Rotors mess up with FLIR brightness


some1

Recommended Posts

Whenever the rotor blades get near FLIR field of view, they cause image brightness to flicker. It's like there's some FLIR autogain always on, independent from manual gain control, and the bright blades flashing on the camera cause the whole image to darken.

The blades don't even have to be visible on the camera feed, just looking slightly below the rotor is enough to affect the image. The image brightness stops flickering when I look straight down, so it's not a shadow. 

Here's an example how rotor blades look on Apache FLIR footage, they don't seem to affect the rest of the picture.

The issue is back, IHADSS brightness starts to flicker whenever rotors get in the field of view (or close by).
