Bastlwastl Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Hello there, i am just curious, as i can‘t find anything about it, does the „Collective Friction Clutch“ in the Mi-24 (and also the Mi-8) work or do anything? In the Ka-50 it resets the altitude for the altitude hode mode. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solution AeriaGloria Posted October 18, 2022 Solution Share Posted October 18, 2022 The collective has a hydraulic clutch that means it takes about 55-70 lbs of force to move the collective. Pressing the clutch button on the collective reduces the force to 5-11 lbs IIRC. So really in reality you only move the collective with that button pressed. It just happens to also cancel altitude hold I haven’t seen it able to “reset” the altitude of the altitude hold though in game…. Just turns it off 2 Black Shark Den Squadron Member: We are open to new recruits, click here to check us out or apply to join! https://blacksharkden.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a setting in special options to make it so collective can’t move unless that button is pressed, kindve emulating the clutch. For some set ups and preferences some people might like it that way. Your choice. You’re not missing out on anything by just moving your collective normally 1 Black Shark Den Squadron Member: We are open to new recruits, click here to check us out or apply to join! https://blacksharkden.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
