  1. That is fine DarthExia, I understand. I don't think she would be available since she enrolled in a flight school with the French Army and from what I know it looks like she is very busy. However, I shall let her know. Thank you for your email. kind Regards foxit
  2. Hi 47_Driver, I just stumbled upon your comment on the DCS forum and I am so glad that a pilot who actually flies the CH47 decided to tackle the critics on the DCS forum. As a civilian helicopter engineer, now retired, contracted by the RAAF I had the opportunity to participate to the upgrade standard (in 1993/95) of four CH47Cs subsequently delivered to the Army in 1995. This was the most challenging and enjoyable project of my entire engineering career.

    Therefore I do understand the complexity of the aircraft, even thou I never worked on the F model, I also understand how daunting it must be to translate this A/C into a flyable virtual model. The ED team attached to this model have already done a fantastic job with the unit we already have to fly with. We should be humbled by these achievements for what they have ahead is a real challenge. This aircraft is a piece of art, and if the DCS pilots really want to learn how to fly an helicopter, this is the time NOW with the CH-47F.

    As my instructor said..."Keep practicing your over"

    Cheers Mate

  3. Thank very much Lau for your messages. Since I am not a member I doubt that I shall be allowed to contact anyone directly. However I shall try to follow your instructions. I do not have the Discord app and unlikely to get it due to few scam issues and it would be unfair from me to bring along some nasty hackers into a squadron. Once again, thank you for your help Kind Regards foxit
  4. Ref: JTF-13 158th Helicopter Logistics Squadron. Dear McFly, My granddaughter "Foxit22" arrived in Australia six months ago from France to learn English and obtain an Australian ATPL on helicopters and would like to know if it would be possible to join the JTF-13 158th Helicopter Logistics Squadron training program and to connect with likeminded pilots to enhance her helicopter experience. I am taking her through the CH-47 and the Australian ATC procedures at this stage. Her Australian logbook shows 9hrs on R22, 27hrs on R44, 6hrs on AS355 and 3hrs on EC135. Best Regards foxit Please reply to my email address: foxit2347@gmail.com
  5. Have you tried to press the T/OFF trim switch? Release the switch when off the ground and trim the aircraft "down".
  6. Hi cfrag, I would like to know if it is possible to include in my created mission script(Lua) the RTB of an aircraft once the mission has reached a specific stage.

    Kind Regards

      Hey foxit,

         thank you for your message. What is the exact question you are asking, and what have you tried already so we can build on that?

       

      Cheers,

      I apologize Cfrag......I just discovered your message (better late than never). I found the answer anyway and thank you for contacting me. Cheers Mate

  7. Hi LeCuvier, I use the same rig as you. MAXsenna seams to have the answer. I also noticed that if I get killed with the throttle in any power setting and restart the flight, I find my throttle in the same setting I had when I left the flight. So now I bring the throttle fully back before exiting. It does the trick so far. I don't think this is a dcs issue but more of a controller program. Cheers
  8. I agree Panda, no curve!!! But don't get too excited about the fssb, the difference is negligible. Cheers
  9. I had the same issue with the "Sync Cockpit Ctrls at mission start" unchecked!!! So I checked it and it worked. Funny that. Cheers.
  10. The static droop of the anti-torque system (T/Rotor) is excessive and does not match the Hind behavior in real flight. I have the impression to fly a Ka-50 which uses the differential torque (T is a function of P and Nr) from both main rotors to produce a yaw, where the droop is justified, or flying an upset caw with its tail flapping from side to side. Also, a light hard landing can set the aircraft on fire; these aircrafts are built like a brick shit-house and are not sensitive to small impacts. However, this aircraft is challenging to fly, thank you DCS.
