  1. Thanks guys...I am having a blast with the new fm. L is so much better without the tv blocking view.
  2. I was on here like 7 years ago (I'm not exaggerating) trying to explain the obvious core issues with the cyclic behavior of the DCS Gazelle. I even took an in cockpit video of a RL Gaz pilot, and made a GIF to illustrate the fact that the cyclic behaves normally - that is, it doesn't snap back to center after inputs. I have had alot of fun with the gaz (Not in a looong time, though, since the LIttle Bird mod came out. Highly recommended.), but the problems with it are substantial, and should have been addressed years ago. There is no "winning" an argument with those who still defend it. The appeals to "authority" while ignoring logic and evidence are tedious to say the least.
  3. Well, I for one am glad they aren't rushing things!
  4. Ok, so just to be clear, I hadn't flown in a while and was mistakenly mixing up the engine start switches with the idle detent commands. They are separate and have to be done sequentially, of course. It wasnt about the APU switch...Like Corbu said, that isn't something you have to press and hold. Thanks for the help my friends. Mods feel free to delete this thread, I doubt it will cause anything but more confusion.
  5. Well, knock on wood, its working now...I think I wasnt holding the apu switch for long enough. Thanks guys.
  6. I learned to start this thing the day it came out...Like I said maybe 4 times already, the engine start switches don't start the engines, post APU start...
  7. from 3:30...I hit ralt+home, rshift+home, and nothing. Doing everything he does apart from MFDs... Please give me a time stamp for "crank switch" I cant remember how to post tracks, I will have to look that up if this doesnt help.
  8. I re watched a tutorial video and nothing about a Crank Switch...
  9. Thanks for the reply...I havent messed with log files in ages, hopefully this is what we need. My quick startup routine -battery on -apu cover up, apu start -rshift home, ralt home nothing from here...throttles move to idle visually, and my throttle binding still works visually... Also, autostart does not work. Thanks dcs.log debrief.log
  10. I cant get either engine to start. Autostart doesnt work either, and hangs up at "waiting for EGI". I started my flying session by front seating another D, then tried to start one up. Tried restarting and repairing - no luck. Thanks
  11. Just wanted to bump this obscure lil thread here...in case anyone ends up forgetting how much fun Polychop has given some of us. Im as bummed as anyone about not hearing anything for a while on the Kiowa - I love LIGHT military helis - but these guys took on an extreme challenge in their goals and have the same passion as their customers. Just wanted to say.
  12. I was about to post a question about the AH1Z mod - glad to see this discussion and that it's in the works. We had a great time with the AH6J in the AO mods server over the weekend. Thanks to whoever is hosting that. Ive been wanting to fly the Little Bird in multiplayer forever. Also wondering if I could be of use to anyone regarding 3d modeling. I work in Solidworks, and could export STLs or the like if that would be helpful. I know Autodesk is typically used though, and I don't have any experience in that.
  13. https://www.helisimmer.com/news/polychop-added-pilots-kiowa Hopefully this means the modeller ran out of other things to do...idk
  14. I'm pretty sure I saw a note in the roadmap a few days ago indicating this was on hold...Anyone know about that? Looks like the post was removed.
  15. Ah...sounds like less of a sprint to the finish line than I had hoped. Oh well, so we wait. Thanks Ramsay
  16. "...we will be working on implementing and adjusting system specific features" Can someone explain what they meant by this? Features specific to the user's pc system? Like force feedback, VR, etc?
  17. This is awesome! I know I'm late to the party but if anyone wants to jump in a multiplayer server (Syria would be great) to form around in this thing let me know...
  18. Ahh, the inviting aroma of declassification...:thumbup:
  19. I'd bet money this will be brought up when we ask why no Kiowa in 2020...
  20. Yes, it turns out that got turned on somehow. Solved the problem...thank you Swatstar98.
  21. I could swear that after the last update, the gaz FM changed. I thought it was my imagination, since I could find no info about it on the forums or update description. Then, someone on a multiplayer server said there was indeed a change...? He said it was something about trying tech from the Kiowa. Honestly, it just feels sluggish and overall much worse. Will someone please fill me in here?
  22. Unpopular Opinion: Release the Kiowa soon, before it is completely finalized. For all we know, everyone with a triple-digit IQ could be locked in a gulag by that point. FM, basic weapons, I'm good to go.
  23. ${1} I put together some light helicopter multiplayer footage in Xplane (post-Vulkan), if anyone is interested...
  24. Thanks! I've had a blast with the L version. I couldn't get my game audio to record, it would have been better with that 20mm cannon. What a sound. Yes, I wish we had a heli server set up in Normandy. Its an amazing map down at treetop level. You should check out that drummer's channel...Only for those with discerning tastes, apparently...LOL
