Not sure if or why it was changed, but funny fact: the APU of the Ka-50 and the Mi-8 (and several other helos) are the same afaik - a " Iwschenko AI-9W". :o)

Count me in your protest march. The new one sounds like an asthmatic teenager taking a deep breath when started, and a fart coming from the oldest anus in the universe when shut off. Which is kind of a bummer.

 

But as you said, if it is supposed to be that way, so be it.

The old APU sound was the one of the A-10 IIRC, so i'd dare say that regarding realism, this is an improvement.

 

Edit: I could be wrong and the A-10 started out with the Ka-50 APU sound, i'm not sure. Either way, as was mentioned, there are a lot of part similarities betwen the Mi-8 and the Ka-50, among them the APU.

Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two.

Come let's eat grandpa!

It is realistic, Mi-17 uses AI-9V and Ka-50 uses AI-9 (a tiny bit different version), so it is normal that they both have very similar sound. I am all for it, it is really a nice little change for Ka-50 towards higher realism.

The sound have his importance but is not a capital fact for realism IMO.

 

 

It`s like the terrain mods...not really needed, but these tweaks push DCS surely to another level:thumbup:

A big THANK YOU!!!!!

 

KA50 got some fixes and I for one am really happy ED took action on them.

 

The new APU sound is awesome.

 

KA-50 is still awesome and even after all these years its still the best flight sim experience for me.

 

I don't own A-10C so I'll probably get shot down now :P

On the fence with the apu after so many years but I like the new engine sound. It look that the audio files are layered more that before.

got to admit the stock rotor sounds for the black shark are terrible.

 

sounds nothing like a helicopter imo.

The discrepancy between your sounds and the stock ones has always been a mystery to me. After I reviewed your Mustangs sound mod I'm sure your sounds are closer to the real thing, by a league. But with the '50... Have you acquired 50's in-cockpit sounds? Or do you re-create them based on research, adding attenuation and other processing to the external samples in your possession?
