BaD CrC Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 Dear PolyChop, I love your Gazelle. Really. Everything I can see and play with oozes the love you put into this aircraft module. And no matter what some says about the flight model, or the difficulty to fly her (same remarks appeared for the Ka50 in 2008, then for the Huey and the Mi-8 until they finally understood that it just takes practice), she is a work of art, a real french woman that you have to treat with the lightest touches. Once you find the right amount of pressure, she is doing pretty much anything you want. But it takes some time and she's not easy. Talking about woman, when comes the night, she really becomes even more fascinating. The light effects on the panels, the UV light and the beam of the microphone light following your trackIR movement is mind blowing (love the sunglass effect too during the day, but not as much as the mic light :) ) and the JVN are excellent to fly her. Fully immersive. There is nothing in this module that would make me think it is a beta version. Actually, I don't remember something with so little number of issues at first release. I have still to go through the use of Nadir, but I just wanted to praise your hard work. I hope this module will be a best seller as you really deserve it. https://www.blacksharkden.com http://discord.gg/blacksharkden
FishDoctor Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 Ah, thank you for this thread. In my opinion its really sad, everyone who can't fly the Gazelle is crying "the fm isn't realistic" and no-one just sais THANK YOU to Polychop. So, Polychop, thank you for this great work, I really enjoy this little beast. Keep on this good work.
NeilWillis Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 Definitely agree with your comments BaD CrC. I was half expecting Polychop to take note of all the frustrations associated with incomplete module releases, but they exceeded all expectations. She looks stunning, flies beautifully, and I really can't find anything bad to say. Thank you Polychop, and very very well done indeed! Now, where is the BO-105? I have a feeling that will make the perfect stable mate for the gazelle.
Wedge Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 Polychop, you have brought DCS back to life for me! The possibilities with this chopper are wide sweeping and to fly NOE is just a superb experience! Well do and thank you!
some1 Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 Congratulations on your first module guys, you've put a lot of hard work into it, and it shows. :thumbup: I'm sure you'll be able to sort out the remaining issues with FM given some time. Now, where is the BO-105? I have a feeling that will make the perfect stable mate for the gazelle. How about finishing one module before putting the next one on sale, eh?

Sryan Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 Nothing but praise from me. I don't even understand why it's still in beta? Apart from some minor things it looks complete to me. Check my F-15C guide
MBot Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 Congratulations to Polychop for a great first module. A realy solid release with no missing major features and no major bugs. And I think you made a great airframe choice, the Gazelle is truly a stick-and-rudder aircraft and lots of fun to fly and fight.

bart86pl Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 Hard not to agree- you guys did an amazing job withthis module, beta or not at its current state feels really polished. I have a full confidence that Gazelle will only get better. Thanks again for amazing job. [sIGPIC]http://forums.eagle.ru/signaturepics/sigpic73792_1.gif [/sIGPIC]

Jacks Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 Definitely my favourite module. I love it so much I built a collective to add to the realism winch this aircraft oozes. Well done polychop.

Flamin_Squirrel Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 In my opinion its really sad, everyone who can't fly the Gazelle is crying "the fm isn't realistic" and no-one just sais THANK YOU to Polychop. I've not seen anyone claim the FM is unrealistic because they can't fly it. I have seen several comments about the flight model coming from the most competant (real world) pilots, because they know what to look for. It might turn out that the Gazelle flies that way, but it doesn't hurt to ask the question. Blind fanboyism is just as unproductive as uneducated, unfounded criticism as it shuts down debate and prevents improvement I think the FM might well need tweaking but I still think Polychop have done a good job; I never expected it to be 100% correct on day one. 1

You can already do that, there is an option for "easier controls", which does the " tweaking" for you, if you don't want to train your muscle memory and get used to the realistic flight model. One thing that improves flying a lot is to carefully reproduce the start up procedure and not miss things like autopilot switches (all four), gyroscope alignment etc. Then if you have issues with short stick and twitchy control inputs, reduce Y-saturation on the cyclic a bit and may be the rudder, though not to much, as you need a lot of rudder to keep her strait in hover. I won't recommend curves, as they tend to give you a spot of exponential movement while moving the stick gentle and steady when you move it over the "fine-tuned area"... Just my 2 cent. :) Edited May 3, 2016 by shagrat Shagrat - Flying Sims since 1984 - Win 10 | i5 10600K@4.1GHz | 64GB | GeForce RTX 3090 - Asus VG34VQL1B | TrackIR5 | Simshaker & Jetseat | VPForce Rhino Base & VIRPIL T50 CM2 Stick on 200mm curved extension | VIRPIL T50 CM2 Throttle | VPC Rotor TCS Plus/Apache64 Grip | MFG Crosswind Rudder Pedals | WW Top Gun MIP | a hand made AHCP | 2x Elgato StreamDeck (Buttons galore)

It mostly comes down to the controls we have for the pc I believe? I'm not saying the FM is perfect or anything. But unless you have the top range hardware you will never get close to the real thing on the pc. We make do with what we can afford. Maybe one day...

Please, do not get me wrong. This is not blind "fanboyism". I just said that it is sad that there was much more criticism about the FM BEFORE anyone said something nice about the much good work. Yes, mostly it came from RL pilots, but if I remember right, they all said they never flew a Gazelle. But polychop had actually Gazelle-Pilots, and they said its as real as it gets, so what...
