Choppers disappearing in df1 ???

I am making a tdm map for df1 using dfmed, i am using the ice floes terrain (dfm13.trn) and it's a day map. The map size is 34.2kb.

I have inserted a chopper (blackhawk) into my map and set it to follow some waypoints whilst killing any players on the map that it encounters. While i am hosting map the chopper cycles waypoints ok and attacks everyone. The problem is that everyone else on the map can only see the chopper briefly after it's killed them and then it disappears straight up into the sky and outta distance. To me the chopper kills the enemy then follows it's waypoints again. I tried getting a m8 to host the map and the same thing happened, he could see chopper ok, but i could only hear it and would only see it briefly once it killed me.

This problem disappears when i set the chopper to friendly, it cycles it's waypoints and everyone can see it fine. Is it possible to have a chopper set to kill players on the map with them being able to see it ok?

I have a fast processor, good graphics card and a 1mb cable internet connection. I tried various things like taking everything out of the map except chopper details and player start points and also using the gazelle chopper but it has made no difference !

This has really got me puzzled and would really appreciate any advice.
Many thx in advance

sorry but thats one mad chopper hit and run really fast may the speed that is set is to high on the move try to set the speed lower

it move in for the kill real fast at this point making the kill its i think it slow down after it done killing off go back to moving super fast again check whats the speed it is set at in the map editor then play with it try to set it lower setting for movement
it follow the way point at a set speed.also too much fog can do the same thing as hard to see it think as this way the fog is as high as the hilltop if the chopper go higher then the hills it can't be seen.

Thx for the reply, the chopper is set at 35 kph throughout it's waypoints. I've tried slowing it down to like even 10kph which is really slow and the same thing happens. Also, there is no fog in my map. So i still have a problem............
