What has happened?

[BlacleyCole]

I wasn’t able Tom fly the Huey or anything for a couple of weeks. I tried to fly yesterday the best i was able to do was take off very badly from Nellie and fly down the strip fairly well and land hard at Vegas north or mccarian which ever is at the end of the strip opposite from the needle. Then tried making a simple mission in me where I take off from one of the bases near the Black Sea turn right at the coast, fly north up the coast til i came to a river turn right at the river follow it until it ends then turn right to rub. It took several attempts to get air borne i kept loosing my rotor once i finally got airborne was able to fly to coast then the engines I believed caught on fire and i was doing a good job auto rotating until i lower the throttle too much.

 

I don’t remember it being so difficult controlling the Huey where every wrong input cause a crash everytime. Has thing changed? Could it be the improvements in coding since the merge have made it more real-time and before i had a lag ang things happened slower but not slow enough to cause problems with the VR? I’m reconfiguring my controls since I’m not able to remember the current setup. I don’t need the view from the hat in vfr so with the PFT Puma you have a B4 grip with a trigger and a top , middle and lower button plus the hat. The collective has two 3 position toggles and two push put tons the closest toggle is a modifier for all the other buttons on the cyclic and collective so that gives you 3 thriggers, 3 hats and nine other button input on the cyclic and 6 push buttons and threethre position toggles.

 

I’m training to mimic the Huey’s cyclic in one mode, use one mode for ground ops plus lights, a second mode for in air ops and the center mode for emergency ops.

 

The three hats are vfr, kneeboard and search lights. I’m using the trigger for communication in all three modes its only a single contact so no intercom mode i plan on using it for voice attack trigger. I tried to collate my button function between real life Huey buttons and chucks guide configuration based on necessity but that wasn’t very useful for me. Let me see how you with a simple b4 grip and minimum collective buttons have your controls setup?

 

Again did the merge increase the processing time so much that its near instantaneous input rather than a slight delay before or did something else happen in the Huey code?

Looks like you exceeded EGT limits.
