danger

we have wipers and washers on the helo and shval, so how about a mod to put these to use, a dirt buildup mod. like bugs and dirt accumulating on the cam and screen so that you have to use the washers to clean.

thx chap

X52 is perfect BUT, be warned and do not use the throttle thumb wheel as the rudder. i have this setup and find that like the rocker system on the x32, it gets worn out and flicks the rudder full left to right in nanno seconds. Also, the way the 52 is set in regards to the cyclic, being a pressure plate, because the plate and the seat are made of the same stuff, plastic, it gets sticky, i have tried all sorts from oil to wax fo free it up but it always goes back to being sticky. this hurts when making fine stick adjustments.

Is the mission editor exactly the same as the one in lockon, if so , is there a thread to how to use it in respect to the trigger zones? thanks in advance

thx

i will try again. question for devs, what version of KA-50 is modeled in this sim ?

what version of KA-50 is modeled in this sim?

No i have not, if i was to read ALL the posts and All the 121 threads than i would be here for a month of sundays and to be honest, i would rather be flying than reading. Thats why there is this post so late in the thread

yeah, on my account there is some yellow bars next to a warning tag.

:( and another thing, why is there a warning bar on my posts, i am only asking for reasons (without having to search through loads of postings), as to why something was not implemented, after spending hours researching the issue. I really dont think i deserve the warnings and for people here to try and shoot me down in flames....................

IMHO maybe that should have been looked into when deciding to put RGM sites in the sim. obviously, the RWR would be needed if there are RGM sites available. :smilewink:

its the ka-50-2...........

well looking at all the research i have done , i will beg to differ and leave it at that. AND as there is no point using the hawk systems ect because there is no way of avoiding them, have to leave them out of any maps i build.

also, why would an aircraft need chaff dispensers if it had no way of knowing when to deploy the chaff by way of RWR systems? Its all a tad strange that some people dismiss the RWR on the ka-50 when everything points to its being fitted to the aircraft.

http://warfare.ru/?catid=260&linkid=1631 an even more creditable site,

my apologies then chap, i am currently searching some russian sites for more confirmation.........

yes i did look at the kamov site, but the avionics section was limited

i have already been to that site but did not find much on the ka-50, it just has general info. i have visited many sites all with slightly different info, but the most creditable was this one http://www.aviastar.org/helicopters_eng/ka-50.php

and please dont think i am trolling or anything as i am not, i would just like to clear this issue up. i have a lot of research experience and i am fully aware that items must be checked and counter checked many times over, this is what i do. but i cant see how a combat helo with this much tech onboard would not have RWR installed as RGM's are a common battlefield AA weapon.

you mean the A version?

well i looked at Kamov site and found this Self-defence: L150 Pastel RWR in tailcone, at rear of each wingtip EW pod and under nose; total of 512 chaff/ flare cartridges (in four UV-26 dispensers) in each wingtip pod. L-140 Otklik laser detection system; L-136 Mak IR warning. i also found that it used anti air missiles Igla or R-73 (AA-11 'Archer') AAMs so is Kamov wrong as well then ?

and what makes you so sure ? to say that ALL of any links are wrong there must be a reason for this. how can some 30 independent links to all different sites be wrong ? ( and it is 30) and i have not even been to wikki either.

hmmm, i found MANY links that ALL say the same, and by many i mean over 30.but posted only 4 to save space, would you like some more, if so, i will try and get some from the russian military.......

they do have RWR, http://www.pmulcahy.com/helicopters/russian_attack_helicopters.htm http://www.aviastar.org/helicopters_eng/ka-50.php http://www.airforce-technology.com/projects/ka50/ http://www.guncopter.com/ka50/ the list goes on......

any idea when the eng dvd will be released, i know it said early 09 but how early, i would rather the dvd than a download and would only like to spend out once ?
