Polychop Simulations Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 (edited) Even though these videos can be found in another thread on these forums, this new thread will keep things more organised as I will be updating the opening post whenever a new video is released. Barandus, a former OH-58D Kiowa Warrior (instructor) pilot, is one of the subject matter experts who work with, not for, Polychop to ensure the OH-58D Kiowa Warrior module will be as accurate and authentic as possible. In the video's below, Barandus explains in great detail the various procedures, switchology and the inner workings of the systems with a lot of in depth background information. These videos are uncut, unedited and provide you with a good picture of where we are at in the development proces. The videos will show bugs and things that need to be added, fixed or adjusted. Kiowa Warrior Detailed Intro Pt 1 - Cockpit Orientation Kiowa Warrior Detailed Intro Pt 2 - Before Starting Engine and Cockpit Setup Kiowa Warrior Detailed Intro Pt 3 - Engine Start to Idle Kiowa Detailed Intro - Pt 4 Video by Casmo and Barundus on Scout Weapon tactics featuring the OH-58D Kiowa Warrior module See Syria by air...in the Kiowa! Is this map good for helicopter ops?

barundus Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Hey folks, I'll work on vid 5 in the series soon. Releases will start to slow down because I'll reach the point where showing alpha builds of the screens, menus, etc will be counterproductive, as there are still features that aren't implemented. Talking in depth about something that is yet to be fully fleshed-out or already identified as needing correction would just add confusion or false expectations. With that said, I'll definitely continue to provide content for stuff I feel you might find value in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barundus Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Folks - thanks for your patience! I've been delaying a new series of vids until the displays and FM are more "complete". I plan to do a comprehensive series of explanatory vids to delve deep into the various sub-systems, menus, and techniques of employment. No sense in doing anything now, until the systems are more in a final state. PC's working hard! <I'm just as anxious as you to experience the final product> Two weeks!

I can only speak for myself, but for me it doesn't have to be the next deep dive guide. Just taking the KW out for a ride and showing off while giving us some insights on how to fly the bird would make the waiting quite a bit shorter :music_whistling: Gigabyte GA-Z87-UD3H | i7 4470k @ 4.5 GHz | 16 GB DDR3 @ 2.133 Ghz | GTX 1080 | LG 55" @ 4K | Cougar 1000 W | Creative X-Fi Ti | TIR5 | CH HOTAS (with BU0836X-12 Bit) + Crosswind Pedals | Win10 64 HP | X-Keys Pro 20 & Pro 54 | 2x TM MFD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdotts Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Small video please I agree some insight video as to how to fly would be super informative and also pass the time till it comes out. Especially with how hard I heard it was to fly the last Polychop bird. No offense.....Just what I had heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
