Jamesp1 Posted September 24, 2016 Posted September 24, 2016 So, I'm sure it's been asked before but I can't find anything recent. How does this module look in terms of missing features/bugs/flight model? Also, content: What missions/campaign are available now vs the final product? Thanks!
emko Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 Well, for completeness, I suppose that the M and L versions (anti-tank guided missiles and unguided rockets + 20mm cannon) are complete. The most recent variant is the one with Mistral missiles, I haven't tried it yet. A variant with snipers is yet to come. I'm not a real world Gazelle pilot so I can't comment the flight model. However since it has a stability augmentation system, the feeling is quite weird - it's a light and highly maneuverable helicopter yet thanks to the system it's rock stable. You can trim it for hands-off flying and (assuming no winds) you can go walk the dog. The helicopter doesn't crash. With the package you get 6 training missions, 5 instant actions and a campaign. All of it focuses on the M variant (the one with anti-tank missiles). The training missions go through basics, no surprise here. Same with the instant actions - some pre-defined scenarios for various types of flight. The campaign is very good - it's story based, comes with a document with a lot of information about each mission, including the political background. However the missions are quite long and sometimes you have to push both the helicopter and yourself to the limits.
Coxy_99 Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 Im not a helo fan myself but its pretty cool and easy to fly and hover (For me anyway) And its really basic weapons wise (Again easy for me) Worth a buy.
Fredo_69 Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 It's not finished, the flight model needs a lot of work before it can be called so! Look in the Bugs thread... https://forums.eagle.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=505 I hope Polychop are serious and will take care of it, before they add any more features of eye-candy to the model (it's already very beautiful to look at).
