Have no idea, but does it change anything? I can have MY opinion, and he can misunderstand me as well. And he doesn't know what I do for living, too :)

So you think that if anything it 'classic design' it can't be advanced? And steering system in simple robinson heli is same like in Mi-24? Read about SAU or AP on Hind and maybe you'll understand that there's a 'little' difference. And most important-where I posted, that Ka-50 steering is less advanced than Mi-24?:)

Of course I thought about SPUU-52, my mistake ;) I think that Ka-50 should have similiar system, who cares about more weight if you could say 'bye' to your rotor instead? SPUU-52 is not so obvious in tail-rotor machines-risk of losing rotor is not so big and this system can be disabled manually in some conditions, but it seems VERY useful in machines like Kamov helis. Steering system on Mi-24 is very advenced, I don't think that Kamov is far behind in this matter.

So there's nothing like SPUU-57 in Mi-24?

Lets hope that it was only "early alfa" version behaviour ;) And that AH-64 rotor is badly scritped event, too :).

You're right, incrasing AoA in every blades on one rotor should be corected by decrasing AoA in the other rotor blades-only then heli won't start to climb.

So that would make Kamow helis only machines that use rotor rpm for steering instead of blades angle of attack. How technically realise quick rpm change? It's not very likely for me. I thought about incrasing AoA in one rotor while not changing it in the other one, but I'm not sure if it could work.

I wonder how it is technically realised. I know how steering of typical helicopter works, how it rotor and blades are working, and everything should work the same in twin-rotor construction. Everything but turning around. Any ideas? :)

New version of Blackhawk (probably M) is the quitest heli I ever heard-impressive.

How can we talk about realistic flight model when tail rotor physic works totally different than in the real life? Almost all soviet machines have CW working main rotor (Mi-2, Mi-8, 14, 17, 24 for sure), all versions of Hind except Mi-24A have pulling tail rotor. I was impressed with main rotor and blades physics on Ka-50 in videos from this sim, but now I'm not so sure about all this "reality". EDIT: Another thing connected to rotor physics and damage model-in "Main herz" video rotor of AH-64 after rocket hit immediately stops. Interesting behaviour.

Hello everyone I've noticed that Hind which was hit by SAM and lost tail rotor starts to rotate clockwise in this video. I hope the rest of game physics works better!
