DmitriKozlowsky Posted August 17, 2022 Posted August 17, 2022 I am very happy with MI-24P FPS and overall performance in Cypress with Syria map. 120-150FPS 2560X1440 @144hz refresh. Its the simulated engine that is weird in Cypress. I get low power and generator fail, and resulting inability of Hind to fly. It can't hover, and takes off only at 50 kph or greater. I thought that my start manual start up was faulty. But I get power issue that with empty helicopter 50% fuel and auto start cheat. Thank you

Dragon1-1 Posted August 17, 2022 Posted August 17, 2022 What's your OAT? If it's hot and humid (as it is in Cyprus in the summer, if you've ever been there on vacation you'd know), you'll lose engine performance compared to the standard day. A fully loaded Hind needs a runway for takeoff, sometimes it doesn't even take a full load. In Afghanistan this was a normal way to fly. It was not humid, but it was hot and high altitude means thinner air. Also, make sure you've throttled the engines up by rotating the grip. I'm not sure if autostart does that, but at minimum throttle power issues are expected. If you have something on HOTAS bound to the grip throttle, it might be overriding things. 1

Art-J Posted August 20, 2022 Posted August 20, 2022 ^ The problem is your descriptions are always too vague in the context of what you're experiencing and thus pretty useless. Thus, even the people who genuinely want to help you cannot do it, because there's just not enough information. Are you starting these threads to talk with yourself or to actually look for advice? Short replay track with only auto-start and takeoff/hover attempt would immediately tell if the issue is caused by some bug, or piloting error, or the way the mission is set up (ie. loadout, weather conditons etc.). 5 i7 9700K @ stock speed, single GTX1070, 32 gigs of RAM, TH Warthog, MFG Crosswind, Win10.
Flappie Posted August 20, 2022 Posted August 20, 2022 (edited) @DmitriKozlowsky You need a reliable answer. For us to give you a reliable answer, we need you to click "Save track" when experiencing your engine issue. Why? Because a track includes: The mission you flew (exact location, weather, time of day, programmed failures...) The track data (what you did in the helicopter). Tracks have another great value: one can take back the flight controls, and try different things. Reading your first post, the first thing that comes into my mind is: programmed failure. But I can't be sure about that unless you post your track (or at the very least, your mission). Edited August 20, 2022 by Flappie 5 ---

And why do you keep doing this exact same thing after years, countless modules and many people telling you every time to please post a short track(granted they don't alway work) and more information, always. It gets tiring, especially if you keep going, calling things bugs/nobody would implement a feature xyz that way in RL despite the fact the RL manual and RL pilots told you it works exactly that way in RL....in other forums you would have already been labeled a troll.

Thank you Do you experience the same problem when you configure a hot start in the mission editor? (Also: power gen fail often happens when you raise the collective too quickly. Perhaps being more gentle helps? )
AeriaGloria Posted August 22, 2022 Posted August 22, 2022 Manual says to move collective 1 degree per second. Engines take 8 seconds to rev up, and sometimes you will need to raise collective quite a bit to make engines rev up becuase the governor wont tell the engines to go out of idle until RPM is below 95%.

I dont have this issue in Incirlik or few mainland Syria bases I tried. Nor do I have it in any other map. Just on Cypress. At lowland fields. Could be that on Cypruss, I do have to collective a lot slower in Hind.

Good point!
MAXsenna Posted August 23, 2022 Posted August 23, 2022 But you still seems to be unvilling to post the mission/track to have people solve it for you. Why? 1

ZipLine9 Posted August 24, 2022 Posted August 24, 2022 Why let it go? Before you come here to complain, read the manual(s) for your appropriate modules, and as requested many times, provide track files. You do that, and people in this community will help you, and perhaps see you in a different light. 1
cow_art Posted August 28, 2022 Posted August 28, 2022 (edited) Ok for the sake of argument I just tested that. Hot Start in Cyprus. Helicopter at 100% weight. 25 degrees Celsius. I pick her up, hover a bit, fly a few 100 meters around on the parking lot and put her back down. No problem at all. Track attached. M24_Cyprus_Test.trk Edited August 28, 2022 by cow_art 4
