiles will miss 90% of the time.

Banking in conjunction with rudder turning will help shake locks.

Don't think that pitching around will save you in this instance until the very last second, focus on roll and yaw while lowering altitude. (LT+rolling Left(or Right)+LB(RB), or if you are on PS3, (L1+Left or RIght+L2 or R2 (Unless I got the driving controls wrong on PS3)) Once the missile is close, pitch down to present a smaller profile.
