solus Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 I know you will hate me and tell to read the manual, but I'm too old, tired and lazy to do that. As a good boy I checked my controls first, assigned and tuned axis, trimmer, collective etc. Made a quick mission (start in the air) and found myself on earth in 3 seconds past mission start. Checked "right-shift" - all axes are moving normally, but it seems that aircraft doesn't respond to controls. What I'm doing wrong, please, tell me. Извините за внимание
Draco Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 What were you doing when you crashed? Were you flying slowly and descending slightly? Could have been vortex ring state. Where you loaded up heavy and slowed down? You might have dropped below ETL and been too heavy for an out of ground effect hover. 1

It seems like my engine fails immediately. I used "active pause" and my blades stopped rotating in to minutes. Извините за внимание
S. Low Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 (edited) You set this mission up? Can you check what your starting altitude is, starting speed, starting fuel state? Maybe there’s an issue in the setup can you get the quick play free flight missions to work? also your collective controls could be reversed. Check the inverse option and try that Edit: also if you’re new to helos, don’t bind the “throttle.” That shouldn’t be moved in flight Edited June 17, 2021 by Relic 1
wowbagger Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 Can you post a trk file please? After you exit a mission there is an option to save the track (trk) file. no sig
hornblower793 Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 I agree with @Relic - the first place to start is check that your collective is not reversed (I had to invert mine to make it work), and the same for your throttle - I do have mine bound but it needs to be at full revs before you start raising the collective Windows 11 Home ¦ Z790 AORUS Elite AX motherboard ¦ i7-13700K ¦ 64GB Corsair Vengeance DDR5 memory @ 5600MHz ¦ Samsung 990 Pro 1TB SSD for OS, Samsung 980 Pro 2TB SSD for DCS ¦ MSI GeForce RTX 4090 Gaming X Trio 24GB ¦ Virpil WarBRD base with VFX grip, Thrustmaster A10c and F/A-18 grips ¦ VKB Gunfighter Mk4 and MCG Pro ¦ Thrustmaster Warthog Throttle ¦ VKB STECS Throttle ¦ Virpil TCS rotor base with Shark and AH-64D grips ¦ MFG Crosswinds ¦ Total Controls Multi-Function Button Box ¦ Pimax Crystal

Yes, sure. It seems my Hind doesn't react to input at all (the rest aircrafts are ok) Mi24 fails.trk Извините за внимание
solus Posted June 17, 2021 Author Posted June 17, 2021 I made a mission to start from runaway. I can see that my stick and collective are moving normally inside the cockpit, but it doesn't affect the helicopter from outside. Flaps, nothing moving. I'm really puzzled. Like there is some total breakdown in controls. Извините за внимание
wowbagger Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 (edited) Does it happen with instant action missions, all mission? Can you post a mission too please? There is something strange going on. If I load your trk in the mission editor and fly it from there, there is no problem... Edited June 17, 2021 by wowbagger no sig
Solution solus Posted June 17, 2021 Author Solution Posted June 17, 2021 Ok ladies and gentlemen, thank you all for the help! But Sherlock solved this mystery himself. I had "Game flight mode" toolbox checked, that's why Hind didn't respond properly. I'm sure it's a serious bug, because it shouldn't work this way. In other modules this toolbox basically prevents you from stalling. In Mi-24 module it shuts controls off. Извините за внимание
hornblower793 Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 (edited) It is a known issue and has been mentioned elsewhere in the forums that this has to be turned off at the moment Glad you have it working though Edited June 17, 2021 by hornblower793 2 Windows 11 Home ¦ Z790 AORUS Elite AX motherboard ¦ i7-13700K ¦ 64GB Corsair Vengeance DDR5 memory @ 5600MHz ¦ Samsung 990 Pro 1TB SSD for OS, Samsung 980 Pro 2TB SSD for DCS ¦ MSI GeForce RTX 4090 Gaming X Trio 24GB ¦ Virpil WarBRD base with VFX grip, Thrustmaster A10c and F/A-18 grips ¦ VKB Gunfighter Mk4 and MCG Pro ¦ Thrustmaster Warthog Throttle ¦ VKB STECS Throttle ¦ Virpil TCS rotor base with Shark and AH-64D grips ¦ MFG Crosswinds ¦ Total Controls Multi-Function Button Box ¦ Pimax Crystal
