UH-1-rotor-failure2.trk Attached is a youtube video and track file. Please ignore my terrible "hovering". With the inputs toned down, it seems to happen with high bank angles.

I modified the axis inputs limiting the saturation and it's still affected. My current settings for X roll axis are Saturation X 100, Saturation Y 56 and 26 on the curves. After looking in the recordings and messing around with it more, it seems to happen when going from a left > 60° bank to a right > 60° bank. In that right bank, the huey pitches up about 20° so forward pressure is needed to keep level. I think in this forward input is when the rotor separation is happening. Maybe with this forward input, it's thinking there's negative Gs on the mast or something I'll work on posting another video and track.

I'm not all too familiar with the hind and I can't see from the video, but with how much the hind is shaking, are you close to Vne, max speed?

UH-1-rotor-failure.trkAttached is a short track failure from takeoff to rotor failure I'm using thrustmaster warthog controls. In a right bank, the left counter input is needed to stop the rate of bank and hold a constant bank. It seems this isn't a mast bump issue and more of a structural, rotor failure issue, so would I need to lower collective to reduce rotor stress? If that's the case, It would also tend to overspeed the rotor system

Made a video of the mast bump issue. Sometimes I am flying aggressively, sometimes it's my bad flying, but the issue seems to be at high angles of bank, around 90 degrees. The issue I'm talking about can be found at 3:10 in the video. High angle of bank with aft cyclic at about 70 kts. This is the 5th takeoff in the video. The issue seems to happen again at 3:40 and at 4:45 Am I just being too aggressive with it? Helicopters should be able to handle high bank angles.

No where close to 100%, 80% max is all I'll ever do. I can check my axis to make sure, but it even happens at slow speed ~60 kts with 50% collective

I'm experiencing mast bumping way more frequently after the March performance update. Even sometimes in level flight the rotor separates from the mast. I'll notice it's prominent going from a left bank to a right bank at about 40 kts with the same pitch input. Before the update, I would have to maneuver aggressively to induce a mast bump, but with this update, it seems to happen under normal flight characteristics. Any input would be appreciated, Tomcat 1-1

Currently using the Harrier in Open Beta, but getting really frustrated by all the bugs. Would I be better off switching to the release version of DCS?
