Just retried. Auto unhook set only just before unload. And unload very low. Message history shows it works. So solved. Thanks.

ok, thanks.

Cargo auto unhook does not work. In attached mission test. In Oilfield and crew campaign missions. With covers open or close. autounhook.trk Mi-8MTV2 - IA - Mariana - Mycargo.miz

Tested with mission editor. Attached mission test. Ramp hot start. F Key (clutch release) before takeoff. Changing only time to 0h45 or 12h45 in Mission Editor. Day: 12h45 altitude Autopilot works. Night: 0h45 altitude autopilot does not work. Enjoy. Mi-8MTV2 - IA - Mariana - Mycargo.miz

Ok, so tested with mission editor. It's a DCS MI-8 problem, not your campaign. Attached mission test. Ramp hot start. F Key (clutch release) before takeoff. Changing only time to 0h45 or 12h45 in Mission Editor. Day: 12h45 altitude AP works. Night: 0h45 altitude AP does not work. Mi-8MTV2 - IA - Mariana - Mycargo.miz

1.3Salon Night Extreme Autopilot altitude does not work Autopilot altitude does not work in this mission. For artic missions, it works (after F key 'clutch release'). In mission 1.2Salon, it works. Is this voluntary ?

Thanks. With a ~3000 Kgs sling load it will be still difficult enough IMOO regarding weather.

Having always generator failures in the oil platform aera. (I've done Oilfield Campaign with numerous Sling mission without such problems). Temp -30 C. Takeoff weigth default is 8600 Kgs on the helipad (37% fuel). (0% fuel gives 7887 Kgs). Sling load pipes 4350 Kgs. Total: 12950 Kgs This to heavy regarding max takeoff weight charts with Anti-Ice (-1000 Kg). Max load should be 13000 Kgs - 1000 Kg (hover 20 meter -30C - anti-ice). Headwing increases 10m/s +1200 kg but for safety should not be fully used, mission wind ground speed is 6m/s. Max load should be 13000 - 1000 - 8600 = 3400 Kg. Is something wrong in above computation ?

From the gound it's easier to show the problem. Pilot view key 1 Trim right and aft like in hover. Control helper shows trimmed position. Physical FFB stick follows. Key 3 Chief Engineer view Control helper shows stick centered and FFB stick follows: it's centered. Pilot view key 1: Control helper shows trimmed position. Physical FFB stick follows. Key 3 Chief Engineer view Control helper shows stick centered and FFB stick follows: it's centered. Pilot view key 1 Reset trim button. Control helper shows trimmed position. Physical FFB stick follows. Another workarround: Key 3 Chief Engineer view Reset trim button in Chief Engineer view Pilot view key 1 Control helper shows stick centered and FFB stick follows: it's centered. mi8trimbug.trk

To have back stick in control helper view in sync with physical position, need to toggle attached AP switch in control panel. It's not related to saturation, or swap axis. It's related to move to chief engineer view and leave. Like in the ""Pedals staying forever-trimmed by AI pilot even when "Pedals Trimmer" special option is OFF" post.

Hum, trim does not work with 3rd in list. Just tried. But Behavior is the same, stable hoover without trimming, use chief engineer view and back to pilot. Stick neutral but still in trimmed position as before moving to chief engineer view (hover position).

VPforce FFB Rhino. FFB set. FFB tune trimmer 100%. X and Y have Y saturation 75%. In option special, set Control Helper and AP adjustment Take off and hover (no trim used). From pilot view to chief engineer view (key 3) Now see the stick moves mid travel from left to rigth and reversed, same aft and forward. Let's twist again... Track attached. huh.trk

VPforce FFB Rhino. FFB set. FFB tune trimmer 100%. X and Y have Y saturation 75%. Control helper window. Trim when in a stable hover. From pilot view to chief engineer view (key 3) Now from chief engineer view to pilot view (key 1) Stick is immediately moved HARD right and back (I think it doubles the trimmed values) by the FFB stick, Reset trim. Stick neutral is now as the trimmed hover, and will never be back to its normal position in the control helper window. Track shows the stick neutral position in the control helper window as in trimmed hover. Track attached. Added to "Pedals staying forever-trimmed by AI pilot even when "Pedals Trimmer" special option is OFF" problem using chief engineer view (key 3) is not usable. mi8trimbug.trk
