Hello Tailstrike!
Thank you for the submission of information to make DCS UH-1H better!
I would like to go over the points you made and details with them. My experience with the UH-1 is that I am a mechanic working on one. Today I was in the process of rebuilding the tail rotor.
Point 1
Agreed.
Agreed.
I have to check. I don't think you pointing to the right spot. No gap will be on the inside of the blade grip.
Point 2
I think the gearbox is fairly detailed. I was working on it today IRL. Whats is missing?
Part 3
Depends on Fuel and cargo load on how the Huey will sit on the ground. Also the picture your using as a reference has the wheels installed. I cannot tell if there is weight on them. When the wheels are used to lift the UH-1 it will lower the tail a foot or so.
The skids are in the sunk in concrete because when you land on grass the skids sink into the grass. I cant talk for the developers, I would assume this is a halfway solution for the time being.
The model was created from blueprints and maintenance manuals. Also from the tester's private photos taken for BST by request. I have over 5 GB of information I uploaded for them. Trust me when I tell you, BST and ED have better information sources than the internet can provide.
Point 4
ft!"
The 1st half of this is information I cannot say. I fix them, I do not fly them.
The 2nd half? Yes, it seesaws? It definitely can transmit torque to the main shaft.
But here is a Huey hanging or dangling from its Hub.
