I really believe this site looks more and more like Facebook comments. If someone feel they should not have payed full price for it. Why the h…. did they do it then? I have seen pictures for month, seen all the videos. To me it looked very similar. I find it well modelled and the poly’s I see , I did see on the videos. I even got to see a long video of a satisfied real Kiowa pilot flying this thing. Not a thing was a surprise to me. This is a solid piece of software and I will learn everything about it. This is going to be fun

Wow. I won’t go into details but this chopper got airbags what a treat to fly simple enough startup, very stable and easy to fly , yet feels realistic. Fun to shoot with the guns. Next is missiles. I am so happy. Very good job

I read and heard a lot of pilot interviews Vortex Ring state is not much mentioned by chopper pilots I think this problem is very high in DCS, and might be very correct modeled for all I know. I have not read or seen any accidents in real life where this phenomenon has been mentioned. However when you fly in a game, one tend to push the envelope to the very end , and I think vortex R has taken more virtual life’s than enemy fire

If focusing being just a pilot and let George do his thing it really become pretty intuitive. As for controlling it I find it a bit wobbly in takeoff and landing, this is because I fly it very seldom. Take your time looking at yt tutorials buy a real chopper like Huey , or dl OH 6 mod. Latter became pretty good after update. It will provide good chopper handeling training. And it is quite fun flying.

Not sure I want that. If you land on ground you are sucked to the ground on skids enough as it is

That update was really something. many thanks

Happened once to me. I went from opposite direction and Petra found them. But first attempt he ignored the convoy entirely.

I Wonder how this issue can be solved people obviously got different experience Anyone have this offline in sp? If this happens in a public server again. Can you see if it is a problem on a quick mission afterwards. It is obviously a problem that is difficult to get a useful track. I fly little to none on public servers. Only coop with mates and campaigns and have absolutely no problems. It is clearly frustrating for all parts

For a rotorhead this is a no brainer. Having concerns on the purchase due to suspected quality issues? Well don’t if you do. For my sake, I have a long wish list on older chopper modules , but I do not make it a political issue. Too many post on social platforms I have read from angry men acting like this is important. Yeah, I spent a lot of my spare time in various flight sims since 2000 , and a lot in this brand since lock on But that is on me. I voluntarily spent my time with great fun and do not blame ED for doing so. And I bet I spent more money on hardware than most too. I still do not blame ED

He is a gohst from the past. He has several posts where he refuse supporting his angry complaints with a track. I just forgot. I would not bother answering

I am with Flappie on this. I cannot replicate some of the stories here at all and I fly it a lot. I can confirm that I partially had him not spotting targets. But kind of a realistic way. Not angry frustrating way like you expirienced. For all we know you got a mod interfere, or you simply ain’t doing it right. I myself have reported my own mistakes as a bug. Your tone is by the way very rude agains a man trying to help. Go out and take a beer or wrestle with a bear or whatever. Just do not act like this is that important. I personally think I got a cheat onboard most of the time. In servers he spots targets before he can identify what they are and I can choose target and kill 3 aa before coming too close and have to turn. A Human eye cannot spot what he does.

I fly it with flashlight enabled. it sort of mend the problem in a realistic way. I just put the mouse somewhere it do not compromise view when flying.

Agreed sad really. ED does not know what they have here. It is the best utility chopper around and a great chopper to hone skills. it is my absolute favourite. But it is kind of outdated. It is not going to be better when they release an early access Chinook.

I have said in earlier post about this, Petro give me no trouble worth mentioning in Coop. But I had him eliminate one area of targets and sometimes he can no longer track anything on next area of targets. One can see the sight move, so no stuck scope. If I reload and refuel he can see the same column he previously did not see but from opposite angle. This has occurred for me two times out of maybe 12 ish missions. In sp I got no problem at all. In public servers I had none of this. But I admit I get to take out up to 3 targets before I am toast most of the time.

I have vp force rhino. And it do not behave this way on mine. But I probably can make it do that by manipulate the software. I just think you wear out the stick if you get too much such reaction. VP force also got a very strong motor that easily can (probably) can brake something if you have strong settings on it with sudden movements

Yes this is the issue. When you really need crew chief point of view with heavy load and are too close to ground this is not recoverable and you crash. This report is exactly what I mean but better described.

It’s unknown to him. get it unknown

I do not need click pits for realism. I need it for not having endless button assignments and remember them all. For me SU 25 is a pain in the neck to remember where I assign what the times I fly it. A very capable aircraft which I love. But I always have to take half a hour before a coop flight just to see where I put my assignments. Click pits are simply easier to maintain a ok ish handeling of any ac.

Collective throttle axis did not work for me. I had to use buttons.

Me and a mate flew today and I must say this is a good mod. It is still some weird stuff happening flying close to mountain ridges. And in my impression when in ground effect. Over ground effect I have no problem hoovering. But all this can be me not being a real chopper pilot. I am deeply impressed by this.

Petro is shutting it down if you start carefully. If you make sudden violent manoeuvres he is doing it too late.

Yet that is the risk you take. One too early. One mistake and you call out a fiasco. One of many. Do you think any other sim is better. GB spent 9 years fixing one plane. I won’t even mention msfs. And here you are pointing out one mistake. On an early access , by any terms that was a beta to start with. it is simply not enough, to a normal community to collect the torches and forks But yeah you know. It got to be a storm.

I disagree entirely. ED modules has a good track record of delivering updates to its pre order customers. There are one or two third party that falls under your envelope. And they are not a major player in this game. Pre order make a lot of sense. And I am not following your chain of thought at all. We must learn a new system , we will be able to do so until more feature come. And we will know what to do with that feature when it arrive. Pre order got a bad reputation because of noisy drama queens do not know what it means buying access to an early access module. You are basically a cadet testing a beta. If you’re not up for it don’t. If you are buy.

These procedures are golden and a bit charming. If everything was just fire and forget I can do that with my cellphone

That is lack of imagination. And absolutely not true. I bought MI 8 the day it arrived. Still my favourite. You are making a huge thing about being a bit helpless. All you need is two guys , setting up a coop or join a server and look for something of interest. Take a brake for a while and do other stuff. We all need a break. I just stop when I notice a fatigue and fly GB or go hunting or fishing. Eventually you come back and have fun again
