faviou2 Posted July 28, 2021 Posted July 28, 2021 Auto hover not working starting from cold in ground. It work s starting from air or hot in ramp. Any help? Thanks
swatstar98 Posted July 28, 2021 Posted July 28, 2021 Make sure the yellow lever is full forward, and if you have it bound to an axis make sure your axis is reaching the 100%. Add saturation to it so you make sure it does. Chinook lover - Rober -
faviou2 Posted July 28, 2021 Author Posted July 28, 2021 Thanks for answer. I have x and y axis 100% saturated. What i m doing wrong?
swatstar98 Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 Try not bounding it to an axis, and do it manually with buttons, so you have the fuel lever full 100% forward, 99% won't make it work. 1 Chinook lover - Rober -
scoobie Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 (I'm saying this off the top of my head, so please check this out in DCS for yourself.) If you insist on using an axis, then what @swatstar98 means for this case is, I think, that you need to LOWER the X saturation below 100% (Y at 100%, X at less than 100%), which is not something you normally want to do. The aim is to guarantee that when you push/move your hardware lever (or whatever you've got there) to the limit, the in-game axis is guaranteed to stay firmly at exactly 100%. Depending on your hardware, its age etc. it may actually never reach exactly 100% (only close to it) - which should be possible to fix by a re-calibration, or you may have a "noisy" potentiometer and your so-called "100%" may be actually "trembling" between, say, 99% and 100%, or worse. So, X saturation below 100% should prevent it. The tip or tips of the curve in "Axis Tune" window should be flat, horizontal. 1 1 i7-8700K 32GB 3060Ti 27"@1080p TM Hawg HOTAS TPR TIR5 SD-XL 2xSD+ HC Bravo button/pot box
faviou2 Posted July 29, 2021 Author Posted July 29, 2021 thanks anyway! i can t use a axis because i have a small joystick, and axis used to the view. fuel flow manually to 100% and bind keys to reach 100x100 i test everything and i m just wasting time scince 1 wek, hope Polishop fix this., so.. choppa going to hangar. thanks friends!
swatstar98 Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 It's not a bug from polychop since I can do it on my side. It has to be something related to your startup procedure. 1 Chinook lover - Rober -
faviou2 Posted July 30, 2021 Author Posted July 30, 2021 My fault. I wasn t turning in the magnetos system. 1

DmitriKozlowsky Posted September 22, 2021 Posted September 22, 2021 THrottle full FWD and left there for mission. Trim ON Fuel pump ON Starter Motor ON and left ON for duration of mission. (yes I know its weird. But that is how it works.) Autopilot ON AP Axis all ON. AP Mode ALT Trim cyclic such that top end of diamond just touches the center of control. Radar altimeter ON. Low alt bug set to 50 feet. Prior to takeoff at full power. Test AP for 10 seconds. Hover set to DOP (doppler) Bring helicopter to stable manual above above 15 feet but below 200. Fwd or lateral speed at 2knits IAS or slow. Roll less then 2 deg. Parameters for AUTOHOVER have gotten tighter. Yes it is too difficult and time consuming, in combat, to bring helo to auto hover so that minigun can be safely used. I am practicing side strafe method when using minigun variant.
