Reaper6 Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 You need to have both engines off and blades have stopped fully before repair begins. reaper6 "De oppresso liber" NZXT Phantom Full Tower, Intel Core i7 4960X Processor(6x 3.60GHz/15MB L3Cache) 20% Overclocking, 64GB DDR3-2133 Memory, NVIDIA GeForce GTX Titan Black-6GB SLI Mode(Dual Cards), Gigabyte GA-X79-UP4 Motherboard, ViewSonic PJD5132 SVGA Multi-Region 3D Ready Portable DLP Projector, Track IR 5, Thrustmaster Warthog, Cougar MFDs.

kpack Posted April 10, 2015 Author Share Posted April 10, 2015 hmm ok how do i shut down everything so i can make the repair + then the coldstart again.... there is no tutorial for shoutdown Oculus Rift DK2 F15C + KA-50/A10C is AWASOME :pilotfly: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King_Hrothgar Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Do what you did to start it, except in reverse. Though if you're in a hurry, simply hit the two fuel cutoff valves on the back left of the cockpit to immediately kill the engines. It will still take a minute or so for the rotors to fully stop.

Rogue Trooper Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 As King_Hrothgar says but I would also suggest slapping on the external power before shut down as this will keep the other systems running and they will not require shutting down (do not forget to flip the external power switches).

kpack Posted April 10, 2015 Author Share Posted April 10, 2015 (edited) ARRRGH NEXT mission or same misson, i was shoot at had no landingear and no left wing. but i hit about 9 targets . And i manged to land :thumbup: Then i shut of the to engine pumps on the left (big red 2x) after rotor stopd i hit f8 then f3 then i here ok( and my copit door was open , and rearming worked fine )... waited 5mins nothing happend ? :helpsmilie: what do you mean with external power switches (where) sry i can do the cold start blind now after 50x trys, hehe but i dont knowth e names. hmm perhaps i should try to get not hit hhehehehe p.s. i love this game so hard but so rewarding and in oculus dk2 the ka 50 is so so amazing Edited April 10, 2015 by kpack Oculus Rift DK2 F15C + KA-50/A10C is AWASOME :pilotfly: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isegrim Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 EXT AC and EXT DC Switches are right in front and behind(Relative to the fuselage) the Battery switches. "Blyat Naaaaa" - Izlom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sokol1_br Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 (edited) Probable you forget to put the radio switch in "ground crew" - left console, the black "chicken head" knob right of R-800 (orange) dials. If not you are able to send (F8, F3) request for rearm and refuel or repair, but the ground crew don't hear. When they hear you hear voice message and text confirming. Other cause can be that you don't tune the R-800 on FARP (or airdrome) frequency, if not will happen the same thing, you are able to "talk" on radio, but anyone will hear. :thumbup: BTW - To use external power is need contact the ground crew requesting.

King_Hrothgar Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 You can also pop open the cockpit door. They'll always here you then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue Trooper Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 You can also pop open the cockpit door. They'll always here you then. as mentioned above. This is what I do. Open door Command external power. Command repair. Command re-arm. Switch on external power. shut off engines via the cut off valves. Apply the rotor brake at or below 20% rotor RPM. repair will start once the rotors stop moving and all systems will remain powered from the external power supply.

You can only ask for repair once the engines are shut down. Try asking for repair as the final thing to do. Fancy trying Star Citizen? Click here!

Reaper6 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Wrong order. You can only ask for repair once the engines are shut down. Try asking for repair as the final thing to do. Actually you can ask for repair at anytime after landing. However, repair will only begin after engines and rotors have come to a complete stop.

Sokol1_br Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 (edited) I like flight "simulation" - but don't give a clue for "what if" simulation, this press a button/command, do this or that just because this is in manual, or "real pilots" do this, but without effect in the game. For the same reason I dont bother with things like check fuel quantity, pressure... in simulation this never fail. :) Rearming Ka-50: just landing, call the guys through Interphone and they do the job.

Dejjvid Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Throttles idle, Cut off valves down, slowly increase collective to slow the rotors. RPM below 20%, engage rotor brake. Repair, rearm, refuel.

Sokol1_br Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 1. Rearming is irrelevant to the subject of the thread. Yes you are right, the OP ask for "repair". In this case - repair - is need lower the Cut-off valves first. The rest, open door, switch battery, external power... still "what if". :) My point is just that there's no penalty for dont follow the manual. :thumbup: But each one do his own "simulation". :joystick: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieHard Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 * Repair is pretty bugged, some stuff won't be fixed and you will need to take a new helicopter. If I am in need of repair, especially to get the laser fixed, I deliberately land hard to break the landing gear to force a repair fix. Sometimes a repair will not work on the 1st attempt. Sometimes I will not get an engine start on the quicky-startup and have to restart manually. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
