leafer Posted October 30, 2007 Posted October 30, 2007 Had to split the video into two parts due to youtube ten minutes per video rule. part 1: part 2: And remember this, in the Ka-50, we are but lonely grasshoppers hopping from danger zone to danger zone. ED have been taking my money since 1995. :P

leafer Posted October 30, 2007 Author Posted October 30, 2007 No problem, Wag. Can't wait until the A-10 start-up procedures. :D :D ;) And I was not milking! Although I wish I had someone I could milk several times a day but that's for another forum. :D ED have been taking my money since 1995. :P
Ratgnagna Posted October 30, 2007 Posted October 30, 2007 Thanks Leafer! :D Sorry for my poor english... :helpsmilie: Bye! ;)
SimFreak Posted October 30, 2007 Posted October 30, 2007 It would be amusing if suddenly fuel would run out... ;)
ANGST Posted October 30, 2007 Posted October 30, 2007 Good thing only the KA-50 is modeled first, its gonna take a while to get the hang of that ;)
JaNk0 Posted October 30, 2007 Posted October 30, 2007 Woohooo Awesome, can't wait until Apache!!!!! >.< [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

britgliderpilot Posted October 30, 2007 Posted October 30, 2007 Are there any failures modeled for the Rotor Blade Explosives? Scary thought. So far I've only been ejecting when I suffer serious rotor system damage - prefer to autorotate in otherwise. The seat doesn't seem to like sinkrates . . . Explosive bolt failures, catastrophic rotor system failure . . . *wince*. Now here's a question - which would you prefer to eject through? ;) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v121/britgliderpilot/BS2Britgliderpilot-1.jpg
Eagle Driver Posted October 30, 2007 Posted October 30, 2007 Hey, if a guy can survive getting sucked into a Tomcat... Meh, the rotors are more intertia-y though, SLICE!

leafer Posted October 31, 2007 Author Posted October 31, 2007 Hey, if a guy can survive getting sucked into a Tomcat... Meh, the rotors are more intertia-y though, SLICE! Huh? You mean A6 Intruder or is there another video that I missed? ED have been taking my money since 1995. :P
badaboom Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 Gaaawwwd,6DOF looks fantasic in this,Thank You Wags & Leafer. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Eagle Driver Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 Huh? You mean A6 Intruder or is there another video that I missed? I dunno, it might've been an Intruder. I saw it when I was like 10, six years ago... or something. Back then, I knew what a jet was, but A-6 was greek. I was a train buff, big change made eh?

leafer Posted October 31, 2007 Author Posted October 31, 2007 basaboom, I'm not worthy to be mentioned in the same sentence as Wags. heh All thanks should be directed to ED and Wags. Oh! And those lazy beta testers, too. ;) Eagle Driver, Ahh. Ok, it was an Intruder; I think it was his helmet that saved him. Train buff? Bah...we've been using them for target since original Flanker. :D ED have been taking my money since 1995. :P
G3 Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 really enjoyed the new startup vid, see how the gauges did a self check thing, wow. 6dof looks so smooth, better than i have ever seen. so many buttons and switches , like even when you turn around, hadn't seen that before :) well done on the vid, look forward to more. they will make an ideal learning tool since most of us will be ka-50 virgins. it just keeps getting better and better:thumbup:
RvETito Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 Many procedures present in this video are pure maintenance as IRL.

britgliderpilot Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 I'd like to see how fast you can get up in the air.. there must be a lot of procedures that can be skipped... If you're in a real hurry, you can take off as soon as the engines are turning. You'll just have no countermeasures, no laser warning, no navigation, no radio, no HUD, no targeting, no artificial horizon, no ejection system, no fire extinguishers and no autostabilisation. This isn't recommended ;) I don't know how long Wags' startup is, but I'd figure on being in the air fully operational in a couple of minutes. If all else fails, leave the HUD warmup and ABRIS check to complete in the air . . . as long as the other dials and nav systems are powered on and working. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v121/britgliderpilot/BS2Britgliderpilot-1.jpg

RvETito Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 Some of them need time before the halicopter starts moving under it's own power in order to work properly like the INS, it needs time to allign. Some other you may not turn on at all but they are for your own dafety so it's up to you ;) "See, to me that's a stupid instrument. It tells what your angle of attack is.

nemises Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 Inertial Navigation system.. I believe it is a set of gyroscopes that are VERY sensitive to shifts in inertia, and so can track movement in any axis with a very high fidelity. Most military aircraft use an INS navigation system since it's completely self contained , unlike GPS which could, in theory, be jammed. I "think" the INS needs time to power up so that it can: 1) get its gyro's spinning at full speed, which is EXTREMELY hinh RPM, so takes time 2) calibrate to an external navigation system to pinpoint it's starting location. Infact, heres what wiki ses http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inertial_guidance_system
RvETito Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 True, the INS continously accumulates error that's why it has to be periodically corrected. The Ka-50 uses GPS correction (the GLONASS system), in case you loose a satelite the Shkval is there to assist you. "See, to me that's a stupid instrument. It tells what your angle of attack is.
