ED Team Groove Posted May 21, 2007 ED Team Posted May 21, 2007 I heard they will dump the Vikhr`s on the Ka-50 and go for AT-15 Khrizantema. Anyone heard this too ? I mean the russian army and not ED though :D Our Forum Rules: http://forums.eagle.ru/rules.php#en

Force_Feedback Posted May 21, 2007 Author Posted May 21, 2007 I heard they will dump the Vikhr`s on the Ka-50 and go for AT-15 Khrizantema. Anyone heard this too ? I mean the russian army and not ED though :D That's strange, I thought they planned the Ka-50 to carry the Hermes missile with a 15-18km range for the air launched modification, and 40 and 100km for the land based variants with an additional booster engine. The advantage over the Vikhr is a combined inertial-laser seeker, allowing for short illumination times (and even with the Vikhr the maximum laser time was something like 28 sec.), and possibly reducing cost that would be associated with a fire and forget seeker. The interesting bit is that the Khrizantema has radar guidance, while in the case of the Hermes it's clearly stated that radar guidance would be too impractical for aircraft use. Never heard of the Khrizantema being considered for the Ka-50. Khrizantema is one of the best, if not the best antitank missile made by the Russians ever, but it lacks the range needed for A-G emploment. But it may very well be adapted for the mi-28N, given its 'cheap, mass produced' status, and preference over the Ka-50. So the ka-50 with Hermes-A will be used for SEAD of close ranged ADS, while the Khrizantema + Mi-28 combo will be used for antitank warfare. Creedence Clearwater Revival:worthy:

ED Team Groove Posted May 22, 2007 ED Team Posted May 22, 2007 Forget what i wrote ! They want to use the 9M120 Ataka for the Ka-52 instead of the Vikhr`s. And maybe later the AT-15 ! Our Forum Rules: http://forums.eagle.ru/rules.php#en

Still makes no sense as the Hermes-A has 3x the range of the Ataka, and the ataka is radio guided, which needs new equipment, which means $$$ Creedence Clearwater Revival:worthy:

Maciver Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 Quick question, i searched to no avail, and don't wana read all 42 pages. Can you set her down anywhere? I picture me landing in an allyway somewhere waiting for fighters to pass over. lol So is it possible to land pretty much anywhere? I've landed on roads to avoid people in the current A/C. haha
GGTharos Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 Yes, you can. Just like with the Su-25 in FC. Of course, if you don't fit the rotor in the alley ... [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda
SuperKungFu Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 I'm interested in landing the ka-50 in a stream. I heard the water current is modeled in Lock on so you would actually see your dead aircraft float down the stream. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
enreisen Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 Black Shark will be with Directx 10 ??? or still with directx9 ???
Kaptein_Damli Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 What controls in BS? I am using Microsoft Sidewinder Pro (old stuff) with LOMAC and that works just fine. Homever, will there be need for extra sticks to play BS? Can you fly the heli with just and joystick? It takes more skill to fly a heli than a plane? How difficult will the flying be in comparison too FC? Robert. My moviemaking channel at YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/user/RobertDamli

It is essential to have some device that can provide you analogue signal for the collective pitch. A HOTAS system is a must for the helicopter, if you have pedals it will be even better. The throttle is the most logic option for collective stick. There are some people that have posted here home-built collective sticks but I'm not quiet sure how easy is that and what skills it requires. Use the search option to find it if you want to take a look. As for flying a helicopter- it's completely different from the airplane. You need to know helicopter's basics to fly it just like with the fixed wing area. For difficulty I can't say, it's up to the person, but for flight model realism lets just say that it can't be more realistic for a PC based simulation. "See, to me that's a stupid instrument.

We have tested Black Shark with this configuration. http://www.rcsimulations.com/index2.html do a search on Copycat long shaft It works very well. For a collective you need a long throw for precise control. For testing I use a standard CH throttle with control reversed (i.e. towards you gives more lift). It works fine, is acceptable, but is a revelation when you use a long throw collective! Jim Having problems?

GGTharos Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 That is up to ED, but seeing as they're shooting for fairly hard-core simulation of the new aircraft they're making, I'd guess no.

rogue_blade Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 i think everyone is gonna need to buy pedals to play BS. rudder control is so key for flying and lining up targets. and doing that with a stick twist ain't gonna be so good. its fine for flying the aircraft cuz rudders aren't very useful IMO [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
GGTharos Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 ^^^^ You're correct to a large degree. You don't -need- rudders per se, but they do make things easier/more natural. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda
