No. Mi-35 is just export marking of Mi-24V and it have retractable landing gear. Have plenty to see it RL in operation About the speed limit: I heard something like this when 24 guys explaining me why gear operation is prohibited above 160km/h but it have been a while and it is not aircraft I fly...

I would trust the export manual for Mi35P. It is prohibited to operate the gear over 160km/h but there is no limit for maximum speed when the gear is extended.

Yes it is. Maybe mine is bit more explained

Sorry, somehow text I wrote was not present in my last post. It is not same issue. Knob is pointing at correct spots directly against white triangles so there is no dubt about where is knob pointing. It work on both cockpits liveries- Default and English. About the problem: It looks like positions of Left, Right Generators and 115V transformer are shifted CCW because C-A position of L Gen shows votage between some phases of right gen as you can see on image and C-A position of R Gen shows voltage of transformer 115V. External power phases measurement works as it should as well as off position.

AC Voltmeter on 115V shows 0V even if PO-750 transformator is on. When checking Left Generator only voltages between phases AB BC shows 208V. The CA position reads 0V. When I turn on Right Generator suddenly CA Phase of Left generator reads 208V. Which means this is wrong wiring of AC voltmeter. When I check AB and BC Phase on right generator when it is turned on, it reads 208V which is correct. But when I check CA Phase of Right Generator it shows 115V. That is again wrong It should read 208V. When I turn off PO750 (Transformer to 115V) this position (CA of right generator) jumps to zero. So it shows the voltage on PO750 not on the Right generator between phases C and A. And position 115V which should show voltage on PO750 reads still 0V like it is OFF position Mi-24_AC_Voltmeter_wrong_wiring.trk

I am unable to start engine at higher altitude (alt 3200m) at lower temp (-14C). AI-9V pressure is slightly below 1,4kg/cm2 (min is 1,3) and engine revs max 18% and hold there for more than 3s. MI-8_Start_failure_3290m_press_alt.trk

Did some testing and found that Chaparral missiles are seldom detected by CMWS. AH64_CMWS_Chaparral_MIM72G_not_detected.trk

Is there any way to force ABRIS to use nav data from PNK-800?

Not true. You can turn the Anti ice system by black round button when it is in automatic mode unless ice is detected by RIO-3. Also asymetric engine power is horribly wrong. Electric anti-ice system is powered by generators which are conected to main gearbox not the engines.

ABRIS Shows GS in kph about 2 times more than is TAS on HUD and IAS on ASI. Looks like there is somewhere wrong calculculation between kph and knots. It is quick mission with zero wind, temp 20 deg C and standard pressure Ka-50_Abris_miscalc_GS.trk

I can confirm this behaviour. When I rearm Flares in chaff dispenser they are released in 2 bursts with 15 flares. Then program works normally. CMWS display displays correct count of flares. Means after first push after reloading 90 flares goes to 75 then 60 then continues 59. Flare_Rearm_to_chaff_disp_bug.trk

R- Localiser and G- Glideslope Channels of autopilot do not work. R channel do not make any corrections according to the position of localiser needle. G channel starts trimming to full forward trim no matter of location of glideslope needle. APP_AP_not_working.trk

Problem was on my side. My explanation of problem was insufficient.

When I press A/C button on MPD it show ENG page when I spawn on ground and FLT page when I spawn I flight no matter if I am on ground or in flight. It should show ENG page when I am on ground and FLT page when I am in flight. Track files included: ACpgWrongActn -spawn on ground no reaction on hover and transition to flight ACpgWrongActnFLT spawn in flight no reaction to landing even hard one to switch rusty WOW sensors ACpgWrongActn.trk ACpgWrongActnFLT.trk

It do not works with collective grip. CPG have to use handgrip to select rocets to activate COOP mode

In autorotation when you go under certain RPM of main rotor you are not able to gain it back via autorotating and you are basically dead. I find out that in apache it is around 84%Nr. Anyway the controls in autorotation even with high RPM are too sluggish. I cannot do proper flare and I just deplete some speed and cushion the landing.

I checked it with ctrl+Enter. I am just writing that even with full aft deflection on control overlay panel and full aft deflection with cyclic with low colective under 80kts I was unable to compensate the pitch down moment from stabilizator. You are then beyond the range of controllability. I find this behavior dangerous even for combat helicopter. Thats why I fill bugreport with tracks. Way to reproduce is turn on NOE/A mode in normal flight around 100kts. Then slow down with full collective down and under 80kts you are unable to compensate pitch down moment even with full aft cyclic.

I know it pitchs down below 80kts. That is expected behaviour. Unexpected is that cyclic do not have on some occasions enough authority when you have collective full down to overcome pitch down moment from stabilizator.

In low alt approach to LZ when I put collective down with NOE/A channel of FMC I encountered strong pitch down moment when I slowing down under 80kt which I am unable to compensate even with full aft cyclic. I was able to recover it only with increasing collective. AH64strangePitchDownMoment.trk AH64strangePitchDownMoment2.trk

Mi-8 Limitations proves your article. In standard flight it is way below retreating blade stall. But in higher piloting technique there are limitations like no movement with collective when in dive or steep climb or in transition from dive to climb. Moreover there is one Mi-8 crash which proves my theory about catastrophic destruction of main rotor. New helicopter from factory crashes after about 45min of flight from factory to operator. it was fully loaded with its equipment. Investigation finds out that they fly about 280km/h which is 50km/h more than they are allowed by Flight Manual in their conditions.

I woud rather say misalignment of rotary knob fixed positions. Texture seems fine as far as I know

AC voltmeter selector positions is not aligned with labels. You need to set meter to unlabeled position to see 115V

Some update for this. I was not able to replicate this behavior. However, after turning generators the anti ice system ammeter indicates consumption until I press the button to turn it off. This repeats after reseting generators.

When testing ARK-UD when I press test button the needle on UGR-4UK indicates about 140°-160° not 180°±10° as it should be. Find out after cold start on Syria map, than tested from hot start on Caucasus and Syria map. Third time on Caucasus map this test was about 3 degrees out of bounds.
