    Not stable

    Yes the Black Shark needs to be trimmed. The reason you are having issues is because you’re fighting your own AP channels for control of the helicopter. You’re trying to do whatever you’re trying to do and the AP channels are trying to keep the helicopter within the parameters of the last known trim.

     

     

    Hey,

     

    Is it necessary to keep AP ON ? I don't auto pilot , imo AP is needed only when you have heading /alt / air speed and everything set and let her fly.

     

    But this being a chopper I definitely would not know if it is needed. I guess you are talking Pilot Induced Oscillation ?

    Tha shark is extreemly stable, you must be missing something or just need to put the time in.

    Do you have your dampeners/AP channels on ( 4 Square Blue buttons to the right) You should at least have the Pitch & Bank channels on. Those are the top 2 blue buttons. After that trim, trim, trim & practice, practice, practice.

     

     

     

    Yep I have them all ON.

     

    Though i would not know much about helis, but I feel it could not be the trim reason being if I trim the C172 on climb / speed she will maintain that and climb perfectly (of course not comparing a fixed wing to a heli) , the shark is going all over the place and it is not just the nose up / down problem it is on all axis.

     

    BTW i am using the Logitech Attack 3. RCTRL + ENTER shows the correct caliberation of the stick.

    Hi,

     

    I am from India and have some real ground training in flights but never flown, as i had to cut the training short due financial issues, So i use FSX / XPX for training.

     

    I just started using DCS Black Shark, i really like the bird she is just cool. My problem is that the bird does not remain stable at all in flight. my joystick input is stable , the moment i leave the stick she tends to get her nose up / pitch up and also keeps bouncing around. Her attitude is not stable. Do i have to trim her ? I have never flown a heli except in FSX but that was only for a couple flights. I train on the C172 though.

     

    Any help appreciated.
